The next time you spit your dummy out, go into one and start swearing and shouting... Consider this;
A young man named Byron received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the birds mouth was rude, disgusting, obnoxious and laced with profanity. Young Byron tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, young Byron got fed up and yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back, only worse. Young Byron shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder.
In desperation, young Byron grabbed the parrot and threw it into the freezer.
For a few minutes the parrot squawked, kicked and screamed the rudest of all swear words at the top of its lungs, when siddenly in mid sentence, silence. Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing he had hurt the parrot, young Byron quickly opened the freezer door.
The parrot stepped calmly out from inside the freezer and stepped gently onto young Byron's outstretched arm and said "I believe I may have offended you with my rude words and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everthing I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behaviour".
Young Byron was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behaviour, the bird continued....
"May I ask what the turkey did?"
Merry Christmas
