    So you know how like men go to the bathroom alone, but women don't, what is up with that?

      Every woman knows the Ladies Room Wolves will not attack humans in groups.

      Ever notice how men go to the restroom alone, while women go in hoards ten thousand strong, clad in sable armor and bristling with swords and spears?

    <–me not fretting

    I love that. Also, the glasses and buccaneer/bowler hat combo will be starting a new and daringly wild fashion trend.

    I wouldn't mind getting shanghai'd. I've always felt drawn towards sea piracy.

    Excellent comic. Love your work. Practically the only webcomic my wife finds funny. Keep it up!

    Women like money, money is the root of evil, women are evil.

    Men like women, men are Thralls

    Hilarious as always.

    Panel 3: doesn't 'aye' mean 'yes'? Maybe bug pirate means 'oi'…

      Rafaela, 'aye' is appropriate for the panel. He's agreeing with Bug about being less than desirable for a shanghai.

      I think it makes sense: Yes, you'd be a most unpleasant addition to me crew.

    I think your comic can top any Carrot Top act on any cruise ship. Great stuff as always!

      wow. that there is what's known as a "left handed compliment". Or possibly as "damning with faint praise".

    Ever notice how there's no female pirates? What's up with that?

      Lack of imagination? There have been plenty of historical female pirates. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_piracy lists a bunch, and doesn't even include Graunia O'Malley, who operated out of Galway Bay in Ireland during the reign of Elizabeth I in England.

      And by the way, women go to the loo in pairs or groups so they have someone to talk with while they're standing in the flaming line.

    Ah yes, the shoe-shopping, am-i-fat, men-got-no-romance comedy routine. A recent study of the University of Vienna concluded that 47% of the worlds GDP is being spend on tickets for comedy shows with men-women jokes. The comedians uttering them cause 17% of the global CO2 emissions.
