A lonely priest decides to buy a pet. After much deliberation, he decides a parrot would be good company because it can talk to him.
Unfortunately, not five minutes after arriving home, the parrot starts hurling a string of expletives at the priest.
After about an hour it gets to be too much, so the priest walks up to the parrot, slaps him on the beak, and yells, "QUIT IT!" But this just makes the parrot mad and he starts swearing at the priest in even more colorful language.
Finally the priest has had it and says, "All right, that's it. The priest grabs a blanket, throws it over the parrot's cage and screams, "Now, SHUT UP!" Well, this really irritates the parrot and he starts clawing and scratching on the bars of his cage. Finally the priest removes the blanket. Immediately the parrot starts spewing vile words again at the priest.
By this time, the priest is so infuriated that he grabs the parrot by the throat and throws him into the freezer. Well, the parrot starts swearing and thrashing about so loudly that the priest is wondering if the bird might not be demon possessed. Suddenly, it gets very, very quiet.
At first the priest just stares at the refrigerator, but then he starts to think that the parrot might be seriously injured. He becomes so worried that he runs over to the refrigerator and throws open the freezer door.
The parrot climbs out of the freezer, flaps the ice off his wings, and says," Please, please, forgive me. I’m awfully sorry about the trouble I've caused you father. I promise I will never use bad language again, or disrespect you in any way, shape or form. I can’t imagine what got into me. I’m so ashamed.”
The priest is astounded. He can't believe the sudden transformation that has come over the parrot. Finally the parrot turns to the priest and says, "Um, excuse me father....by the way, what did the chicken do?"
