The Tale of the Talkative Parrot: A Barroom Comedy

One day, a man walked into a bar with a very smart talking parrot on his shoulder. The man sat down at the bar and ordered a drink, while the parrot perched on his shoulder began chatting away.

As the man sipped his drink, the parrot turned to him and said, "Hey, I bet I can make everyone in this bar laugh."

The man chuckled and replied, "I highly doubt that, but go ahead and give it a shot."

The parrot stood up on the man's shoulder and cleared its throat. "Knock knock," the parrot began.

The bar fell silent as everyone eagerly waited for the punchline. "Who's there?" the man played along.

"Orange," the parrot replied.

"Orange who?" the man asked.

"Orange you glad I didn't say banana?" the parrot exclaimed.

The entire bar erupted in laughter, with people clapping and cheering at the clever joke from the talking parrot. The man smiled proudly and ordered another drink, knowing that he had the funniest bird in town.

From that day on, the man and his parrot became regulars at the bar, entertaining everyone with their witty banter and hilarious jokes. The man was always the life of the party, thanks to his feathered friend who could always deliver a good laugh.

And as the man and the parrot left the bar that night, the parrot turned to him and said, "Hey, I told you I could make everyone laugh. Looks like we're the real MVPs of this joint!"
