Sounds like my parrot, except it only says things like ‘SQUAWK, they just don’t appreciate my genius SQUAWK’ and ‘SQUAWK someday they’ll ALL PAY! SQUAWK?”
Salesman: “and this one over here is only 199.99.”
Parrot: “What’s wrong with this bird? Oh- Oh God! It’s EATING my FACE!! someone help! HELP ME! Why are you just watching this, you damned salesman!? Why!?!?

Salesman: Half off.
Actually, parrots can learn to associate words and phrases with objects and situations, or else this ability would have been completely useless just in communicating with one another in the wild. (Hell, even dogs can do that much, or they couldn’t learn their name or tricks.) African greys are especially good at this – look up “Alex the parrot” to see just how good.

The owner probably memorized that long smartass sentence as well.
Or used a teleprompter…
Or it was beamed to him tele-pathetic-ly.
Forever an asshole
