  Pirates or Ninjas?

Heck, I'm not sure where the debate started, but it has raged on for a long time.  Which do you prefer, and why do you do so?

Pirates: 9
Ninjas: 8

Wow, really surprised.  I expected ninja to do a better showing than this.  Anyway,  I guess Imperials prefer pirates.

Pirates because they drink rum, and they dont shower.

Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.

What about Ninjapirates.  I'm both a Ninja and a Pirate.

I used to like Ninja's but since watching Pirates of the Carribean it changed my whole outlook on them. They Lie, cheat,steal,drink rum and dont shower its like a dream come true :P

Pirates, cause they have ships, guns & swords (actual swords not like the Ninja's "Strong and Agile" excuse for a thin, really light, breakable, too long, blunt sword).

I'm gonna have to say Pirates. The thing with Ninjas is that there to strict and they follow to many codes. Pirates on the other hand only follow one. The Pirate Code. They get to have fun, get drunk and best of all, roam the seas. Ninjas just do missions and when they get caught kill themselves. GO PIRATES!

how about warriors? In the Roman sense, pirates dont appeal to me, and neither do ninjas. Pirates are only paid by freelance (share the booty) and ninjas are throwaway assassins.

Well, Pirates loot, pillage, plunder and drink, they talk like badasses, have awesome stories and legends, sing great shanties, float around on ships, and get to be all fearsome all the time, they keep what they take and give nothing back. Ninjas dress in funky black pajamas and carry the fragile ninja-to, they do very little that is seems like much fun and are generaly too confined for a free spirit like myself. Yarg, speak like a pirate.

Also, that site about ninjas freaking out and killing people is pretty effin stupid, and annoying, it's made me dislike ninjas more than I ever did before, and i never thought much of them before.

"The way of war is a way of deception. When able, feign inability; when deploying troops, appear not to be. When near, appear far; when far, appear near. Lure with bait; strike with chaos. If the enemy is full, be prepared. If strong, avoid him. If he is angry, disconcert him. If he is weak, stir him to pride. If he is relaxed, harry him; if his men are harmonious, split them. Attack where he is unprepared; appear where you are unexpected. This is victory in warfare; it cannot be divulged in advance. Victory belongs to the side that scores most in the temple calculations before battle. Most spells victory; least spells defeat; none, surer defeat. I see it in this way, and the outcome is apparent." -- Sun Tzu

Thats not true for all Pirates, what about those two girl pirates? They weren't always drunk, and neither was her Pirate husband.

The thing about pirate women is they're too dirty. Dirty is good, don't get me wrong, but not when they're literally dirty.

Ninjas.

Yes, but you also have a better chance of getting AIDS from pirates. And a lower life expectancy.

Ninja do NOT have any sort of moral code, unless the individual wants one.  A Ninja can do whatever they want.  There really isn't such a thing as a ninja-to, simply because a Ninja is trained to use whatever the hell they have on hand, much like a Pirate.  If you look at it closely, Ninja and Pirates really aren't all that different.

BTW: Samurai and Ninja are both singular and plural, so "Samurais" is not a word, nor is "Ninjas."

I'd like to make it known that two of my uncles are dentists, and I go for a check-up nearly every month.

Ipso facto: Ninjas.

Pirates need to learn how to brush they damn teeth.
