I'd say talk like a pokemon day, but that may lead to mass suicides.

Si-mon! Si Si MON!

Oh god.

Sorry for not knowing ancient Scandinavian languages.

You could just say something in Danish. (brought to you by the powers of this 'interweb' thing everyone seems to be talking about)

"Jer artig hr er ikke mand og jeg se frem til jeres demise henne ved den hænder i opgave regn's rotte knokle"

Translation: "you good sir are no gentleman and I look forward to your demise at the hands of Purple Rain's rat gimps"

Apparently there is no Danish word for demise.

Talk like a Final Fantasy Character

"Dude, check out that monster!"

"I'm the monster...I'M THE MONSTER!"

"Dude chill out."

"I'm the chill. The chill of death that I bring to everyone close to me. I"M THE MONSTER!"

Or a Talk like batman day.
"MY PARENTS ARE DEEEEEEAAAAAAAAD!"

You spoony bard.

Alternatively:
I will destroy everything! I will create a monument to non-existence!
You people sound like chapters from a self-help book!
I'm a general, not some opera floozy!
(Because Kefka and Celes both rock.)

I'm... Cloud. The master of my own illusionary world.
Don't forget that your skinny ass's workin' for AVALANCHE now!

It's not the language, it's the Shakespearian tone. Vikings are brutes.

That sir, would be a broad generalization on the verge of racism, and I cannot respect that opinion.

Also I like Shakespearian tones...

I'd suggest "Talk Like a Nazi Scientist Day", but some might consider that gauche.

"Talk Like Mark Trail Day"?

"Talk Like Minsc Day"?

"Talk Like a Borg Day"?

I'm telling you, the sooner we have "Talk like Bob Ross Day", the closer we are to world peace.

I'm also an advocate for "Talk In Shakespearian English Day" but in reference to modern terms. Like in that weird ass movie "Romeo + Juliet" with Leonardo DiCaprio. That'd be an interesting day indeed.

And I'd like to see "Talk like Leonidas Day" where everything is said with a threatening intensity befitting a warrior king.

"Me, and MY MEN, WARRIORS THEM ALL! (background *hoorah!*) Refuse to bow to you and your EIGHT DOLLAR COVER CHARGE!!!"

Aha, but since I am in fact culturally related to vikings, I can say whatever I want about them without being a racist. Much in the same way that a certain word beginning with n is merely a friendly joke when uttered by a person of african heritage.

Vikings are smelly and their beards are tangled.

If you really want it, I can translate that other sentence into something that makes sense. For an enormous fee, of course.

Talk like an Australian.

"Hey Mate, lets go throw some shrimp on the Barby.

Kangaroo's"

Don't crucify me!

it amuses me that you have no idea how we talk. all those Australian stereotypes you love so much are actually made up by Americans for movies. not that you would know this, since you clearly dont know any Australians ;)

Ah, but being a New Zealander, I know tonnes of them.
And I would say that Aries_Split's post was right on the money.
And Aries_Split? You good sir may also have a cigar (I have alot of cigars to get rid of)

Well I live in Oz, am English originally, and I've visited NZ... all I'll say is: what the hell do New Zealanders do to their vowels?!

Whats a vowel?

Yeah I have no idea, I like to think my accent isn't as bad as that of other New Zealanders, but it probably is.

Some of it doesn't really make any sense, but this is more or less what I got from it:

"Jer artig hr er ikke mand og jeg se frem til jeres demise henne ved den hænder i opgave regn's rotte knokle"

"You (plural) well-behaved/nice Sir is not man and I look/see (grammar is wrong here) forward to your demise over by the hands in assignment/task rain's rat (knokle)"

The last word, "knokle" means "work hard" in Danish. It's also related to the words for bone or knuckle. I can't think of a suitable English translation for it right now.
Now run it through the translator again. See how many times we have to do this to get Shakespeare.

Okay, I tried and got this

"Jer nå - artet / hyggelig Hr er ikke menneskene og JEG lede / se efter på levering hen til jeres demise slut af den hænder i opgave regn rotte hær"

suspecting that there was something wrong here I translated that back to english

"You nå behaved homelike Mr aren't man and I hunt look for på delivery to yours demise quit from the hænder to task rain rat hær"

What is the danish word for purple?

yeah... Maybe next time I wan't to say something in danish I should just ask a danish person.

The Danish don't believe in purple. They think it represents evil and sodomy.

Incidentally, I love the color purple.

Lilla or violet... you sodomist bastard.
Lilla is probably more correct.

Fun fact: In Swedish, Lilla Ninja means Little Ninja.

Talk like a Texter/IMer Day.

This day would simultaneously prove I was right about humanity, and destroy my hope for the future of civilization.

You've solved the puzzle sir. Unfortunately the only prize is my hidden appreciation for sodomy. What do you intend to do with this prize?

Also people already talk in IMer/Texting langauge pretty much everyday, so we don't really need a day dedicated to it. We could, however, use a day where this DOESN'T happen at all. Not even in text or instant messenger.

I was mostly referring to everyone using "El oh el" instead of physically laughing, or "oh em gee" instead of screaming/crying/looking shocked.

Conversely, non-IM/Text day would be a global holiday designed with people like me in mind.

As far as my prize goes, I was thinking of donating it to charity, or trading it in for another Iron Ninja Cigar.

Pretty much the same as before with more nonsense. Probably didn't help that you included all the words I translated twice and parantheses and such. I have no idea where fierceness came from though, seems like it inserted that by itself for some reason.

That is precisely what I meant. Though I suppose you would have had to recently been in a high school to hear this as often as I have (and still do in public). Its truely lowering my opinion of humanity to a new low. Its also frighteningly close to Newspeak from 1984. Ah, Big Brother will have us soon enough.

And yes, I feel the same way. I learned to type, spell, and speak properly for a reason. And while I choose not to speak properly alot of the time, I spent to much fucking time in typing classes to not use it.

Also I hate shitty spelling.

The fierceness was when I put in Violet probably. Oh well. At least to the uninitiated it would seem like I was speaking in danish. Though I doubt I will ever get it right.

Why don't you go to the site and see if you can translate it from danish into english.
"You good sir are no gentleman and I look forward to your demise at the hands of Purple rain's rat gimps."

I don't need no stinkin' site to translate that:
De er ingen gentleman Hr, og jeg vil se frem til deres undergang, forårsaget af Lilla regns rotte(gimps?)!

.. what the hell are rat gimps?
There's no proper way to say gentleman in Danish in a single word, we usually just say gentleman.

Instead of of gentleman, maybe just "sexy man" and instead of rat gimps it could be rat slaves.
