Chirp, Chirp, Cheater: The Parrot's Got Tea!
Picture this: a dude in the UK learns his girlfriend is cheating on him, and it's not from a nosy friend or a late-night snoop sesh. Nope! It's from their pet parrot! I mean, can we talk about a winged whistleblower? This feathered fella starts squawking 'I love you, Gary' out of nowhere, and suddenly our boy is like, 'Wait, who the heck is Gary?' Talk about a red flag with wings, am I right? It’s like having an emotional support Alexa that spills the tea on your relationship! So, there he is, just chilling on the couch, and his parrot is throwing shade like it’s a reality TV show! We dive into this hilarious saga where the parrot takes on the role of the ultimate relationship commentator. Imagine the drama—every time the girl walks in, the parrot’s dishing out hot takes like, 'He deserves better' and 'Gary wouldn’t treat him like this.' Honestly, I’m here for it! So if you ever think about cheating, maybe don't do it in a house with a parrot. Or just don’t cheat at all!

Speaker B:Yeah, the parrot started squawking, I love you, Gary.
Speaker B:No, see, I'm not making this up.
Speaker B:Listen, first of all, when your own pet starts sounding like a late night text message, that should be a red flag with wings.
Speaker B:Can you imagine this guy just sitting at home watching tv, and suddenly the.
Speaker A:Parrot'S like, ah, love you, Gary.
Speaker A:Love you, Gary.

Speaker B:It's like having, you know, an emotional support Alexa over in the corner recording everything that you're your bay does.

Speaker A:I love you, Gary.

Speaker A:Keep our secrets.
Speaker A:Yeah, right.
Speaker B:I guess if you're going to cheat, don't do it in an apartment with a talking bird.
