Get the pOiRacy mug.Too much desire to get involved in lucrative piracy in Somali seas. A strong feeling of love and admiration for piracy on the high seas.
Some background information
Pirate attacks in the Gulf of Aden, the Red Sea, and the waters far off Somalia’s eastern coast continue to increase not only the geographic range of their attacks, but the way they attack vessels. Somali pirates have adopted tactics that now allow them to attack more than 1,000 nautical miles off the Somali coast, with hefty ransom payments over $5 million per ship. Many pirates were lured to start such that new business by tales of easy cash.

Get the Piracy-philia mug.Related Words
What a smart person would engage in to avoid paying exorbitant prices for 2-hour long heavily edited videos(movies) or the overpriced windows operating system. Pirates shouldn't feel bad, as their money would have gone to some megacorporation worth a few hundred billion dollars, or a millionaire living in Beverly Hills. Piracy ranges from using YouTube-to-mp3 to starting a torrenting site like the Pirate Bay. It also has a subreddit at r/piracy.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
We pillage plunder, we rifle and loot
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
Since I had to include the word: piracy

Get the piracy mug.The best thing ever to happen to the music/software industry. The customer's way of telling the corporate whore fatcats that they're charging us too much for low-quality shit.
RIAA should just ralize it's hopeless to stop piracy as long as it supports shitty, no-talent MTV karaoke lipsynchers like NSYNC.

Get the piracy mug.Something that enables millions of people to learn and use software you would *never* have bought for the retail price. Something people in the sw industry don't take into account...

Get the piracy mug.Old usage: the act of sailing around on a huge boat with a bunch of other guys (all of whom most likely are missing either one of their legs, hands, or eyes) and raiding spanish galleons up and down whatever coast you happen to be on. This action usually involves a lot of town pillaging, treasure looting, booty stealing, cutlass weilding, ARRR! yelling, parrot having, musket shooting, rum drinking, accordion playing, cannon cannoning, and buggery.
New usage: the act of stealing music, movies, unlicensed software, etc off of the internet. Usually done through a variety of p2p clients. This practice is of course denounced by the industry and they have launched a campaign of legal action and anti-piracy media featuring the likes of M E Hart aimed at destroying piracy, but all indications as of now are that it will survive.
In both cases, piracy is awesome.
