Fear is the mindkiller.
When I was a kid, I had to go to the dentist and as I sat in the waiting room, I periodically heard horrible screams. I, uh, wasn't enthusiastic when they finally called me in. Turns out it was a parrot.
That sounds better until you realize that it would've been mimicking sounds it heard previously.
There are definitely parrots in that store.
The parrots posted that sign
Every sign has a story...
The impact of the outbreak on the U.S. Hygienic Laboratory, with 16 of its workers affected, including two deaths, led to the formation of the National Institute of Health.
Wow! Today I learned.
I expected killer birds or something, this is kind of a downer but not your fault. Thanks anyway
No, this is obviously interesting. Thanks alot!
Interesting
My initial guess was that the parrots were taught some foul language, and sign was to assure parents that their kid's ears were safe
No more parrots, just a couple of very full snakes... :-P
This! Is an ex parrot store!
It's pining for the psittacines!
Pets of all kinds? Where are the parrots? Hmmm?
Were the parrots like convincing people to commit suicide during the Great Depression or something?
Enjoy yourself with pets.... Hmmmmm
