You know you're a Parront when...

[Inger]

You know you’re a parront when you say, “Great job pooping!” [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] yes, yes it is true.

Or the similar “You pooped on me! But that’s a good lookin’ poop!”

I saw this T-shirt today.... and of course it made me think of our Fids.

When you and your husband often talk about bird poop during meals...

 

[GaleriaGila]

... when a wonderful old buddy is having lunch with you at a cafe, and she shares with you how she accidentally ingested a tiny piece of cockatiel poop, and it tasted weird, but kinda like wheat germ and crunchy, and you both were momentarily speechless, but then laughed, only to realize that several nearby tables overheard you, and are now slack-jawed in horror.

TRUE STORY!

LOL! I totally always buy weird singular fruit and it has to annoy the clerk...a tangerine, an apple, a pear, a peach, a kiwi etc.

 

[ChristaNL]

Hahahahaha, oh I love these -> only birdpeople understand!


Today I did not only have to fish a macaw out of my morning-cuppa (tea) twice, I also had the honour of bobbing for cedernutshellparticles ...
(say that 5 times very fast )

The first time around Sunny dunked her oversized beak in my tea it was to taste it, the second time because..well...you've got to rinse the beak somewhere, right?

An alarm goes off and your nonbird friends say, "Drive faster. It's bird bedtime."

 

[Sunnyclover]

When you try to wrap up all the days activities by a certain time (6pm) because that's "seeds time" lol. Each birdie gets a small amount of seeds at 6pm and they really really look forward to it. How could we be late?!

 

[Squeekmouse]

...when you have conversations with your spouse where you both imitate your Fid imitating you.

These days we start every morning by saying "Good morning!" and "Hi Yoda!" in Yoda's voice because that's what wakes us up every morning. Oh, that makes me think of another!!

...when you never oversleep anymore because your Fid wakes you up promptly at the same time every morning.

 

[LeslieA]

You apologize to your birds because you hit the snooze alarm.

 

[noodles123]

When you ask co-workers if they can hold after school meetings at your house (and if they are afraid of birds) lol....Happened yesterday...

OMG!!! EVERY DANG DAY "OH, do you have to poop? GOOD POOPING!!!! YAY, WHAT A GOOD POOP!" lololol


My bird poops on command at this point...I sh*t you not (couldn't help but use that tasteless pun lol)


Honestly, I say "go poop" and she does so within 2 minutes lol. I am so glad I am not the only weirdo.

 

[charmedbyekkie]

When you go grocery shopping during your lunch break because after-work hours are fid hours.

 

[Billdore]

When you hear a whistle when your out and about and it scares the crap out of you cause you suddenly wonder how she got out. Then your like oh wait.

 

[gracebowen]

You let your Lovie bathe in your hands even though you know you will get bit.

 

[LeslieA]

Also, at school, I have done this a few times. I'd forget to do a homework assignment. My teacher asks why I didn't do it. My excuse: My parrots shredded it.

Hey, at work once, I had to explain to the Accounting department that my bird ate my paycheck. They asked how big and I showed them. (It was a lovebird!) They laughed. People including the CEO kept stopping by my desk to ask if that was really true.

 

[LaManuka]

When you’re on the bus sitting behind a guy with a big raised mole on his neck and all you can think is “I know a birdie who would LOVE to excise that thing for you right now mate !” No queues, no waiting, no anaesthesia, just one chomp and it’s GONE!

 

[Endix]

When you forget to cook for yourself for three days straight but your birds always have their chop exactly on time

 

[cnyguy]

You get a $50 Amazon gift card for Christmas and you don't spend any of it on yourself-- it all goes for treats, toys and perches for the parrots.

 

[LaManuka]

When there’s more bird food dishes, water bowls, troughs & cups in your washing up than people stuff.

Edit: And it’s already got poop in it again 5 minutes after being reinstalled in the cage!
