1: Because it is a vile drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels.
2: Because that signal is over a thousand feet high. The entire royal navy is out looking for me, do you think there is even the slightest chance they won't see it?

famous line by Captain Jack Sparrow Johnny Depp from the Disney 2003 summer blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.
Sparrow asks this rahter rhetorical question to Miss Elizabeth Swann Keira Knightley when she starts burning all the rum to make a signal for the British Navy so that she and Sparrow could be rescued.

1) A question used when one wants to know why the rum has gone
2) A very funny line used by Johnny Depp in the most recent pirates of the carribean when he plays Jack Sparrow.
Johnny Depp says "why is the rum gone?" then falls over.

A line made famous by Pirates of The Caribbean. Asked by Jack Sparrow to himself when he is doing map work and his bottle of rum is empty.
*Johnny tries to do his math homework, so he grabs his bottle to have a drink; only to realize it is empty*
Johnny: Why is the rum always gone?
*he gets up and walks drunkenedly*
Johnny: Oh, that's why.

Question asked when confused about the disappearance of rum. Taken from Pirates of the Carribean.
"Why rum gone?"
"Because it's a foul smelling drink that turns the noblest man into a dishonourable pirate."
"But why's the rum gone?"
