The debate has always been there and shall always be...Ninjas or Pirates!
Convince us of your grandeur!

Well, I like the freedom of the Pirates, the ability to do whatever you want, the debauchery (I'm a huge fan of debauchery), and stuff like that. But, at the same time, I love the ninjas dedication, their ability, their training, their preciseness and deadliness.
I suppose if I had to chose I'd be a sex-ninja who lived freely through sheer force of will.
But, ninja.

Pirates succeed because ninja's are just sneaky Muslims. and Pirates have a tendency to be disgusting and sexy at the same time. Plus they have boats.

Floral Panties Pirates succeed because ninja's are just sneaky Muslims. and Pirates have a tendency to be disgusting and sexy at the same time. Plus they have boats. ...What? I can't tell if you're trying to be offensive or not... Muslims are about the farthest thing from ninja. Ninja are Japanese in origin (although they've been changed by time from the original). Japan's population is 98% (ish) their own native religion, Shinto, which is roughly a combination of Buddism and ancestor/spirit worship. Most of the remaining population is Christian. The number of Muslims in Japan is very close to zero. Incidentally, as someone with some very good friends who are Muslim, I'm rather offended myself.

I wasn't trying to offend muslims, I was stating the fact that Muslim women dress a lot like the common ninja. I suppose I should have worded my statement differently. I apologize for offending you. I swear it was unintentional.

I always found that the ninja versus pirate question is a choice between the ultimate form of descipline and the ultimate form of indescipline, respectively. And though they exist at two extremes, they both live to fulfill very subversive causes.
If there is one thing a ninja doesn't live for, it's Glory. They may earn personal Infamy, but that doesn't matter one way or another to an ideal ninja. A pirate lives off of Glory; as Glory can be interpreted as a form of wealth and sustinence that drives the pirate's motives in the first place. A ninja has (what could best be describe as) "the Ultimate Work Ethic", completing a task as thoroughly as they can in as little time possible before moving on to another. A pirate, however, would be perfectly content spending his entire life performing one task, so long as it is the task they've chosen.
I feel that if you combine these two architypes, the ultimate result will be something rather inept compared to a full ninja or a full pirate.
I side with the pirate in the end, because I feel a person should be doing what they desire at all times, whether they are a captain or serving a captain.
(Holy crap, did I overuse the word "ultimate")

You're so intelligent. You must have lived a life as a ninja and a pirate to know so much. ninja pirate

I feel so happy that this question was asked! My elder brother got me a book on ninjutsu for Christmas and now I get to use that knowlege!
I have to say ninjas. Why, might you ask?
Because they have discovered a way to poison anything.
They add poison to small ecosystems gradually so that the flora and fauna becomes resistant to the poison, but anyone that fishes there or eats the plants dies.
They added poison to candle wax so that they could time when a candle would burn down to the poison part of the wick to kill enimies very peacefully.
They added poison to their own food to become used to it!
Poison was on almost every weapon!
Hell, they even found out a way to poison the vaginas of their women so that they could have a female seduce a guy and he would die of NINJA SEX! How cool is that!
I tend to get very excited about stuff like this because I like to talk about they ways that older cultures would try to kill eachother. Have you ever seen a program on Medieval torture? Those guys were so good at inflicting pain.
(I should mention here that I'm not a sadist. I just marval at how much time, energy, and rescources were poured into trying to kill eachother!)
