I would probably teach it some quotes from various movies, TV shows, and video games, such as Back To The Future, Monty Python, Duke Nukem, Simpsons, Futurama, and Family Guy, just to name a few. I would also teach it to say "Wumpus is fat", to poke fun at my SIL's obese ginger cat.

Parrots make me kind of nervous. Their beaks can bite a broomstick in half. If I owned a parrot it would probably say, "Aaagh, my fingers!" :lol:

I'd rather use a tape recorder, they don't poop and molt feathers everywhere, don't have to be fed, I get to keep all my fingers and I don't have to worry about my cats being around them.

If a parrot lived in my house it would likely sing A LOT (assuming it was copying me).

My parrot would sing a little, and say things like:

"Oops. Sh*t."
"Yay! Finally!"
"I hate that"
"I love that"

Mine would probably say something creepypasta-ish, like ...

"you've met a terrible fate, haven't you".

:twisted:

I once had a parrot, whom I bought in Bosnia, who could say "Give me candy, sergeant." I did. And I brought him into Finland, where he learned to sing "God save the Queen" in Finnish. It took me half a month to realize this bird outwits me. Ever since, be've been staring at each other.

:lol: You crack me up, Krabo.

Yours will probably end up saying "Nevermore",
while staring, perched above your chamber door.
