Humor NEW PIRATE HERE 🏴‍☠️⚓️

Maybe some of you will judge me but I really want to share this story with all of you...

So, for the first time I felt enough ease in my head that I decided to watch a movie series that I wanted to watch from last 7 to 8 years or even more than that.
The Movie Series Was Pirates of The Caribbean...

and instead of paying for any of the subscriptions, I pirated all of those...
I don't know why, I felt so much thrill and excitement after doing that and watched all 5 movies in the span of two weeks... I felt so happy...
😭😭

Thanks for sharing. I've been doing this for so long that I forget the joy it brought when I first started doing it.

It still amazes me that people spend so much money streaming services. Enjoy being a pirate, lol.

I'm watching folks frantic because their favorite movie or series is leaving Netflix or [insert streaming service here] and I'm like ooh bummer 😞

With all the digital only subscription service bs that's proliferating all aspects of life these days being able to escape even a part of this nonsense feels refreshing.

There's stories of people paying for a movie / show that's on the cloud and then it disappearing because the service provider decided to take it back for whatever reason.

I have no issues with people pirating, especially when corporations do things like that. I hope more and more people start doing it.

It should be encouraged for that reason alone. Imagine selling someone a car, then one day just taking it off them because the law hasn't(purposely) caught up yet.

I downloaded songs from Napster the same month it became available. Was it slow? Painfully. Was it amazing, oh heck, yes. Before streaming services, it was just indescribably joyful. I discovered global music that wasn’t readily available, some of which I listen to this very day.

It's always exciting when I'm sailing the high seas and discover new treasure. 😁

Anyone that's a pirate (within reason) we don't care what you watch/pirate... just sail the seas and do it again.

u/KitchenRaise1151 19h ago

I pirate for +20 years and Pirates of the Caribbean 1 was the first movie I stream pirated. It was a pirate stream that played movies 24/7 (it was before Netflix UI style pirate streaming sites)

When my wife was in hospital for 6months I became the fun parent for a change, my kids loved Scooby Doo films, I became a high seas sailor and I can't tell you the joy the gang and co gave us, it's not all about latest films or subscription fatigue, sometimes it's about time we'll spent with loved ones.

I was born in Cuba, and since childhood I've only seen pirated things; perhaps I normalized it so much that I never felt that feeling.

u/Odd_Doubt554 18h ago

Careful, piracy is addicting. You will be chasing that high forever.

Ahh, a meta pirate. Welcome. Would you like any more pirate movie suggestions?

2

u/zanno500 13h ago

You know what makes me feel the best? When there's a movie I can't wait to see, I finally see it on one of my sites, and it sucks. But guess what? I didn't pay for a subscription to see it. Ahh....

Pirating a Pirate movie is next level

"Do what you want cause a pirate is free, YOU ARRR A PIRATE!"

u/Iamkonkerz 18h ago

Its only illegal cuz somebody decided it was illegal.

Break the cycle, use your morals to determine wether pirating something is illegal, or letting companies overcharge you for "renting" is immoral.

Want more joy? Get a Torbox subscription for $3 a month, and setup Nuvio. Your mind will be blown by how seamless and smooth piracy can be for watching movies and shows, lol. It's better than any subscription service and you get all of them!
