| Only when it's my parrot. Seriously. She whistles a "beep" sound exactly every three seconds, sometimes for an entire hour. 8O 8O Did you know that parrots will intentionally do stuff to annoy you?

| I hate that for you... I think the person is a passive agressive - you know they do something to bend you out of shape then it becomes YOUR fault! I can't sympathize with you enough, having been there myself. Any advice I could offer would only be inflammitory.. so I'll keep schtum! |
