Who would win in a confrontation?

Personally, I'd say pirates. Pirates are too badass to be defeated by ninjas, or anyone for that matter. As Bender pointed out to me. Pirates can ride on sharks. A shark riding pirate could whoop a ninja any day. Arrrrr!

PLUS pirates can shoot lasers out of their eye. You think they have that badass looking eye patch just to look badass? HELL NO! That hides their super cool LASER EYE.

Pirates. And Lumberjacks. From Maddox's site:

Lumberjacks chop down trees, eat beef jerky, and kick ass.

Pirates are all "Argh! Go **** yourself!"

Pirates are better.

I wonder what would happen in a pirate/ninja/lumberjack brawl.

Well, pirates would win. But, it would be interesting to watch.

You get a ninja onto a pirate ship, and his legs will be wobbly and crap! No amount of flipping out or guitar wailing will help some stupid ninja landlubber.

Bender1616: I still like Pirates more than Ninjas though
I Am Polas: That's a tough one
I Am Polas: Unfortunately, whenever I'm faced with a decision such as this one, I of course turn to Megaman. And in the Megaman series, Pirate Man just sucks. I'm truly sorry
Bender1616: Polas. I...please just...leave. I'm sorry, man. But I can't talk to a ninja lover
I Am Polas: Dude, look at Shadowman, then Pirateman. It's not pretty
Bender1616: Dr. Wily just liked Ninjas more, dude. That's why he made Shadowman better
I Am Polas: I don't think Dr. Wily built either of them, to be honest. One just existed (Shadowman), and one was built by a clearly homosexual robot that liked chess (Pirateman) ... uhoh, Pirateman just can't catch a break
I Am Polas: Although, Dr. Wily did build the homo chess-loving robot
Bender1616: Exactly
Bender1616: He probably programmed him to build crappy pirate robots just to make pirates look bad. Dr. Wily is THAT evil
I Am Polas: Yeah, King's robots were all pretty fruity. Magicman? Wow. The world needed a top hat, bowtie-wearing robot
Bender1616: haha

Good luck being all stealthy and stuff on a pirate ship, ninja boy! The ninja would just like, trip and stuff and be all stupid. Then the pirates would be all like, "What a stupid landlubber, trying to be all stealthy but he's really just stupid. Haha, what a stupid moron." And then the ninja would start crying and run away, but he wouldn't make it because the pirates would shoot his head off with a cannon.

Ninjas can beat up pirates. Pirates know nothing about stealth. Haven't you people heard of a game called Tenchu? Name one pirate that could survive in there.
In the interest of total fairness, Lorelai Gilmore could beat up both pirates AND ninjas.

Now sharks are involved, so we must turn to the Megaman Battle Network series. Shadowman and Sharkman is a pretty even matchup, but Shadowman has more HP, and is tougher to find, plus isn't weakened by any element, so he wins. Pirateman is too sucky to be included in the Battle Network series. I'm trying to think of any game where pirates > ninjas, but I just can't.

Polas, I thought we already established that Pirateman doesn't count because he was built by that fruit who was programmed to build crappy pirate robots just because Dr. Wily was a stupid ninja lover who wanted to make pirates look bad?

Yes, but in the Battle Network series, there are no robots, only programs. And no one in the whole universe programmed a Pirateman. Even Woodman made the cut. Woodman.

That's only because Ninjas are overhyped in modern day society. Do ninjas have ships with statues of topless babes on the front of them? Do ninjas have scantily clad babes sailing the seas with them? Do ninjas battle HUGE sea monsters without breaking a sweat? Do ninjas make love to mermaids?

I could go on and never come upon a totally BADASS thing that pirates do that ninjas also do.

There's no honor in debauchery. Those chicks are only there due to pirate kidnappings. Ninjas go the honorable route by slaying some sort of ancient demon lord, then they get the hentai chicks at the end. And you know the things they do. I'd like to see a mermaid get it on with a tentacle.

You're thinking of Samuries, Polas. They're the ones who kill the demons. Ninja's are afraid of the women. That's the reason for all that sneaking around and hiding. Also, they're impotent. That's why they're afraid of the women,

Ryu clearly makes out with Irene after the Ninja Gaiden games. Also, what's the deal with those fruity Captain Hook hats with the giant feathers? And you'd think they'd stop getting arms and legs chopped off after awhile, but no, every 5th pirate is still a pegleg. Statistics don't lie.

Ryu wasn't a real ninja, he was masquerading as one because Ninjas had a good union at the time. The hats ...I don't know what the hell is going on with those hats, but the hooks and pegs are for style. Kind of like extreme body piercing or something. It's also part of a religion,

Pirates sailed ships, and lets face it, they sucked. Look at Titantic. They sink and everyone dies. Ship captains are probably responsible for the loss of more human life than we'll ever know.

Also we forget pirates are the enemy of Peter Pan. Those guys were obsessed with killing some flying little kid with a magical fairy and all his friends. How crude.

Pirates = mentally disturbed and evil

They were also drunks, what with their Yo ho ho shlock and all.

So by your logic, my Uncle Don could be the supreme leader of the pirates. All he does is sit in a lounge chair and drink Old Milwaukee's all day. He wouldn't last 5 minutes in ninja camp, they'd use his belly as a trampoline to perform their triple sasashi flips of coolness.

Pirates were defeated by Michael Jackson's idol Peter Pan, who defeated them with nothing but a British chick and a pair of green tights. I think that ranks a little lower than dogs on the "craptastic" scale.
