A couple of days ago Andy and I were watching TV and there was a commercial for the season opener of Wife Swap, some dumb reality show where a couple exchanges wives and see how the new family functions. Supposedly the season opener was really dramatic, as it involved a freaky, nerdy family of pirates (who liked to dress as pirates and wear pirate hats) exchanging with a normal California valley-family stereotype. And of course, laughs and freakiness is supposed to ensue.
I told Andy, ":( I'm a pirate inside, but at least I don't do freaky shit like that." And Andy looked at me and said, "I don't even know what that's supposed to mean."
I sort of looked at him oddly and realized that he doesn't really get what being a pirate means.
So I told Andy to watch the first two One Piece openings, listen to the lyrics and the Gold Roger narration. I think I forgot to show him, and he's not gonna look it up on his own.
Therefore, THE MEANING OF PIRATE, as presented by One Piece. :3
One Piece Opening #2 - Believe as subbed by Kaizoku-Fansubs
One Piece Opening #3 - Hikari e as subbed by Kaizoku-Fansubs. This one's actually a whole subbed episode, since I couldn't find a subbed rip of just the opening.
One Piece Opening #6 - Brand New World as subbed by ADC-Elites. (I'm sad they got rid of the Gold Roger narration after the 3rd opening. The Gold Roger narrations WERE THE BEST!)
Man, I wish I was subbing OP with K-F again.
In all honesty, I don't think one can really understand the spirit of being a pirate until you watch/read ALL of One Piece. :3
