What most people don't know is that the pirate saying "shiver me timbers" actually means to "brake the boat". You see timber is obviously wood. The word shiver is to break or split, also referring to a fragment or splinter. In other words "split my wood". This term would most likely be used in an attack from another pirate ship. It does not mean the following: getting laid, an exclamation of surprise, or that you are cold. However most people do use it as an exclamation of surprise.

Get the Shiver my liver mug.A full body shiver that occurs immediately after doing something really stupid that should result in serious injury or death, but without any negative consequences. Often occurs while driving.
After running the red light and nearly getting t-boned by a semi, I immediately started having idiot shivers.
