Hahaha I forgot that one!
If you liked that one FRiend, you’ll enjoy this, I heard this from a former boss of mine, Lt. Commander Hugh Mason in 1977, I doubt that this story has been heard in too many places but it is a keeper:
An elderly lady living by herself decided that she wanted a talking parrot to keep her company, so she went to the local pet shop to ask about it, the storekeeper told her he’d be glad to sell her a talking parrot and asked how much money she had to spend, “I’m on a fixed income and can only afford $20” she said.
The storekeeper sadly shook his head and said “I can’t sell you a talking parrot for $20, but I’ll tell you what I can do, I’ve got this Myna Bird over here I’ll let you have for $20, but he only says one phrase, let me show you, and he snaps his fingers and yells “hey bird!” and the Myna bird turns it’s head and says “WHO IS IT?”
The storekeeper says “that’s all he can say, is ‘who is it?’ but you can have him if you want him”
The lady was elated, paid her $20, and put the Myna in her car, talking a blue streak all the way home “ohhh, I’ll introduce you to my sewing circle, and to the ladies in my prayer group?” to which the bird said “WHO IS IT? WHO IS IT?” so she gets home, puts the bird on a perch near the front door and says “now I’m going back out to get you some toys and bird seed and treats, I’ll be back soon”
“WHO IS IT?!?!” Screeched the Myna Bird.
The lady is gone only a few minutes before the delivery man from the local butcher shop stops by, knocks on the door, and the bird responds “WHO IS IT?!?”
“It’s the butcher lady”
“WHO IS IT!??!”
“Lady, it’s the butcher.”
“WHO IS IT?!?!”
“LADY!?!? It’s the g@dd*mmned BUTCHER!!!”
“WHO IS IT?!?”
The butcher shop delivery guy gets so worked up, he has a heart attack and falls over face down, dead as a door nail right there on the lady’s front porch.
The lady returns, steps up on the porch, sees a dead man laying there, and as she opens the door she says “oh my GOD, who is it?!?”
“IT’S THE BUTCHER!!!!!!”
