Swearing Parrot

    There was this quiet, conservative man who happened to own a parrot. Unfortunately for the man, this parrot swore like a sailor. He would swear for five minutes straight without repeating himself. This bird's foul mouth was driving the man crazy.
    One day, it just got to be too much, so the man grabbed the bird by the neck, shook him really hard, and yelled:
    "QUIT IT!" But this just made the bird mad and he would start swearing even more.

    The guy finally got fed up and said, "OK for you" and locked the bird in a kitchen cabinet. This only aggravated the parrot who continued to claw and scratch the cabinet while he cursed even louder than before with a stream of swearing that would make a sailor blush.

    At that point the guy became so mad that he threw the parrot into the freezer! For the first few seconds the bird continued swearing, now louder, at the top of his lungs. He kicked and clawed and thrashed all about the place. Then it suddenly became VERY quiet. At first the guy just waited, but then he started to think that the bird might be hurt.

    After a couple of minutes of silence, he became so worried that he opened the freezer door. The bird calmly climbed on the man's out-stretched arm and said, with a slightly English accent:
    "Awfully sorry, old man, about all the trouble I gave you. I say there old chum, I'll do my best to improve my vocabulary from now on."

    The man was astounded and just could not believe nor understand the transformation that had come over the parrot.

    Then the parrot said, "By the way, good man, what exactly did the chicken do?"
