Yes, I discuss 'the way we pirates have been slowly turning the social networks into our swag-fountains' in a forum you can get to through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first–after a mention of the free mining-software (giving us free Bitcoin in exchange for energy we're wasting anyway)–I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Pillage” is built on ancient words that mean "Hair (see Pile)" (because it's an Act of |Plunder so harsh as to pattern after Indians' '|Scalping' (Skinning Enemies' Heads, |Ripping the Hair out ... particularly during War)).
#Pillaged #Pillaging #Pillager
The exclamation “Yarr!” is basically Imitative of a Carnivorous |Growl.
#Arr #Yar
The nautical interjection “Avast” is built on words that mean "Hold Fast!" (or |Stop!)
