Yesterday, I saw a commercial selling a fake plastic bird as the perfect pet. When you walk in the room, this fake bird looks at you and sings. What?? Selling point, the joy of having a bird without the work. Really??

I kept waiting for it to be some kind of joke set-up for Old Spice, Geico, somebody. Nope, it's real.

What kind of nut job would buy this thing? Wait, it would make the perfect company Christmas party gag gift for 'Dirty Santa.'

I don't know what's worse 'Big Mouth Billy Bass,' or 'Perfect Polly? Yah I do, Polly. What is going on here? Is Fantastic Fido next? I can hear it now, are you tired of Fido barking, you just flip the switch and he stops. You too can have a dog without the messy accidents on the floor.

Move over pet rocks, there's a new fake friend in town! Haha!

Your comments welcome below.

Take a look at the 'Perfect Polly' commercial:
