JackSpeak

To mumble or say things as if you were Jack Sparrow.

JackSpeak is the art of talking like this:

"...No! If we don't have the key, we can't
open whatever it is we don't have that
it unlocks. So what purpose would be
served in finding whatever need be unlocked,
which we don't have, without first having
found the key what unlocks it?..."
