Through a wooden nose?  Or would that be pegnose?

Pegnose? Pignose... even pirates have standarts! ;)

I do that every day.

Its more easy that it looks

With something like this?

Sadly, in my office, everyday is smell like a pirate day.

They put Guybrush on the top 5 video game pirates of all time!

Can someone explain to me how this made the list:


It was probably a stretch to come up with 5.  I guess padding is inevitable.

Or you could sing like a Pirate, maybe...

Everyday is smell like a pirate day for Fajerkaos! =)

Clearly discriminatory against pirates.

Let's smell like ron (Gilbert)!

Let's make it: Smell like a Pirate Year

Lets get out the good ol' pirate Sinex and have a whiff of the Scumm bar...

Just a heads-up: your "MONA LISA in 80 milliseconds" YouTube link is missing a "g" off the end.

In facebook, you can now change to English (Pirate) in language settings.

A must.

How is this different from any other day?  Ba-dump-ching!

in one of the missions of star wars the force unleashed it´s one bar called scum XD

sorry if my english is bad

I don't think Ron likes the kind of pirates who steal software, like games.

Well now, this blogpost rather looks like our grumpy gamedesigner had a very grumpy day so that he doesn't even approve a day devoted to a theme most of his game are based of.

Among the "What I'm Surfing" Links there was the BigDog robot. What they didn't show you there now leaked to youtube. The early beta tests: http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=VXJZVZFRFJc

This blog is as interesting as the 3rd wrinkle from the top on McCains left nut.

What is the Secret of Monkey Island?

On a sony's marketing campaing for their memory stick technology, they've developed an on-line flash game about a guy in a space ship.... It is a point and click adventure game, and in a certain room of the game, there is a portraite that when examined the character reads " 'Ron Gilbert, thanks for all' who is this gu? "

The game is designed by a group of brazilian dudes, so it has a version in portuguese too as whell of a hell of a lot of diferent languages..

it's a gfx-boot with the theme of Monkey Island for Ubuntu.

I celebrated Talk Like a Pirate Day late by talking like a Monkey Island Character! Yes it's the MI2 Speech Project. It's so big, Mix 'n' Mojo hosted it for me.

hey ron are you a fan of the venture brothers?

Hell yes!

So tell me, grumpygamer... why so grumpy?

I was reading the Georgia Straight today and noticed that Hothead Games is hiring.  That gave me a little chuckle.  How qualified do game testers have to be? :)

I can't wait until McCain sends this punk (Obama) crawling back to his hole.

Just came across this blog, Im glad I found it.

I gotta tell you... If there was any doubt before, I can say for sure now that Ron Gilbert definatly has his own style... much like you can recognize a new AC/DC song before the singing even starts, I would have been able to tell that at least one of the guys behind Monkey Island had a hand in Death Spank right off the bat. Looks absolutely fantastic. I can count on one hand the adventure titles Ive enjoyed in the past decade, so thanks for putting the time into a game that might actually be worth playing these days...

what happened to the obama support post?

Ron changed his mind and supports McCain now.

that (the McCain support), I doubt.
My guess is, he didn't want to start a political controversy on his webpage. That probably also was the reason, why comments were disabled at the original post to begin with.

I dont know what happened to the "Obama post", and I cant care less.

We should be asking about what the hell happened to Mr. GRUMPY, who left us like we were some old and non-compatible-windowsXP abbandon games :(

His only excuses are DeathSpank and perhaps chocolate, a lot of chocolate.

Ron?

What?

Ron!

Leave him alone, he is eating his chocolate

Elaine!
