Talk like a pirate day

Can someone please explain the sudden national obsession with 
pirates?  I was at a family camp last weekend and the jokes making 
the rounds were all pirate jokes.

This is all Disney's fault, isn't it?  I feel like we're being 
hypnotized.  "You will give a damn about pirates.  You will think 
they're amusing.  You will actually pay $8 to watch a 90-minute 
advertisement for Disneyworld.  You are getting very sleepy."
