I had a parrot in college named Bird. We made a tape loop of George Carlin’s seven words you can’t say on television and played it constantly when in class for Bird. He mastered all seven.
I asked my folks to bird sit for spring break and my Mom said, “Let’s put him in the den where we spend the most time.” You can guess how that went over.
When we returned from spring break, Bird was way back in the laundry room with his sheet pulled over his cage. My Mom said Bird was the filthiest bird she’d ever met.
