I wish to complain about this parrot, what I purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique...

Remarkable bird, the African Grey, isn't it, eh? Beautiful plumage!

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That parrot is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged squawk.

... and I noticed that the language it was spouting came from a recording device taped to the bottom of it's cage...  :o

Look, I took the liberty of examining that parrot when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place was that it had been NAILED there.

when i was a kid, my friend Alex's mom had a parrot that said "krraaaw Alex,clean your room". all the time. i guess it picked it up from Alex's mom constantly yelling it at him. it was so funny to us, but poor Alex hated that bird.

We had grey parrots and they would ape my father's standard commands to the dogs note perfect driving the poor shepherds nuts with it.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

My ex-girlfriend's sister's ex-boyfriend had a grey parrot which would meow like a cat. You'd look all over the house for the cat just knowing it was stuck under or behind something then you'd realize the parrot was screwing with you.
