Versus @ MindSay

Since I'm currently indulging in internet memes, I think I'll state my take on the great Pirates vs. Ninja battle!

First, I'll tell you that I am on the side of the Pirates! Not because I don't think ninjas are cool or anything, I just think pirates are so much cooler! This whole thing started out simply as a question of  "who would win in a fight?" but now it's become something like "who has a cooler life style?". And I have to say, I think the pirates have got that wrapped up pretty nicely. When I think about it, I would much rather have a pirate's life style then a ninjas. I think the pirates live a more romantic life. Not romantic like flowers on the bed or poetry, I mean exciting, passionate, full of parties and fun and with a little sexin' on the side...

Ninjas, however, don't live that kind of life. They  life a life of celibacy, discipline, secrecy, and servitude. Not my style. A ninja is never allowed to have fun. From dawn to dusk a ninja is training or studying or assassinating someone. They aren't allowed to party or even take off their masks out of fear of being identified. Granted, it would be pretty sweet to hang from ceilings and kill people from the shadows, but to be honest, I like sex too much to be a celibate, and when was the last time you saw a ninja with wenches?

On to the question of who would win in a fight. I actually think a pirate would. Ninjas aren't trained in hand-to-hand combat, per ce. They are trained to strike from the shadows or from afar. I know that the glorified ninja can seemingly teleport behind you and stab you, but in real life, a ninja couldn't do that. And in a neutral location, they wouldn't have any shadows to hide in!

Pirates are seen as drunken and undisciplined, but truly, pirates never fought drunk, they always kept their weapons primed and ready for action, and all the fighting they did counts as training in my book. A pirate would probably just shoot the ninja with his musket as he charged forward. The ninja wouldn't stand a chance. In a battle of range, the musket has the advantage over kunai  and shuriken. A bullet is harder to see and travels much faster then anything that's thrown by hand. The ninja could be shot between the eyes before he can even send his weapons flying. And as to a battle of swords? The pirate would still shoot the ninja as he runs forward. After all, he is a pirate.

So there you have it. My take on the Pirate versus Ninja debate.
