A colorful tropical parrot, usually drawn in red and green plumage, perched with its head turned to one side. Pirate jokes lean on it hard, a parrot on the shoulder being the whole costume, and "parroting" someone, repeating their words back without adding anything of your own, gets a nod from it too.
What ðĶ means
A full-body profile of a parrot with gorgeous shades of lime green, yellow and red across the body, two short green legs, claws, and a hooked greenish beak with black and reddish eyes.
The ðĶ Parrot emoji refers to a yellow-headed amazon. However, it can be used to suggest other species of parrots and parakeets as well. It signifies intellect, imitation, a great life span, vibrance (although some aren't exotically colored, all are beautiful), and a nurtured 'gift of the gab'.
How and when to use it
- If someone decided to mess with you by annoyingly repeating everything you're texting, you can use ðĶ to tell them to STFU, or you can also save their contact with this emoji, given their annoying sense of playfulness.
- Parrots are known for their spice tolerance. So, if you or someone you know loves spice more than any other flavor, you can use ðĶ to refer to that person. If it's you, you can use this emoji in your social media profile name too.
- If you're a bird lover and/or you closely work with these beautiful species on a daily basis, you can use ðĶ in your social media profile name too.
- Although not monogamous, parrots usually match their mates with their physical features. So, if you know a couple or you and your S.O is that couple who strangely look like each other, you can use ðĶ in those contexts. For instance, "Happy anniversary, you two! ðĶ ðĶ May you continue to scarily look like each other xD Cheers!" (and ignore the monogamy part, them parrots are immoral).
