David and the parrot

[Adras]

The Parrot ==========

 

David received a parrot for his birthday.

 

This parrot was fully grown with a bad attitude and worse vocabulary. Every

other word was an expletive (curse word).

Those that weren't expletives were, to say the least rude.

 

David tried hard to change the bird's attitude and was constantly saying polite

words, playing soft music, anything he could think of to try and set a good

example.

 

Nothing worked.

 

He yelled at the bird and the bird got worse.

He shook the bird and the bird got more angry and more rude.

Finally, in a moment of desperation, David put the parrot in the freezer.

 

For a few moments he heard the bird squawking, kicking, and screaming, then

suddenly there was quiet. David was frightened that he might have hurt the bird

and quickly opened the freezer door.

 

The parrot calmly stepped out onto David's extended arm and said: "I'm sorry

that I might have offended you with my language and action and I ask your

forgiveness.

I will endeavor to correct my behavior."

 

David was astonished at the bird's change in attitude and was about to ask what

had made such a dramatic change when the parrot continued:

 

"May I ask what the chicken did?"

Nice. Heard it before, but that's one of the better tellings. In other news, it's MBs birthday, and guess what bird lives in his state?

 

 

EDIT: Well, either today or yesterday...

:D Quite good. This reminds me of the famous parrot Monty Python sketch. Now that, gentlemen, is comedy.

I too have heard this joke in the past, but unlike loveme4wboiam, I didn't think of the python's dead parrot sketch. But I do agree, both these are quite comedic gold
