An Accessibility & Technical Communication Blog
Talk Like a Pirate Day! Avast, me hearties! Once again, we’ve arrived at 19 September, Talk Like a Pirate Day! On this day, all posts will be automatically converted to pirate talk. They will revert to normal after today (or after a few days as this is the weekend). Because this is automated, the wording will be a little different each time you refresh the page.
Enjoy all the piratey goodness today!
