20. The poster on the door, cut off as it is in the piccie, looks suspiciously like Wil his own self.
    Hmmmm. I have no pun I can think of here.

21. Silly question, Wil. You should plunder the Guinness supply!

22. So, is it ok to talk like a space pirate on talk like a pirate day? Oh, in that case:

26. Nothing to do with pirates, but to paraphrase Fight Club: I am Wil’s anatomically correct door.

27. Garr, ye be lookin’ most dapper, Dread Pirate Wheaton.

29. “Plunder me booty.

35. Totally off topic but the companion cube in the back reminded me of it.
    At PAX there was a guy carrying around a full size companion cube. As I passed him, I said in the most leering and creepy way I could, “You companion cube is *hot*”. He just smiled and said “Yeah, I know.”

36. Avast, methinks yer needin’ a bigger pirate hat! Ye look barely able to swab the deck in that silly thing.

41. Today when I came to my grade five classroom at the morning bell, I was greeted by an ethusiastic little blonde cutie, one of my students. She was sporting a bandana, a pirate’s hat, and a hook over one hand. She grinned and said, “ARRRRRR!”
    freaking awesome!!!

42. Yar, that don’t be a pirate hat, that be a pirate beret.

43. The pirate in me wants to quote bender on your shelf. “I like stealing, I like taking stuff”. I love the castle behind you, where did you get it? I have had my eye on the Knights’ Castle by Schleich you can buy at Toys R Us but your castle looks even cooler.

44. I couldn’t have asked for a better photo (and caption!) on my birthday. Thanks, Wil!
