A ninja could easily dispatch a pirate. Pirates have scurvy. ALL of them.

Have you ever watched the movie "Ninjas of the Caribbean?" There's a reason for that.

(What's that, Jason?)



I agree that a ninja could beat a pirate in a fight. But how would the ninjas get to the pirates in the first place? The pirates are sailing the high seas, and I don't think ninjas are very good sailors.



Not to mention that pirates are far better singers than ninjas. I *dare* you to think of even one commonly-known ninja song. No? That's what I thought.

Everybody was kung-fu fighting

Those cats were fast as lightning

In fact it was a little bit frightning

But they fought with expert timing

--from the new hit musical -- Ninjas on Broadway!!

I say Ninja. A Ninja is a pretty sweet motorcycle. You ever hear of a motorcycle called a pirate? That would be stupid. "Hey.....I ride a pirate!" Sounds gay if you ask me.



Also, there are a lot more good video games that revolve around ninjas (there are a very few about pirates).

Ninjas don't talk. They just kung fu everyone.

Ninjas are Japanese. Kung Fu is Chinese. I don't think the ninjas ever "kung fued" anyone; they ninjitsued them.

Ok, so ninjas just sit around doing ninja things. Pirates have personality!

But Randy, just because the Ninjas aren't good sailors (which is debatable anyway) doesn't mean anything. The pirates have to come back to land at some point. So while the pirates are out slaving away on the ship getting sick because they are they've been living on rum for two months the ninjas are just chillin' at the port waiting for the pirates to come back. And no, the ninjas don't attack the malnurished pirates when they step off of the boat, they are far too honorable for that. They give them a couple months to get plump again and then do away with them.

Pirates drink rum until they are fat. Ninjas drink Sake until they until they can't feel anything when they smash wood or concrete blocks.

I've seen both Pirates of the Carribeans, and I like the song Pirates Who Don't Do Anything.
