* ''Bertie Blunt (His Parrot's a Cunt)'' in ''{{Viz}}''.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbRS9K4rZ8Y This video]] shows a crow walk up to a man and simply says "Fuck you" to him. It earns a good laugh from the guy.

* ''Series/NYPDBlue'' had the PointyHairedBoss bring in an obnoxious parrot that repeated everybody. Sipowicz forces the boss to get rid of it by a simple trick: he plants a tape recording of somebody shouting "Douchebag! Douchebag!" in the parrot's room overnight. You can watch it [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BOp_uktAx0 here.]]

* Kiki the cockatiel in EnidBlyton's "Adventure" series, although being a children's series this takes the form of shouting obnoxious quotes rather than swearing per se.

* In one of Betty MacDonald's ''Literature/MrsPiggleWiggle'' stories, little girls who sass their parents and teachers have to deal with a parrot who says all those rude, ugly things. Not quite swearing, but still unacceptable; the girls learn how nasty they sound.

* A CutSong from Creator/WaltDisney's adaptation of ''Disney/101Dalmations'' was a number that [[ThoseTwoBadGuys Horace and Jasper]] would sing [[DrunkenSong while drunk]] called "Don't Buy a Parrot from a Sailor" (because "all them birds say embarrassin' words").

* In the NordicNoir ''Series/{{Backstrom}}'' police novels by Leif G.W. Persson, there is the abominable Bäckström's ill-fated attempt to keep a pet. He amuses himself by teaching the parrot some choice items of demotic Swedish. Unfortunately [[SinisterSchnoz Isaak the large-beaked parrot]] conflates the phrases ''Bäckström is a sex god'' and ''{{[=insert name of senior policeman of choice here=]}} is a pouf'' and learns to incessantly recite ''Bäckström is a great big pouf!''. And, as Isaak is a fast learner, many others. When fobbed off on a neighbour's son, the child takes the parrot to school for Show And Tell, where its impressive vocabulary causes a scene.

* ''WebVideo/SuperMarioLogan'': In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFvwW7_MWzI "Bowser's Parrot!"]] the titular bird just won't stop repeating "Bowser's a retard!" thanks to Junior. HilarityEnsues.

* ''Manga/BlackLagoon''. There's a parrot outside the [[CorruptChurch Ripoff Church]], which repeats Revy's insults as she hammers on the door.
-->"Hello! Open the door, you old skank!"

-->"IllKillYou! You're not getting away! Die, you bastard!"

* One of Ralf König's comics featured a parrot whose prior owner spent all his free time watching porn. The parrot had an understandably difficult time finding a new owner.

* ''Bertie Blunt (His Parrot's A Cunt)'' in ''{{Viz}}''.

*** A variation on this one is the parrot is owned by a beautiful woman. The parrot says "nice tits, baby" while she's undressing, so she shoves him in the freezer to punish him. When she lets him out, the parrot says "What did the turkey do, ask for a blowjob?"

** A variant has the parrot say, "Jesus is watching you." Guess what the dog's name is?

* A G-rated version appears in the ''{{Literature/Fudge}}'' books. Fudge is very proud of his myna bird, Uncle Feather, who can speak French. Any time someone addresses the bird he responds by saying, "Bonjour, Stupid."

* On ''MyNameIsEarl'', Darnell revealed that back in the day [[spoiler: before he got put into WitnessProtection]], he shared an apartment with a man who was a porn star. [[spoiler: He is now married to the governor of [[WhereTheHellIsSpringfield whatever state Camden is located in]], and she got him a job as the warden of the state prison.]] A porn movie was being filmed in the apartment just as Darnell returned. He was OK with that, but asked if he could put a cloth over Mr. Parrot's cage.

* [[http://www.johnhartstudios.com/ckennel/strips/2009/june/CK_06_19_09jkl.gif This]] ''ComicStrip/DogsOfCKennel'' strip had Wheeler the bird introducing his parrot friend to Will, only for the parrot to do some SymbolSwearing, implying that Will had already met the parrot.

* The VideoGame/{{Pokemon}} Chatot has an exclusive move called Chatter, which can be used in conjunction with the microphone of the Nintendo [=DS=] and later models to have it say something that the player records. When combined with VideoGamePerversityPotential, well...

* In the {{Spellsinger}} novel ''Time of the Transference'', a couple of drug runners mistake the talking, intelligent PirateParrot Kamaulk (that is to say, he's a parrot who's a pirate) for this trope. They attempt to sell him to a Los Vegas casino but fail to realize that he's smart enough to open a car door, at which point he escapes. And is promptly eaten by some street bums who mistake him for an oddly green chicken.

And is promptly eaten by some street bums who mistake him for an oddly green chicken.

Sure enough, he breaks into the house, and he sees the parrot on it's perch. The parrot looks at him and shouts "Brutus is gonna fuck you up, you bastard. Brutus is gonna fuck you up!" the thief ignores him and starts going through the dressers.\\

* One sketch on ''Series/TheBennyHillShow'' features a woman pulling the cover off of a birdcage with a parrot inside. The parrot quickly begins mildly cursing as the woman notices her priest coming over to her flat. She quickly pulls the cover back over the birdcage and invites the priest in... just in time for the parrot to exclaim, "Bloody hell! What a short day that was!"

** As a sign of the WretchedHive Rock's found himself in, a talking bird is shown squawking various death threats.

* President UsefulNotes/AndrewJackson's parrot had to be removed from his funeral because it wouldn't stop swearing. [[BilingualBonus In two different languages, no less]].
