Surely you jest? If not, then I suspect you have already offended them by "forgetting" (I'm sure), that -- as everyone knows -- because "Talk Like A Pirate Day" is the Pastafarian equivalent of Christmas, the Eve of the New Year (celebrated with a special pasta dish and Burns supper) always occurs on September 25th, six days after the blessed 19th.
