Rude parrot

This is dedicated to my friend Nurul, in the efforts of cheering you up :-) I know you'll be reading, so here it comes.

Nurul received a parrot for her 22nd birthday.

The parrot was fully-grown with a bad attitude and worse vocabulary. Every other word was an expletive. Those that weren't expletives were, to say the least very very rude.

Nurul tried hard to change the bird's attitude and was constantly saying polite words, playing soft music, anything she could think of to try and set a good example. Nothing worked.

She yelled at the bird and the bird yelled back. She shook the bird and the bird just got angrier and became even more rude. Finally in a moment of desperation, Nurul put the parrot in the freezer.

For a few moments she heard the bird squawk and kick and scream. Then suddenly, there was a ---- Not a sound for half a minute. Nurul was frightened that she might have hurt the bird and quickly opened the freezer door.

The Parrot calmly stepped out onto Nurul's extended arm and said: "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I will endeavor at once to correct my behavior. I really am truly sorry and beg your forgiveness."

Nurul was astonished at the bird's change in attitude and was about to ask what had made the difference and caused such a dramatic change, when the parrot slowly continued:

"May I ask what the chicken did???"

P/S : No, you're not getting a parrot from me. I'm not risking a life to be thrown into a freezer!
