An Impractical Joke
As you walk across the F'c'le, you're accosted by a pirate (there seem to be a lot of them on this pirate ship, oddly enough). "Hey there, swabbie," he says, "I wonder if ye could run an errand for me, what with ye being the new guy and all."
"Sure," you say. You figure he's going to send you off to hunt snipes or something, but figure you might as well get the hazing over with quickly. At least there don't seem to be any paddles in sight.
"I left me spare hook in that supply closet over there - would ye mind fetchin' it for me?"
You open the door to the supply closet, expecting someone to jump out and shout "Supplies!". Instead, you're dowsed with freezing cold water from the bucket that was resting on top of the door.
"Harrr harrr harrr, that was hilarious!" you say. "What a great and not at all annoying practical joke. Let's celebrate with some grog."
You let the practical joker drink himself under the table, then you carefully saw most of the way through his pegleg, cut the belt to his trousarrrs, and shout "FIRE! THE SHIP BE ON FIRE!" right in his ear.
The ensuing ruckus is very, very moxious.
