Pyro received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was
fully-grown,with a bad attitude and even worse vocabulary.

Every other word was a swear word.

Those that weren't four-letter words were, to say the least, rude.
Pyro tried hard to change the bird's attitude and was constantly
saying polite words, playing soft music, basically anything he could
think of to try and set a good example. Nothing worked. He yelled at the
bird and the bird yelled back. He shook the bird and the bird just got
angrier and ruder.

Finally, in a moment of desperation, Pyro put the parrot in the freezer.
For a few moments he heard the bird squawk, kick and scream.

Then suddenly there was quiet. Not a sound for half a minute.

Pyro was frightened that he might have hurt the bird and quickly opened the
freezer door. The parrot calmly stepped out onto Pyro's extended arm and
said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions.
I will endeavour at once to correct my behaviour. I really am truly sorry
and beg for your forgiveness."

Pyro was astonished at the bird's change in attitude and was
about to ask him what had made such a dramatic change, when the parrot
continued, "May I ask what the chicken did?"

I know of a certain cockatoo who could benefit from an attitude adjustment like this ick (maybe just a little longer in the freezer, say a couple of days).
 
You out there Mark??
