Pirate or Ninja? What one is better?
 
No, this does not include Naruto ninjas or Cursed pirates from the pirates of the caribbean: Curse of the black pearl, and dead man's chest.

Just actual, real, ninjas and pirates.

which one is better? and why?

Havoc 10-30-2006 12:56 PM

Pirates FTW

ANN NEELY 10-30-2006 01:05 PM

I've yet to see a pirate with shuriken (ninja stars) or a katana, so ninja it is!
(Who doesn't like wearing a kimono? Those things are damn comfy!)



EDIT: I'm such an idiot! A shakujo is a staff used by Japanese priests, not a ninja star!*Changes*

Bullet Magnet 10-30-2006 01:29 PM

Do the pirates have laser beams attached to their heads?

Arxryl 10-30-2006 01:32 PM

No they don't, but they have pistols, and sabers... and canons... and ships...
and rum.

Rich 10-30-2006 02:13 PM

Gotta be Pirates.

Arxryl 10-30-2006 03:37 PM

I'm not sure ninja's have lazers on their heads either.

Real pirates? Not the stupid stereotype ones that go around hollaring “Arrrrr!”, but the sophisticated, gentlemanly ones? Yeah. Those ones. Without a doubt. :D

Arxryl 10-30-2006 04:25 PM

yes. you have the right idea. the ones we DON'T see on children's television.

OANST 10-30-2006 06:04 PM

Ninjas. Scurvy can really slow you down.

ziggy 10-30-2006 06:27 PM

i would definately go with ninjas, way cooler than a buncha drunk pirates.

One ninja could take out a whole pirate ship.

rick the mudarcher 10-30-2006 10:08 PM

Pirates for the win!! *Try's not to make a idiot of himself by saying "Yarr!".*

<.<

YARR!!! X3

Nate 10-30-2006 11:00 PM

Ninjas.

But only medically trained ninjas.

Ninja-pirate-mushroom.

Statikk HDM 10-31-2006 06:20 AM

1 ninja could take down a pirate ship? My ass. Its called a gun, look it up. A ninja enters melee with pirates they're ****ed, too. Strength in numbers.

Mojo 10-31-2006 07:35 AM

Ghost, you beat me to the punch. Weebl & Bob FTW!

ya, but the ninja would enter the ship by using stealth and kill
everyone in it.

ninjas are expertly trained, pirates aint

Nemo 10-31-2006 04:15 PM

It's basically a primate whose has lived in an area all his life vs. a scientist with a big o' gun and he doesn't know how to use it.
Both of them are the same, basically.

Bullet Magnet 10-31-2006 05:50 PM

I think it all comes down to the location, circumstance, and the foresight to attach lasers to their heads.

Patrick Vykkers 10-31-2006 08:08 PM

Personally, I think Chuck Norris owns both. But in a one on one fight, probably ninjas.

oddveteran93 10-31-2006 10:26 PM

I don't really care. Mr Freeman owns'em all with a crowbar. Also I would like to add this comment:
Pirates may have the rum, but ninjas have the skills.

Statikk HDM 11-01-2006 04:20 AM

Its pirates. Its so obvious I don't even know how this could be a debate.

Munch's Master 11-01-2006 04:26 AM

Ninjas. They're far more stealthy and could assasinate a bunch of pirates before even being een. Then they'd do their flippy, twisty dodge-bullets-and-throw-shurikens deal.

As seen in this topic... I guess there is some type of debate.
I go with Pirates due to their use of guns, cannons, beer bottles, and cutlasses..
and if a Ninja somehow made onto a boat filled with Pirates, and after he somehow killed them... how would he get back to land?

Statikk HDM 11-01-2006 09:15 AM

Its a debate in the same sense that people "debate" global warming. Pirates are superior, end of story.

ODD-BOD 11-01-2006 11:21 AM

no way, ninjas all the way, what use is a gun if a ninja chopped ya hands off with a nasty old sword. then ya screwed.

(p.s. pirates are lame. ninjas rule. deal with it.)

Hobo 11-01-2006 11:57 AM

That is if the ninja could get to the pirate before he got shot.
and you may be thinking that pirates only have one shot pistols, but captains usually had seven or eight one shot pistols, and when he shot one, the first mate would re-load it.

(p.s. everyone has their own opinion.)

Bullet Magnet 11-01-2006 12:25 PM

DeviantART, Hobo?

Fez 11-01-2006 02:05 PM

Daleks!!!!!!!

Facsimile 11-01-2006 06:37 PM

Robots are actually the true winners here.

But in this case, Ninjas. Haven't you ever watched like any ninja action movie? They can deflect the pirates bullets with their katanas.

With their ****ing katanas!

Bullet Magnet 11-02-2006 01:24 AM

So? Pirates can deflect katanas with severed body parts.

Braiiiins, Bullet?

Statikk HDM 11-02-2006 10:54 AM

Not that katana baloney again. And why would a ninja have one of those anyhow?

Arxryl 11-02-2006 01:35 PM

I always thought that Samurai used Katana's and Ninja's used a shorter and straighter blade.

ziggy 11-02-2006 02:07 PM

ya thats right

Majic 11-02-2006 07:07 PM

I've always favored lumberjacks and their burly plaided beardedness. But that's just me. Hell, I used the story of a lumberjack as the plot element for an allegory I wrote in English. But that's beside the point. We're talking about ninjas and pirates. And I say...

Pirates.
