I wish I were a sailor.

Post Reply New Topic

Today, I want to talk about sailors and why they are awesome.

- They sail all around the world.
- The wrestle with sharks.
- They study marine life.
- They get to ride on whales.
- They hook big marlins.
- Women like them.
- They get to explore the south seas and see the midnight sun.
- They use the stars to navigate.
- They are allowed to swear. In fact, when you are a sailor, swearing is mandatory.
- They measure distances in knots and fathoms. Feet and meters are for landlubbers and scurvy dogs.
- They search for buried treasure.
- Some sailors have super-awesome ninja reflexes, which they use to catch flying fish in mid-jump.
- They are strong to the finich, because they eat their spinach.
- Sailors don't even have to obey the laws of reality the way us landlubbers do. A corncob pipe can be a blowtorch. Spinach can do anything. Anything at all.

Damn. I wish I were a sailor right now.

I'm a pirate

[joke] What is the motto of the French Navy?

In English it's 'To the water, it is time!' , in French it's 'a l'eau, c'est l'heure' [/joke]

Aren't you worried about sea sickness?

Or norovirus, that horrible, extremely contagious stomach virus that a lot of people get on ships? although it seems to be mostly on cruise ships.

Or storms that could capsize your ship and you end up drowning?

Whirlpools?

Tsunamis?

Bloodthirsty pirates?

Talking crabs and evil sea witches?

Sirens that lure sailors to a watery grave with their mesmerizing singing?

THE SCURRRRRVY!!

Sailors tend to only have Water and Fighting Pokemon though!

edit: I am of course referring to the Trainer class called Sailors in the Pokemon games
