Piratey Skullduggery

It's Talk Like A Pirate Day, minions, but I really don't know much about bandwidth or encoding or seeding bitcoin frame rates, so I'm afraid I can't hook you up with free GoT downloads.
Sorry.
But I CAN show you how not to draw a skull and crossbones:
See, as a rule, you don't want knitting needles stuck in a bicycle seat.
But I'll admit the rules here are more like "guidelines."
What's that? You want the redhead?
Drink up, me hearty; he'll look better that way.
And speaking of really bad eggs:
X marks the spot where the evil egghead hovers.
Remember, if there's ONE thing Pirates like, it's bad puns, numbering things, and the letter...
RRRR
Pirates also like to growl. And snowflakes. And... running in circles? Look, pirates like a lot of things, OK? Pirates have layers. Like an onion. Or chip dip. Or a big floofy skirt. Or... dang, can't think of anything else.
Thanks to Bailey G., Alison W., Robin H., & Christi for not giving me a SINGLE opportunity to make a good "seamen" joke. What kind of minions are you, anyway?

OOOOH! Talk Like a Pirate Day!!! Here I go: Look at me... Look at me... I'm the wrecker now.
Also, I found it interesting to learn that aliens have pirates too.
That "X marks the spot" cake resembles an alien, more than a pirate.
Nice treasure map! Just put a skull and crossbones on it and it'll be perfect.
Pirates are like onions? Oh, you leave 'em out in the sun, they get all brown, start sproutin' little white hairs...
These people should walk the plank
I think that last one is for the Family Circus pirate.
Huh? Bandwidth? Bitcoin? Did you mean this for some other post??
Yay cup cake cake!
What happened to all the rum?
(Hey, I need *some* way to deal with Monday & all these cakes...)
@Jessica -- I think she was referring to media/internet piracy. It threw me at first too!
"Knitting needles stuck in a bicycle seat" made me actually laugh out loud. Thank goodness I don't share an office!
@Angela S: You found Grampa????
=^-.-^=

Yep, egghead pirate looks more like alien pirate to me.
Love the computer piracy jokes :)
I thought they liked the letter X. X as in, X marks the spot.
Pirates may love the letter ARRRR, but their first love is the C!
@sendingtheclowns πππ
It's a Shrek reference.
Rrrrrrrr! It's the dreaded pirate-opus.. Only 4 of it's arms got chopped off, matey! Rrrrrrrrr!
These are just Aaarrrrrful!!!
And... running in circles?
Yes, βWhen in trouble, when in doubt, run in circles, scream 'n shout!β
I just lost it on the Pirates have layers bit.
I would swear cakes 2 and 3 were amateur efforts.
Off-topic, but I'm very encouraged to know I'm not the only one who uses the word "floofy" when describing articles of clothing. :-)
Oh man lol. I set my Facebook to only use Pirate language and it is hilarious just like these wrecks. Half look like aliens. Scary rum loving aliens.
Two things (which may or may not have already been mentioned to some degree or another, but I didn't read through all the comments).
A. That is not an inverted egg cake. That is CLEARLY an extraterrestrial head. Knowing the way wreckerators work, he might be surveying his crop "circle"... which is an X.
And 2. Another thing with layers: "Parfait! Evr'ybody like parfait!"
@AngelaS: It's tommorrow, and I just saw this, so maybe you won't, but thanks! I saw that movie, but too long ago to remember....so maybe I didn't.
=^~.~^=
Parfait got layers. Everybody like parfait. :)
Codpieces are layers, right?
Sorry, spent some time at Kansas City Ren Fest...
That last one looks like a deconstructed Winnie The Pooh...
