New plan. 1: buy parrot. 2: download a bunch of creepy sound clips from movies. 3: play on repeat whenever I’m not home. 4: go on vacation, have someone house/pet-sit for me. 5: laugh hysterically.
Aaaaaaah, just think, it could be worse– he could be learning swear words and yell them at the top of his little lungs whenever there are guests (say, parents or little kids) around! Or he could be doing what my dad’s African Grey Parrot, Gandalf, would do. Gandalf, would imitate a smoke alarm and Mom HATED it. So she’d yell “DEAD BIRD!” at him. Well, after a while, he picked THAT up, so he would sit there, do “smoke alarm”, yell “DEAD BIRD” and then laugh. Lots of laughing. XD
He’d also whistle for the dog to come over, and when she did, he would hop to the bottom of the cage and throw nuts at her… which she promptly ate (despite being hit on the head with them). And then the dog would get sick and get yelled at. Well, she was yelled at, until my parents realized it was Gandalf’s fault. He also liked to make a phone-ring noise, then have little conversations with it– “*ring, ring* Hello?…. uh-huh… yeah…. okay, sure…. no….. okay then, talk to you later, bye!”
ZOMBIE PARAKEET! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

You have just come up with the best. idea. ever!
Shaun Of The Dead is my favorite movie OF ALL TIME! I automatically love this comic.
Gotta love the look on his face in the last panel.
Priceless.

Oh my gosh, that’s hilarious!! Thanks for sharing
Our caique isn’t the talking type — he’s more of a sound mimicker. It’s still funny, though
