Talk Like a Pirate Day
Wednesday, the 19th is official Talk Like a Pirate Day! As the name would suggest, this is a holiday about letting out your inner pirate. Do things you want to, don't worry about what people think, and, of course, use words like "Arr" and "Avast!"
And no, I'm not making it up myself! Anyone who hasn't heard of this wonderful national holiday has obviously been living under a rock. And I guess there are a lot of rocks out there... That or you're not a pirate fan. But that's no excuse!
