The offended captain saying “yar, it need only look good from afar” is probably one of my favourite CGPgrey lines

2020-06-03 07:49:11 +0000 UTCThe BOOP and “fake guns don’t shoot, do they? *slaps hard on back*” “😠” made me die. With laughter.

2020-06-01 11:42:20 +0000 UTCMy theory is Grey just binged Black Sails (amazing show), and dude in glasses with beanie is the Walrus' accountant, then quartermaster Mr. Dufresne. Easily the character Grey would latch onto.

2020-05-31 22:13:41 +0000 UTCI love the lyrical lines, lovingly laced with little tidbits of tidy rhymes; abounding with alliteration and assonance.

2020-05-31 08:12:03 +0000 UTCYet again, a video whose topic I never would have predicted yet somehow falls perfectly into the nebulous, undefined category of "definitely a Grey topic."

2020-05-30 20:57:48 +0000 UTCFavorite line in the whole video: "bootie be 'licious" :-D
2020-05-30 19:57:52 +0000 UTCThe sudden change from pirate talk to normal talk hurt me

2020-05-30 18:43:21 +0000 UTCI also recommend the chapter on pirate law in David Friedman's book "Legal Systems very Different From Ours" (quick look at the drafts here: http://www.daviddfriedman.com/Legal%20Systems/LegalSystemsContents.htm ) It describes how loot is shared and when and when not pirate captains can make decisions.

Mr.Tarzan
2020-05-30 17:03:19 +0000 UTCShould we be expecting a pirate-themed collection of wallpapers?
I think it's time we blow this scene, get everybody and their stuff together. Okay, 3, 2, 1, let's jam!
