Jackson.<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;This bird&#8217;s language is not for the faint of heart. One day he will call you baby and the next day he&#8217;s calling you a&#8230;hmm. MFer I guess is the politest way to type it out. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;He says thank you when you give him snacks but will also tell you to shut up. He uses &#8220;what the hell?&#8221; in the correct context. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;This bird is rated R, parental advisory required, a real sour patch kid if one side was sugar and the other side was arsenic. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;When he says &#8216;cracker&#8217;, we&#8217;re not sure if he&#8217;s using it as an insult or if he&#8217;s asking for an actual cracker. He&#8217;ll be all sweet and affectionate and then turn around and call you a slur. (Yes. A slur. No, we&#8217;re not kidding.)<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;But we love him and he dances to music so we forgive him.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-06-24 13:09:30 People have applied to adopt an R-rated parrot.
