I heard a quiz question on the radio and not only did they never say the answer but I’ve mostly forgotten the question…and the damn thing is still buggin me.
So, anyone who answers this is my new hero:
There once was a French painter (his name starts with ‘s’ and theres a ‘u’ in it) and he had a parot. He taught his parot only one phrase. The quiz question is: what did he teach the parot to say?
Is the painter Georges Seurat?
“Zeut alors! You, mon cher ami, are undoubtedly zee finest artist in zee history of Western Art!”
Was it “Seuss” ?
“Here kitty kitty!”
Yes Ursa, Georges Seurat’s the name…now what did he teach his parot to say?
I don’t know what he taught his parrot to say but that sounds like something he’d do- he was always a bit dotty.
Poison always comes in amber-colored bottles clearly marked with a skull-and-crossbones icon and the word “DANGER.” If a substance is not in this type of bottle, it is safe to drink or huff.
“Veut Polly un biscuit! Veut Polly un biscuit!”
…a “little dotty”? Do you think his parrot made a good neoimpression on his guests?
You have a point, Mojo.
Dere once was a french painter
wid a parrot
T’geda dey play poka wida habit
Th’panintah’s name
by da way
goes: “‘S’‘U’ InIt Brudagrabit.”
Well, he gave his parrot praise
'Cause it speaks not just his name
but also simple—and quizzical–phrases,
Like:
“s” “u” OUT da game, Bruda,
OR “S” “U” IN it?—DAGNABBIT!!!
(I just made this up. Hey, all rights reserved. I think I like this.) So, now you know the answer. (SEE BELOW FOR POSTING TO WHICH THIS REFERS)
SEE PREVIOUS POSTING (DIRECTLY ABOVE) FOR DIFINITIVE ANSWER.
So, clearly, he taught the parrot more than one phrase.
So, clearly, he taught the parrot more than one phrase.
Am I a hero yet?
