THE STORY OF THE PHOO BIRD

ONCE THERE WAS A MISSIONARY WHO DECIDED HE WAS GOING
TO CONVERT SOME NATIVES ON A SOUTH SEAS ISLAND.
WHEN HE GOT THERE, THEY WERE VERY FRIENDLY TO HIM.
SUDDENLY, THEY BEGAN TO BOW AND SCRAPE IN THE SAND.
THEY WERE YELLING AND MOANING, "OH, MIGHTY PHOO BIRD,
HAVE MERCY ON US. YOU ARE OUR GOD." SURE ENOUGH,
THERE WAS A LARGE BIRD CIRCLING OVERHEAD. SUDDENLY,
THE BIRD SWOOPED DOWN AND SHIT ALL OVER THE MISSIONARY.
THE NATIVES BEGAN TO LAUGH AND CLAP. THEY TOLD HIM
THAT THE PHOO BIRD HAD GIVEN HIM THE SIGN OF FAVOR
AND THAT HE SHOULD WEAR IT ALWAYS WITH PRIDE. THE
MISSIONARY WAS MAD AND TOLD THEM THAT HE WAS GOING TO
THE BEACH TO WASH IT OFF. BUT THEY SAID, "NO, NO.
YOU CAN'T DO THAT. YOU WILL DIE IF YOU DO."
THE MISSIONARY DIDN'T LISTEN TO THE, BUT WENT RIGHT
DOWN TO THE BEACH AND INTO THE WATER. WHEN HE CAME
OUT OF THE WATER, HE DROPPED DEAD ON THE BEACH.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE MORAL OF THIS STORY IS?
IF THE PHOO SHITS, WEAR IT.
