I use to worked at a pet store and met a woman who had a parrot who would hurl racial slurs at her husband. She wanted to know if there was a way to make birds forget words. She also claimed she had no idea where the bird learned that word.

A few weeks later a man came in angrily buying a ton of bird food. Slamming it down on the counter. I ask if, "everything is okay?" He answers, "all this fucking money I spend on this damn bird. Do you know what it calls me!?"

Laughed till there were tears in my eyes.
