        There was that hot Somali who was Tik Tokking himself while boarding a cargo ship.

        But he was enforcing a blockade enacted by his government within Yemeni territorial waters so unfortunately it wasn’t piracy.

      I don’t think the worlds remaining sea pirates are very technical, or smart at all for that matter.

            I mean, it’s just a piece of paper for competing an otherwise random set of extracurricular activities. MIT students do memes all the time. Well, they use to. I think the administration is trying to crack down on fun stuff.

          The MIT Pirate Certificate is for entertainment purposes only and does not give the recipient license to engage in piracy or any pirate activities.
