Well, that depends, would the deceased enjoy the idea that someone was talking like a pirate at their funeral? If so, it may still be technically inappropriate, but you can use the argument, "they would have wanted me to."

But you should leave off the scurvy dog part, Wombat, if you want to maintain relations.

Tell me now, willya, how this be different from any other day of the yearrrrrrrrr? Fer some'a us is just when we get to stop pretendin' we talk the language of the locals...
In all seriousness, Wombat, I'm sorry you had funerals to go to.
but just in case there is ever any question later, if I die you are all to talk like pirates about me at least a couple sentences apiece.
What?
I'm just sayin.
A simple "Take what ya can, give nothin' back" would suffice.
But if March repeats what he just said to me, quote: "Aye, she was a fine wench," I might reconsider...
but then again if there's a chance hobie might call me 'you little minx' again... *roflmao* Minx, wench, there are worse things to be called *giggle*.
Hey, "Bring me that Horizon" would make a great thing to put on a tombstone wouldn't it? a lot better than the one I thought would be fitting given some of the people in my family--which would have been simply to have my tombstone read "Satisfied???!"

I'm hanging in tharrrrrrrrrr. Got the last stitch outta my eye today! Wish I'd had a bottle of rum first!
You could always tell them that you'll make em walk the plank!
If they say there is no plank where you work (as in if you're land-locked) then that is when I'd say something along the lines of this...
"Apparently no one's told ya about the subterrrrainian tunnels down below..."
then stomp your foot on the floor and glare at them menacingly while muttering something quietly and indistinctly about
the call of the Siren and the sea...
