jackwabbitThe rum's gone, you say? Well, can't have the crew not sharin...
Gotta keep up morale...
Keelhaul the drunkards!
I don't have a keel to haul you on, so...I'm just gonna steal from myself.

2-I do believe you were far more susceptible to the voodoo curse than I when last we encountered it.
3-For the last time, there is no rum in that drink!

It's just when I last had a little too much Cap'n in meh

Date: Oct. 5th, 2008 11:16 pm (UTC)Yeah, like RUM! And um...beer...and um...more RUM.
As for the remembering, that might depend on which captain, eh?
One word, my friend, one word: sancrosanct.

Date: Oct. 5th, 2008 03:11 am (UTC)Aye, but here's the real rub:
Can you name all the quotes in this here message?
There are four direct quotes, and three references.
I'll give you the references, as some of them are a bit of a stretch. Pirates of the Caribbean (Why is the rum gone?); cult classic saying (The beatings will continue until morale improves.); old sailing tune (What do you do with a drunken sailor? Put him in a longboat 'til he's sober!)
But the quotes, nope...you're on your own, and they're direct but range from blazingly easy to pretty damn hard.
(Hint: movie, tv show, Jimmy Buffett, and jackwabbit fic.)
A pirate's life for me!
Date: Oct. 5th, 2008 11:58 am (UTC)But with the direct quotes, I got:
“I don't have a keel to haul you on, so...”
-episode “Safe” from “Firefly”
“I'm just gonna steal from myself.”
-“Party at the End of the World” by Jimmy Buffett
“I could shoot the lot of ya for insubordination, or I could join ya in a drink...and forget all about this little incident. Now, shootin’s fun, but it means cleanin’ up after, and I ain’t never much liked cleanin’, so I propose a whole lotta drinkin’ before I change my mind.”
-One of your fics... I think. This is really a wild guess. :p
I'm not sure which movie you were referencing besides POTC, but you do have a very funny Captain Morgan/LOLcat pic there! XD

Date: Oct. 5th, 2008 03:03 pm (UTC)Right on the Mal quote, of couse, though your fingers betrayed you and typed 'Safe' instead of 'Ariel'.
Right on the JB line...did you actually know that or did you Google it? Cuz that's cheating, you know...and that song isn't the most common of knowledge.
And yep, the last one is from one of my fics...I won't tell you which one yet, in case someone else wants to stab at it.
And lastly, the other movie is the most obvious of all, but I'll leave that open, too. When LPFF comes back to this thread (and she will), it's like as not she'll get it. It's not sci-fi at all,though.
Re: A pirate's life for me!
Date: Oct. 5th, 2008 10:46 pm (UTC)I can't believe that I typed "Safe"! I meant to say "Ariel". Y'know, the scene where Mal locks Jayne in the airlock and cracks open the hatch while they're exiting atmo because Jayne had sold out River and Simon to the feds. (MAL: You turn on any of my crew, you turn on me!!) That scene. Oh, well. I blame it on the allergy medicine that I'm taking right now. It's making me kinda drowsy.
I cheated on the JB line and Googled it. :p I'm not a Buffett-head, but then again I haven't had the chance to really be exposed to a lot of his work. I'm heard "Margaritaville" a lot though. That's a great song!
And, I'm guessing the movie quote is, "Keelhaul the drunkards!" I think I'll take a stab at this too and guess that it comes from Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World.
Re: A pirate's life for me!
Date: Oct. 5th, 2008 11:12 pm (UTC)As for Safe vs Ariel, please note that I said your fingers betrayed you...I so know you knew that. We ALL know that. But we also ALL misspeak occasinally. *G*
As for JB-cheater! But a fesser-upper, too, so I'll take it! And I understand that not everyone is a Parrothead-we can't all be perfect. (Insert sarcasm alert here, please.)
As for the movie quote, great guess and GREAT MOVIE. I'm not a Crowe fan, but I loved that movie for the sake of the young officer and the doctor...long, but loved it.
Wrong, though...but I see ye olde LPFF did not disappoint.
