A tickle in the back of your throat. I must go check some of medical books. Don’t go anywhere.

Would it feel like a frog?

Boy, this guy is never going to make a full-fledged (pun intended) geek at this rate.

Yeah, a very fowl feeling.

That he can say anything, as you say he can, is the shocker of them all!

It started just after I attended a football game. Funny thing — the beginning of the game was interrupted when several cows parachuted in.

Hmmm, does it taste like chicken?

Plucky fellow. But he needs to work on his table manners.

A little down in the mouth?

Bird of Paradise took a wrong turn. Should have been his nose.

Just the sight of that annoys me! ;o(

Hmmmm, a tickle in your throat, heh!? I see, I see. And you say that scratching it with a chicken didn’t help?

Choking (on the) chicken?

Let me know if there’s a scratching sensation.

yeah, well you’ve got chicken feet too.

I guess he is feeling peckish…

Well, the difference between kinky and perverted is with kinky you use a feather, perverted uses the whole chicken!

Quack doctor

Oh there’s a REALLY rude remark possible here!
