    This whole conversation would be different if we were discussing space ninjas and space pirates.

    Yes, or if you would've asked "why are bananas curved?",then this conversation would be different too

    I have no idea what you're talking about and I most likely don't want to know...

    Another vote for pirates. Not only are they way cooler (heck, they can wear eye patches) but they have the ultimate backing of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

    If instead of a guy a woman had said all that, it would be so sexy...

    About the philosophical question, as it gives no especific place to the fight, I'll suppose that they are fighting in a vacuum. If it was a one on one, then the ninja wins in only one draw of his sword. If it was of equals groups then ninjas win too, they can hide at plain sight and kill every pirate by stealth and guile, and they can also control minds.

    True, but Pirates have an impressive arsenal of witty one-liners which confuse the hell out of the ninja's, thus rendering their incredible fighting skills useless.

    Also, any self respecting pirate has a parrot, which as we all know, has decided many a ninja - pirate battle.

    They're such stupid lines that they're confusing?

    Pirates can never 'sneak attack' due to the sound of their wooden foot and numerous trinkets; not to mention their smell would draw attention (and the ninja would easily be alarmed).
