Free Krispy Kreme Donuts on Talk Like A Pirate Day

Come in, armed with a blunderbuss, and take as many as you want. :up:
 
Yeah, not driving an hour or paying $50 to go into the City to buy a donut.
 
Meh. Krispy Kreme sucks, (overly sweet), Dunkin Donuts are better. :BA
 
They can't do this at Krispy Kreme stores in the UK because they would have to give the entire south west of England free doughnuts seeing as the pirate accent is based off of the accents from that region.

Stereotypical pirate accents tend to resemble accents either from Cornwall, South Devon or Bristol in South West England Pirates in film, television and theatre are generally depicted as speaking English in a particular accent and speech pattern that sounds like a stylized West Country accent, patterned on that of Robert Newton's performance as Long John Silver in the 1950 film Treasure Island. A West Country native where many famous English pirates hailed from, Newton's strong West Country accent also featured in Blackbeard the Pirate (1952).
