“Since we’re in this together, why don’t I move over to your side of the cage!”
The female canary replied, “No, thanks!!”
So he went back to his side but found he could stay there no longer.
Once again, he moved to her side of the cage. This time he asked,
“I am sorry I was too forward the first time. Why don’t we get to know each other first?”
To which she replied again, “No, thanks!”
Resigning himself to return to his side of the cage, he languished about for a bit then made one final effort.
He went halfway across the cage and stated,
“Well, could we at least talk?”
This time she replied,
“Oh, I am so sorry I have been so meant. You see I just learned I have a canary disease called, “Chirpies” and I hear it is untweetable.”
