I got in an argument with a friend on my other friend's wall on Facebook. This is my argument.


1. Ninjas have ninja stars, pirates have swords, ninja stars rock, swords are so common. I mean, only a ninja has and canuse ninja stars, because if, say, a lawyer has a ninja star, then it is no longer a ninja star, it is a lawyer star. But, if a lawyer has a sword it is just a sword and being just a sword, it is not
specifically designed for a lawyer, like a ninja star in designed for a ninja.

2. In one of Ashley's previous posts she wrote

"Sarah is so right Pirates fricking rule.. Ninjas are ok but pirates can beat them any day..."

I am afraid to say that is not possible, you see, as I have explained before ninjas are stealthy, sober and smart, but pirates are loud, drunk and stupid. If a pirate and a ninja were in

a fistfight a ninja could easily win because:
a. The ninja would be able to predict what the pirate is
going to do next, therefore, could stop the blow, or dodge it.

b. The ninja would be able to stay upright because there
wouldn’t be any alcohol affecting the ninja's balance. Because
pirates are on the sea they have to live off of alcoholic drinks
because they can't drink the seawater. If a pirate were to strike
a blow at a ninja, or anything in particular the pirate would lose
balance and be in a vulnerable position.

c.If a pirate were chasing a ninja, the ninja would easily
get away, and could slip into the shadows and have the pirate run right past. A pirate would make noise
running, not be able to hide as good or fall over from being intoxicated. So if a ninja were chasing a pirate, the ninja would be able to tell how close the pirate is, and, let's face it, pirates live on a boat, not much space to run and be in shape or practice self discipline.

3. Ninjas are mysterious, I mean, seriously, have you ever seen a large form of of transportation, say, a bus, full of ninjas acting crazy and taking things from rich people? No. In fact, you don't see ninjas at all, they are there, but you don't know it. Which makes it even weirder and cooler. If you were to see a pirate, you would be expecting something along the lines of some buried treasure, a parrot and a face like Johnny Depp's
(Captain Jack Sparrow). But you would be disappointed because:
a. Pirates stink, literally, no place to bathe in a boat, and you can't go in the ocean cause you'd get eaten by a shark.


b. You would be expecting a gorgeous hollywood movie
star, but really you'd be getting something similar to a bum, just, an old fashioned one.


c. Pirates are disloyal, would you wanna walk the plank
and get eaten by a shark? I didn't think so.


d. If a pirate had a parrot, he'd eventually end up eating it out of hunger. Not my idea of a gourmet meal.


4. Pirates were hated in their time, they were hung and had other bad stuff done to them. I don't think ninja's were hated, they had to do something to you for you to hate them and if you wanted to hang a ninja, good luck catching him, and keeping him prisoner.
