Talk like a pirate

Smiley Saturday
I really wasn't going to ... but this was so funny.
Yesterday, I discovered Pirate 'english' on Facebook. 
A friend, CB, I met at a real life pregnancy loss support group told the 'crew' about pirate english.It had me staggering off the plank laughing. 
This wasn't the funniest bit !
A different friend of mine F (who doesn't know CB) who I also met through a pregnancy loss support group chats to me regularly on Facebook and MSN. Late, last night I told her how to make FB 'talk' pirate english as she needs a good laugh.
Tonight, I quickly log on my computer to actually turn it off and I see F had tried to chat with me. I read the following ...
F says:
hehehehe
F says:
Dh is going off at me about facebook
F says:
I logged into his and put it on 'pigeon'
F says:
he went to use it and was like omg wtf have they done to facebook!!!!
F says:
hehehehe

...I reply 
Trish says:
pigeon or pirate ?
5 mins later chat window peeps

F says:

F says:

Trish says:

F says:

F says:

Trish says:
pigeon
F says : I need some sleep LOL
Trish says:
so did you enlighten DH
F says:
nup
F says:
he is going mental
F says:

Pirate says things like...
Th' saucy wench Trish be usin' Ye olde Facebook with the tongue o' English (Pirate)
'Trish be eyein' this with pleasure".
  "Trish flapped her gums " 

If you want to know how to do it too - ok I know you might think I some people have too much time on their hands but really I don't. I just really needed a laugh.
STEP 1: SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF YOUR FACEBOOK PAGE. 
STEP 2: CLICK ON ''ENGLISH US'' 
STEP 3: WHEN ALL THE DIFFERENT LANGUAGES APPEAR, CLICK ON ENGLISH (PIRATE) ...
STEP 4: HAVE FUN

Pirate English, that is too much. If I talk in pirate English, will a dirty sexy pirate come find me (someone like Orlando Bloom from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies)?

You boys are so cute and I love the t-shirts.
