Here are 10 things to help you identify whether you associated yourself to Jack Sparrow too closely.
- A traffic police stopped you for random check. When the office asked for your name, your reply was ‘What do ye say to 3 shillings and we forget the name?‘. And you were actually thinking that the officer will take your coins and called your Mr. Smith.
- You were caught red-handed lying in front of your girlfriend. Your action was slowly bowing out and said, “Me, I’m dishonest, and you can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it’s the honest ones you have to watch out for…‘”
- You were at your friend’s house when he offers you whether you want to drink coffee, tea or simply plain water. Sighing and said “Why is the rum always gone …” was your reply.
- Instead of saying “No”, you will say “I’m disinclined to acquiescence to your interest“. (OK.. this one is actually from Captain Barbossa. But he was once Jack’s first mate, so there is possibility he got it from Jack Sparrow)
- When someone say thanks to you, your reply is “Sticks and stones, Love. I saved your life and you’ve saved mine. We’re square”
- When you tried to convince someone, you always ended your sentence with “Savvy?”
- When your friend asked you about your life principle, your answer is started with, “For me, the only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do…”
- You were at the computer exhibition. You were totally blown away by the new gadgets. Looking at the gadget, you slowly whispers, “That is interesting …. Very … interesting”
- You saw someone on the train and you think you known him/her sometime in the past. You break the ice by saying “Excuse me. You seem somewhat familiar. Have I threatened you before?”
- You often advises your single friends by starting it with “You need to find yourself a girl mate …”
OK, this post was meant to be a joke for humorous purpose. Please don’t do especially item no 1, no matter how much you love Jack Sparrow. Finally, I would be delighted if you could share silly things you’ve done because of Jack Sparrow 🙂
About Hardono
Hi, I'm Hardono. I am working as a Software Developer. I am working mostly in Windows, dealing with .NET, conversing in C#. But I know a bit of Linux, mainly because I need to keep this blog operational. I've been working in Logistics/Transport industry for more than 9 years.
My partner always knows everytime I just watched (or rewatched) Pirates of the Carribean. I’d say something accompanied with a twist of a hand gesture. And she’ll frown, “Again?”
Hehehe.. well sometimes (huhu..yeah right) I quote Jack Sparrow when I speak to this one friend, to the point that now every time he makes an offer, he will end it with “So, what say you?”. And I obligingly answer, “Ayeee!!!” 😀
Added the image to make it looks better 😀
Sigh… If Johnny Depp is here, I think he will shout ..CAPTAIN..Jack Sparrow…didn’t believe I forgot to write Captain before Jack Sparrow.
Whenever I het stuck on a word, a word I can’t remember, I’ll start out doing the “parle” thing that Captain Jack Sparrow does. It’s pretty funny to my family. And also, everytime I can quote Captain Sparrow, I will quote Captain Sparrow.
Good idea. Need to practice though. That ‘parsley…parsmi..palelulu..’ sequence needs time to master. 🙂
lol, I filled a bucket with sand and danced around singing “I’ve got a jar of dirt! I’ve got a jar of dirt! I’ve got a jar of dirt! and guess what’s inside it!”
That earned me quite a few stares….
Salute to Z (^ _^)/
Hmm.. it’s been months since my last dosage of POTC. Time to refresh my memory again ….
Pretty much every time someone says, “What?” I’ll repeat them in a higher pitch. Like Jack did in DMC. Also I sometimes end up walking like him and not realizing it for a while. I am so weird. But it’s fun being weird and random!
Haha ya I usually end up saying savvy a lot 🙂 my friend and I say a CAPTAIN jack sparrow quote after each message and I usually end up writing jacks initials on my papers
thanks mate. I was arrested because apperently i was caught “trying to bribe a police officer” or something stupid.
