Stupid
Joke of The Day
(June 2, 1999)
Hey, our first parrot joke... |
| This guy buys a parrot at a pet shop and the
proprietor promises him that the bird will be a great talker. Not interested in learning
much about the bird other than its capacity for speech, the guy rushes home and starts the
lessons. The next day, he returns to the pet shop and complains that the bird hasn't said a word. "Hmmm" says the pet shop owner. "Maybe he needs a swing." So the guy buys the swing and goes home. Next day he's back at the pet shop complaining again. This time the owner suggests a cuttlebone. Next day, same thing, not a single word, and the owner sells him a cassette for teaching a bird to speak. And so on for a couple of days. By now the guy has bought the bird toys, a ladder, and another tape. But he shows up again at the store and tells the proprieter that the bird has died. "Poor bird" says the pet shop owner. And the guy agrees, but says he's happy at least to tell the
owner that the bird finally spoke before he passed on. "Really?" he says,
"Tell me, what did he say?" And the guy says " Water !! Water !!" |
