Pirates versus Ninjas

An internet debate over whether pirates or ninjas are better; Hank says he is on Team Ninja, though a pirate puppy would be awesome.

Early context: Hank asks John to give the 'peg-legged' puppy an eyepatch, and maybe a parrot, for tomorrow's video; though on Team Ninja, he'd love a pirate puppy. — Adorable Puppy Injury!!!! 00:01:37
