This is a confusing meme, because in the skit the parrot is dead when bought. It had been nailed to its perch to make it look alive and the seller told a series of funny lies. The bulk of the joke is how unreliable the pet shop clerk is.

In contrast, Twitter was obviously in bad shape (that’s why Musk was making a buy offer in the first place), the board was not interested in selling until he made a wildly over-value offer, and Musk immediately tried to back out of the sale and had to be forced to comply with the deal he’d made.

Because (like genAI) crypto-coin people as a general population will not shut up and it gets annoying to keep hearing the same spiel. And it’s an insulting one, about how everyone not on the Bitcoin train is a stupid loser and we’ll be kissing their ass and wishing we were them when the whole thing really rockets off. Sometimes that part isn’t entirely explicit, but I hear it in almost every pro-Bitcoin rant.
