ends? no way. this is the neverending question that is even older than the internet itself.

but yeah i clicked on yes... after i posted that... just in case it was convincing .. which it wasn't. it was hilarious though. but no grounds for your case. not that the whole thing isn't just personal opinion anyway.

but i'm a pirate. a street pirate for life. and though ninjas could probably kick pirates asses, I love the pirates so much more.

'Street Pirate', now whos making things up :P. But yes most people on the net today do fashion themselves as nouveau pirates. Though they don't do any sword play, there definitly is a lot of stealing going on.

Of course I would never present that site as evidence to anything factual about ninjas, but since this really isn't a factual debate, since I'm not sure there ever were encounters between pirates and ninjas (with them being on opposite sides of the globe for the most part). But the site is funny, though definitely of low humor. Of course I found out about it like 4 years ago or so. Not sure the part about kittens is on there, and I can't really post the picture of it I found a while back as it contains a questionable word.

Of course my ultimate choice of warrior would be knight, but between ninjas and pirates it's ninjas.

Street Pirate FTW!

We sail our boots down the middle of the road at 3am and pillage and plunder for booty asunder.

=P

And pirates could possibly have run ins with ninjas because pirates sail all over the world.

Also there is the whole thing of a ninja sneaking around cus he or she is crazy and a pirate after the ninja to loot his or her ninja stars and a secret agent following the both of them. ^______^ ecks dee.

The best thing ninjas can get... is into trouble.

>_____> thats a rofl and a half PIMPS = pirates.. totally. that makes less sense than guitar playing ninjas!

the second POTC was just amazing though, SO funny. and you gotta the slapstick cartoon totally unrealistic humour. so many movies now adays try to make their humour realistic or something and it's just cheesy, the whole POTC thing is like old cartoons - merely there for entertainment. just like they are supposed to be.

Another reason why pirates are awsome... TENTACLES!!!

The only time ninjas and tentacles are in the same place is usually in anime... and I'd rather not go into what exactly the tentacles do. *cough hentai cough*

So... what do you think happend to Jack? Did Kraken eat him? Or did the captain give him what for.

Yeah when I heard there was going to be a sequel, with him in it, after seeing the ending. Man I smell a plot hole coming. :P

Oh and if Pirates are so great then how come they weren't a job class in Final Fantasy Tactics (quite possibly the best tactics game), hmm. I never saw a pirate's picture on a bubblegum card.

*waits for someone to get the very vauge reference in the last line*

Though I guess there is more bounty in a pirates lifestyle, his life is also shorter because of it. And you have to be on a boat for months at a time with nothing but grog. Though then again I'm not really sure what Ninjas eat, maybe they just don't, or maybe they eat what they kill.

shorter??? SHORTER? how about all those people on Davey Jones's boat that were living for HUNDREDS of years. huh? thats not too short is it? besides ninja's lives are much more deadly since they are always battling with people and other ninjas and stuff...

also, some pirates live forever in history and tales... how many ledgendary ninjas can you come up with?

Yay, Sumisem.

I would like to add the fact that pirates seem to live the happier life as well. I mean, they get drunks and sing songs amist comrads of the sea. The get to actually enjoy the works of their plundering. Lot's of R&R when not on a boat...

Ninjas...uh, meditate.

What fun.

Pirates find a cutlass or whatever and cut other pirate's heads off.

Ninjas can do the same with katanas, but they also have shurikens, so if they aim good, they can cut people's heads off FROM A DISTANCE.

True... but pirates also can throw daggers. Though is though of as more of a theif's trait, pirates still do it. Just watch the Count of Monte Cristo.

And though you are very dead without a head... I'm pretty sure it's hard to live without a beating heart as well.

and pirates have guns.

pirates get booty as in loot but when they hit the pirate ports there is other kinds of booty for them. ninjas are more like jedi's in that way. married to their ninjaness.
