Heehee... I dunno what to name this, so we'll call it the "Namless Parrot Joke"
"The Namless Parrot Joke"
David received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully
grown with a bad attitude and a vocabulary to match. Every other word was
an expletive. Those that were not expletives were, to say the least,
rude.
David tried hard to improve the parrot's attidue 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 yelled back. He shook the bird and the bird just became
more angry and more rude. Finally, in a moment of desperation, David
shoved the parrot into the freezer.
For a few moments he heard the bird squak and kick and scream -
then, suddenly, there was quiet. Not a sound for half a minute. David
became frightened that he might have hurt the bird and quickly opened the
freezer door. The parrot calmly stepped out onto David's e xtended arm and
said,
"I do believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions.
I will endeavor at once to correct my behavior. I really am truly
sorry and beg your forgiveness."
David was astonished at the parrot's sudden 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?"
