I know it is a little bit early, but have a happy Thanksgiving anyways!
| Quote: |
The Parrot
A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.
Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly open the door to the freezer, the parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what ha d made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"
HAPPY THANKSGIVING! |

fucking hell, just when i thought humanity in the US could not sink any lower it proves me wrong. Seriously . . . will the crowed be charged with manslaughter now or did everyone just walk way, get their iPod and shug, not feeling responsible for the death of a human being.
I'm dreading Christmas, the radio stations are ramped with their damn jingle bells now and most of the hot gifts are electronic shits that will not even last a freaking year. Wow, the holiday season makes me Emo.

I blame Walmart.
Offer better prices throughout the season, don't force everyone into your store all on the same day and time.
Offering one day deals is why this shit happens. People want to save money because they can't afford the regular prices for everything.
