Why is abbreviation such a long word?

Why is there a sell-by date on sour cream?

Why don't you ever hear about gruntled employees?

What is a free gift?  Aren't all gifts free?

Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?

Who needs rhetorical questions?

If women wear a pair of pants and a pair of glasses, why don't they wear a
pair of bras?

If a 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the
doors?

If love is blind, and God is love, and Stevie Wonder is blind, then does God
play the piano?

There was this quiet, conservative man who happened to own a parrot.
Unfortunately for the man, this parrot swore like a sailor. He would
swear for five minutes straight without repeating himself. This bird's
foul mouth was driving the man crazy. One day, it just got to be too
much.

The guy grabbed the bird by the neck, shook him really hard, and
yelled "QUIT IT!" But this just made the bird mad and he would start
swearing even more.

The guy finally got fed up and said, "OK for you" and locked the bird
in a kitchen cabinet. This only aggravated the parrot who contined to
claw and scratch the cabinet while he cursed even louder than before
with a stream of swearing that would make a sailor blush.

At that point the guy became so mad that he threw the parrot into the
freezer!

For the first few seconds the bird started swearing at words at the
top of his lungs

He kicked and clawed and thrashed all about the place. Then it
suddenly became VERY quiet. At first the guy just waited, but then he
started to think that the bird might be hurt.

After a couple of minutes of silence, he became so worried that he
opened the freezer door. The bird calmly climbed on the man's
out-stretched arm and said,

"Awfully sorry about all the trouble I gave you. I'll do my best to
improve my vocabulary from now on."

The man was astounded. He couldn't understand the transformation that
had come over the parrot.

Then the parrot said, "By the way, what did that poor chicken do ?
