would be helpful if others could explain:

movie
tv series
comic book
hot topic
goth
season

being honest would help most
thank you very much for assisting us :)

Movies and TV shows are like pictures that tell stories
except they have sounds and move too. Movies are one big
long story you go to a theater to watch and TV is a bunch
of small stories you watch at home. Comic books are TV
shows in books without the sound and some people get
really angry about them I guess? I don't know hot topic
but people talk about hot gossip on twitter I think so
maybe it's like that? Goth is when you wear a lot of black
and likes skulls I like how those people dress. Seasons
are when the weather is different for a long time and
it goes in a cycle every year. Scurvy is something sailors
yell about in pirate stories? And dude is just something
you can call people but it kind of also means a man too
so girls get mad if you call them that sometimes.

thank you for helping :)

what is a pirate ? another word for sailor ?

[demonpuppy]

They're like sailors that are also thiefs? There's
lot's of other junk too but that's the big part I
guess.

[forwearemany]

Though thiefs is not innaccurate it is an insufficient descriptor: pirates are also brutal murderers and slavers.

(If it sounds like they speak from experience it's because they do.)

[lightlessfuture]

they sound bad!

so pirates are very bad maybe-sailors on ships that go on the sea ? [ Blobbing all the information they've retained from this post into one big sentence. ]

[forwearemany]

Yes.

There are also pirates that live in starships.

(Legion comes from an awesome space future. With horrible space pirates.)

[demonpuppy]

You have space pirates??? Are you from space???

[HOLY SHIT A FOR REAL ALIEN]

[forwearemany]

Yes.

(Not just an alien, an alien robot. Not that they've mentioned the robot part.)
