Well, certainly the "Yarrg" saying ,peg-legged, hook-handed, sword & musket wielding guys with eye-patches and parrots.
But there are some people getting a little pissed off about modern pirates, who are pretty proficient thugs.
Just yesterday there was this little treat.

The pirates struck on Monday night and seized money and documents from the Japanese-registered boat. Indonesia sent three navy ships to the area, though officials said the pirates could now be in Malaysian waters.
In case you're wondering - what is the achetype of a pirate who takes over modern ships?
The attack followed a raid by 35 pirates, armed with rocket launchers.
Somehow, swords and muskets have way more panache - but maybe that's just me.
