Since today is officially known by internet users as ‘International talk like a pirate day’ (ITLAPD), it all started back in 1995 as an inside joke between friends, John Baur & Mark Summers but it wasn’t until they submitted the idea about their invented holiday to humour columnist Dave Barry in 2002. that it spiralled out of control and became the global phenomenon it is today.
