    If an actual pirate were ever to encounter an actual ninja, the resulting explosion would probably wipe out most of our solar system. We would never actually know who won.

    How do we know pirates are cooler? Because without them, we get global warming:

    Cool mobile, but its not for babies or it would have colors or at least be black and white. My opinion in the Pirate vs Ninja: Ninjas would win. Ninjas are sworn to die for their cause and pirates just want money (booty, if you prefer). Motivationally, a pirate is smart enough to run away and live to fight aother day, while the Ninja is it in to the death.

    Am I the only one who thinks the whole Ninjas v. Pirates things is totally played out, stale, and boring? I remember finding realultimatepower.net 6, count 'em, 6 years ago. Sure it was funny; but it's getting a little old now.


    Maybe I'm too old for the internet...which is pretty sad since I'm only halfway through my 20's.

    If a ninja lost his leg and an eye during a stabbing between a pirate vs. ninja battle, then does the ninja get disowned by his ninja possee and become a part of the Pirate Crew and therefor becomes a "Sell Out"?


    Is that what "Sold Out" Mean?

    @Jeff_Vader: Reason #35 Why Pirates Are WAAAAAAAAY Cooler Than Ninjas:


    A ninja with a stump for a leg is useless; a pirate with a stump for a leg is captain


    Reason #42 Why Pirates Are WAAAAAAAAY Cooler Than Ninjas:


    Pirates actually become scarier as they lose body parts

    True story: Last week I asked my daughter's five-year-old friend "Danny" who would win in a fight: a pirate or a ninja. He thought about it for a second and then answered matter-of-factly that the Ninja would win. I asked him why and he explained: a pirate has one sword, but a Ninja has two swords. (I didn't want to complicate matters by pointing out that Pirates often complement their sword with a cutlass. I leave that for when he's a little older).

    Yarrrgh!


    I not be trustin' enny o' my wee ones wi' th' scurvy likes of a ninja, even if that ninja be a piece o' fancied parchment.


    If ye be askin' me - an' ye be wantin' t' be heedin' me advice - a paper-like ninja be about a dangerous as the real thing. P'raps moreso because a paper ninja be capable o' deliv'rin a nasty paper cut. A real ninja on t'other hand would be settin' addle-brain'd, befuddl'd by th' Diaper Genie.


    Given the choice twixt trustin' yer kin wi' a drunken whorin' loutish brute that be yer average sea-farin' bosun an' th' lily-livered shriekin' violet tha' be a ninja, ye be wantin' t' be goin' wi' the buccaneer. At least when the Crown be sendin' a press-gang o' Lobsters fer yer tyke to put into service o' HMS, a pirate kin fend 'em off.


    Pirates - ironically, we be the best caretaker proxies. Ye wouldn't be thinkin' that, what with the gamblin' an' whorin' an' rapin'. But it be true.
