<p>Look out Duke! You’ve got competition and it’s not in lacrosse. </p>

<p>Yep, some students are seriously ignorant of history if they think that was supposed to be funny.</p>

Mr. Mumby is correct; if a junior at a fine institution such as JHU has no idea that pirates are popular Halloween costumes, and that their usual fate throughout the British Empire was death by hanging, “apparently some people weren’t given much of a proper lesson in the history of our country.”</p>

<p>I can guarantee you that this “fate” that pirates dealt with in the British Empire IS NOT common knowledge. You’re just trying to cover for them. Besides, the pirate doesn’t fit into the “hood” theme so the pirate has a different meaning than the one you suggested.</p>
