Pirates:

Pros:
-Pillage plunder, and poontang
-sexy stubble
-drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and FIGHT! (or is that the Irish? Meh. Whatev.)
-Cutlasses AND guns
-Boats/Cannons
-Large crews
-Parrots

Cons:
-Always drunk
-Poor motor skills
-A bit reckless and messy
-Hookhands make firing weapons hard
-Peglegs make running a bitch
-No depth perception (eyepatch)

Ninjas:

Pros:
-Stealthy
-Can climb walls
-Wicked cool swords
-Japanese
-Throwing stars
-Can move superfast
-Can rip out your spine then dissappear in a cloud of mystery
-smoke bombs
-Grappling Hooks
-Asskicking reflexes

Cons:
-Quite literally backstabbing
-No code of honor
-Very little, if any, armor
-not very strong or rugged
-Wouldn't do to well in a bar fight

I say ninjas because Drunkard vs. Silent Death equals dead pirate.

Pfft. Everybody knows that all Eastern fighting styles evolved from the pitiful leavings of the Shao-lin temples. Ninjas are pranksters.

But I think Ben has a good point. Nothing's ever stopped ninjas from pillaging from the high seas, except maybe better pillagers. :mrgreen:

Pirates, like most sailors, had deeply rooted superstitions about allowing women on board of a ship. There were a few notable female pirates, that were so simply because they were the exception to the rule, not due to any particular skill or fabulous deeds. In fact, there have been studies suggesting that homosexuality was indeed very prevalent among the Brotherhood, which would only reinforce the bias.

Ninja had kunoichi. Female ninja trained to infiltrate using their femininity as both a disguise, and a potential weapon.

Hot, flexible Japanese girls in all black who can kick my ass..

I'm sorry folks.. hands down.. Ninja win.

Did you know that Bodhidharma is the man that instructed them in physical exercises to condition their bodies as well as their minds. He is creited in teaching them the "Eighteen Hands of the Lo-Han" or shih pa lo han sho. But if you know, then never mind. Just throught I put that out for everyone.

I think I know a a little bit about Lo-Han.

The physical exercises you're talking about are commonly referred to as the I Chin Ching (I can't claim to be spelling it properly, as the only copy of it I have is in Chinese, which in turn is a copy of notes taken down directly from Grand Master Sin Kwang Thé by one of his better students - my original sifu.)

Speaking of Ninjas..has anyone ever heard that mix that had the old Ninja Gaiden [nintendo] music in it? I cant remember who did it now..but i liked it and want to find it again.

on topic.

I think pirates would be more fun to hang out with[you really cant go wrong with drunken limmericks]..ninjas might just sit there and meditate.

in retrospect, i will have to go with pirates. because pirates have more booty.
