dead parrot

A surreal dud, con or fraud.

Probably the most famous Monty Python sketch.
A customer returns to a pet shop where he was originally conned into buying a dead parrot.
Regardless of the extremes the customer goes to prove the parrot is dead (he even whacks the dead bird off a hard surface) the seller insists the parrot is as still as alive as it was previous.

Also known as the blue parrot sketch.

"There's no use trying to sell that car to me. It's as dead as a parrot."

to expecto patronum it up

Originating from the spell "expecto patronum", as used in the Harry Potter novels. Used by both wizards and witches to fend off Dementors with a white shield of positive energy.

I just thought of something: you and I are part penguin and part llama. However, you can only have one patronus. Which one of us would have which patronus?? Guess we'll have to expecto patronum it up when you get home.
