As a result of being stuck in the spin cycle, I missed the recent Parrot Cycle. Is it too late for the Classic? As I’ve said before, there are no new jokes, and even if you’ve heard this one before, you’re hearing it now at its most recent…
A retired man of the cloth buys a parrot from a retired sailor. “Don’t worry,” the sailor assures him. “This bird has been around some salty language, but he’s nearly always genteel.”
Well, the ex-preacher soon finds out that “nearly always” means “almost never,” and soon the bird is, well, cussing like a sailor.
“You stop that swearing, or I’ll do something drastic!” the reverend says.
“You wouldn’t ****ing dare!” replies the parrot.
“Either straighten up and speak right, or it’s the cooler for you!”
“Up yours!” the bird screams. So the retired minister takes the parrot to his kitchen freezer, opens the door, and tosses him in.
Five minutes pass, and the preacher decides to check up on his new avian acquisition. He opens the freezer door, and a very contrite parrot comes out. “I humbly apologize for my disgraceful behavior, Sir. And I promise you it won’t happen again.”
“You’re forgiven, of course,” the man replies.
“I have just one question,” the parrot says. “Please, Sir – what did the chicken say?”
