I was reminded of some of "Sailor Speak" the other day. Most of that went with my grandfather's generation when they left in the 80s. Of cause there's some still used today. Not so much the colorful bits.

"Your full of whale piss", Skeive Bilgerat", "Suck a belaying pin" and "Shove a Marlin Spike in your barnacle encrusted aft porthole" are the only ones that come to mind. "Talk like a sailor. You can work like a sailor."

Was talking with my mom the other day and she told me, "Grandpa would tell people who he got mad at, 'You're full of whale piss skeive bilgerat'. Really nasty stuff like that." 🤣

The only time we would actually talk like that was on September 19th...International Talk Like a Pirate Day...

I don't know any sailors.

*tips hat*

Now you do...
