I love overextended metaphors. Though I like to push the metaphor more slowly to it's eventual nonsensicalness.*

Re: Parroting [17 Aug 2011]
Answer: Economics professors do not care about the ability to teach retarded undergrads economics. Therefore the parrot would not get tenure; it would be hired as adjunct faculty. HIHO!Martin The Mess wrote:At my college, the Economics department had a pet parrot as a mascot. It was trained to reply to pretty much anything anyone said to it with "Awwk! Supply and Demand! Awwk!"
Given that "supply and demand" is pretty much your average Econ 101 prof's answer to any Econ-related question containing the word "why", I'm surprised the Parrot didn't have tenure.

RAAAAWK! This comic would have been far less funny w/o the "RAAAWK"... half the point is for every part of the parrot to be stereotypical except for the long winded parrot-related philosophical insights, amirite? RAAAAAWK?
