Parrot tells firefighter to 'f*ck off' during rescue attempt

By Morgan Sung

This bird was not in the mood to be saved.

Jessie, a bright yellow and turquoise Macaw parrot, escaped her home in Edmonton, UK over the weekend and stranded herself on her neighbor's roof for three days. Concerned that she was injured, her owners called the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) for help. When the RSPCA was unsuccessful in coaxing Jessie down, the London Fire Brigade stepped in.

Jesse's owners told the firefighter to say "I love you" to try to bond with the bird and lure her back to safety. But when a firefighter trekked to the roof to tell her, Jessie started hurling expletives at him.

Watch manager Chris Swallow told Metro, "We then discovered that she had a bit of a foul mouth and kept swearing, much to our amusement."

Although Jessie responded with "I love you," she also told the firefighter to "fuck off." 


The Breast Tax or Mulakaram.

I was completely shocked to know about this disgusting part of history.

Women in Kerala used to pay a whooping sum of tax to cover their breasts, Those who were unable to pay, they kept their upper body naked.

This tax was imposed on the Shudras and Dalit’s to show this class their ‘AUKAT’

The breast was bared as a symbol of respect to higher-status people only. A society where men even stare at the cleavage, these women faced the oppression with naked breasts.

Torn Self respect, deteriorated confidence and the noxious stares eating the very pieces of diligence everyday.

Even the women who covered their breasts were not spared, the officers used to come and examine the size and weight of the taxpayer women with their own hands, utter disgrace.

Later, A women named Nangeli protested against this law by cutting off her breasts and presenting them in front of the officer, she died of blood loss, which eventually resulted in mega protests.

Finally, the heel piece law was removed, but only at the cost of a sacrifice.
