Write a silly story where a modern-day pirate (software piracy) reminisces about the glory days of piracy during the age of sailing ships, then waking up one day and finding himself transported into the past.

Amir had always wanted to be a dentist, but a lack of money to go to school and the need to support his ailing mother had taken that off of the table. He got what he needed to take care of her through piracy – running a torrenting website that monetized illegal downloads of songs and movies. It wasn’t much, and he often thought about how lame he looked compared to the pirate crews of old.

Back in the old days, pirates had their own republic and commanded massive vessels capable of going up against anyone, while he could only tackle defenseless ships and had to run before any assistance came. He didn’t have a crew to sing sea shanties with, a parrot to perch on his shoulder, and his tattered outfit certainly couldn’t compete with 17th-century fashion. As he was going to sleep one night, he thought to himself, “If I had to be a pirate, at least I could have been one of the cool ones.” 

The next morning, he woke up and quickly realized he was not in his home. It was dark and the world was rocking side to side around him. Was this an earthquake? No, the rocking was because he was at sea. As Amir got out of his bunk, he looked around and saw other sleeping men and women. These were his crewmates. As it turned out, he had been sent to the past and become a pirate of old!
