space pirates.

This was kind of brought about because I am playing The Secret of Monkey Island, but only in the sense that you're "trying to become a pirate" in the game. I have always found pirates fascinating and not in the way of Elizabeth Swan, see Pirates of the Caribbean. I do not want to become a pirate, I can be a wuss and can not see myself pillaging. BUT sword fighting and drinking, sounds like an okay job, plus if you ask most people I am probably surly and snarky enough to do it. Also, as much as I want to be on a boat or on water, in general, what intrigues me more are space pirates. Space pirates, well get to be in space, and I was never good at physics so being an astronaut was never going to happen. Space pirates do basically the same thing as "water pirates",  but they seem more hygienic, maybe not as much as we're used to, but more is more. They also seem to have guns, not swords, I think I would change that, I don't like guns, swords are much cooler, though I still would not be comfortable killing. And where am I getting the gun idea? Probably just from Firefly and originally Tenchi Muyo!, so just because they were space pirate cowboys, not to be confused with Space Cowboys, does not mean I have to. Wow, maybe I do fall victim to too many forms of mass media.
