Somebody get that guy a parrot, stat.



If he said anything different, everyone would be chastizing him for flip-flopping - but when he stands his ground - we need to get him a parrot?

At least he's consistent.


You seem to be implying that the parent comment was an insult. RMS said he wanted a parrot:

> No. I spend most of my time travelling, so I could not have any pets.

> If it were possible, I would like to have a friendly parrot.


The comment was referring to Stallman's statement that if he did not travel and could care for a pet, he would get a parrot. It was not derogatory.
