Daily Joke: The Parrot and the Missing Money A Clever Tale of Mystery and Wit

A man walks into a pet store looking to buy a new parrot. He sees three birds sitting on a perch, each wearing a little sign around their necks.

The first one has a sign that says, “Talks but doesn’t think.”

The second one’s sign reads, “Thinks but doesn’t talk.”

And the third one proudly declares, “I’m special—I can both think and talk!”

Intrigued, the man asks the shopkeeper, “What makes the third parrot so special?”

The shopkeeper replies, “Well, he used to work at a bank.”

The man decides to test this claim. He points at random objects in the room and asks, “What’s that?”

The parrot squawks confidently, “That’s a chair!”

“What about that?”

“That’s a clock!”

Impressed, the man buys the parrot and takes him home.

The next morning, the man wakes up to find his wallet is missing. Furious, he storms downstairs where the parrot is perched innocently by an open drawer.

“Did you take my money?” the man demands.

“No,” says the parrot coolly. “But I know who did.”

The man gasps. “Who?!”

The parrot smirks. “It was your wife. She came down last night while you were asleep and took $200 out of your wallet.”

Stunned, the man confronts his wife later that day. After some back-and-forth, she admits she borrowed the cash but only because she needed it for groceries. Relieved but still curious, the man goes back to the parrot.

“How did you know all that?” he asks.

The parrot shrugs. “Oh, I didn’t. But now we do.”
