The last CC covered one of the cornerstones of great comedy: robots. Robots are inherently funny.

Another such cornerstone is pirates. Pirates are comedy gold. A dull strip about a job interview or accounting audit becomes a laugh-your-guts-out riot with the addition of an eye patch and a peg leg. So this CC's theme is pirates. They can be in traditional pirate settings such as frigates and gay discos, or less traditional settings such as The Mormon Tabernacle.

The first 50 customers to make an ass-pirate joke will get a free coffee mug filled with Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum.*

Judging takes place Monday noonish EDT.

My entry is an attempt to test this theory. I have taken one of my own unfunny office humor comics and rewritten it as a pirate comic. My entry is the result.

And, if you give a damn here is the original.

Have I actually created a funny comic cup entry? I'm not sure. I know I never have before.

This is not an original joke. But if plagiarism helps me win the contest, I'm okay with that.

Little known fact: all pirates are from the West Country. Hence that accent.
