If'n ye be on Facebook, hie ye down to the language-choice link down in the bilges at the bottom of the page, and turn yer tongue to "English (Pirate)"!

No, really. Points to the Facebook user community, who demonstrated that there are over-the-top geeks there as well. They've used the Community Translation app to translate the entire intricate UI into Pirate. The Inbox becomes "Bottle o' Messages". The logout button is "Abandon Ship". The Search field now has a little highlight that says "Scour" instead. Hell, the Developer application is now "Ship Builder".

I'm not hugely into Talk Like a Pirate Day, but I have to appreciate the sheer obsessiveness here...

My particular favourite is the "Arrrrrplications" link...
