So every year (or however often it actually happens), I see people posting like crazy about "Talk Like a Pirate Day" and that we should all change our Facebook language to Pirate. I've played with the languages many times, and will occasionally go to pirate or upside-down for a bit for fun. I try to switch to pirate for the holiday, it's just funny to see how things change.
