That depends on which type of pirate you mean, the real kind or the fictional kind.

Real pirates, either historical or modern, are robbers, kidnappers, and murderers. Most pirates commit their crimes for profit or they come to the life by coercion or out of desperation from lives in dire circumstances. They wear an eye patch only if they have an injury to their eye. They dress in clothing representative of their period. They are armed with whatever weapons are available in their historical period. Ancient pirates used spears, swords, and knives; when firearms became available, they added those to their arsenal; today's pirates are armed with the firearms of today. Historical pirates often got their bravado from alcohol; today's pirates more often use illegal drugs for the same purpose. Pirates boats and ships, their arms, and their provisions are most often stolen or the spoils of piracy. Historical or modern pirates were and are dangerous people who often have little regard for the lives of others.

Fictional pirates may have some of the following in common.

Yelling RRRR

Cutlasses

Bandannas

Tricorner Hats

Wooden legs

Jugs of rum

Stolen goods

Stolen ships
