Some originals:

DR. FLOYD: What's that? Chicken?
JACK O'NEILL: Hypnosis. You know, I'm not a big fan of that bark like a chicken, cluck like a dog stuff.

Somewhere
Over the Highway
Chickens stride

Chicks stride over the highway
To get to the other side...

Someday I'll dodge a speeding car
And end up where the flock is far behind me...

Where bags of scratch are strewn about
And there's no big ax-wielding lout....

That's where you'll find me...

Somewhere
Over the highway
Chickens go

They're all crossing the highay
Why I will never know...

I find myself laughing uncontrollably to the point of tears at the flapjack-coiffed hare, which can only mean one thing... time for bed.

Default Chicken humor

I had a good laugh on this one.

I would like to add one or two:

What kind of chicken was it?

If it was a rooster, his reply:
I saw a hen on the other side

If it was a hen, her reply:
I saw a better place to lay my egg.

Ulkesh Naranek?!? I thought I knew just about everything to do with the TV series, including Kosh's last name, but I don't remember having ever heard of an Ulkesh. Is this from one/some of the books? Would that be the one who took Kosh's place and insisted on always being called Kosh?

Ulkesh was the Vorlon that replaced Kosh. He was also in the TV movie "In the Beginning." I believe he was named in one of the books, but I know jms mentioned his name in his usenet posts. Naranek is not actually a last name, but a title. Here are a few more jokes.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Kosh:
~Understanding is a three-edged sword.~

Lorien:
Why are you here? Where are you going?

Galen:
Whom do you serve and whom do you trust?

Schrodinger:
Until you observe the chicken, it is on both sides of the road.

Samurai Jack: We must respect the Way of the Chicken. (bows head)

Invader Zim: Grr! Blast that chicken!

Grr: "?"

Rocky: Holy smokes, Bullwinkle! That chicken could get hurt!

Bullwinkle: Hey Rocky! Watch me pull that chicken out of my hat!

Rick: Listen chicken; whether or not you make it across the road doesn't amount to a hill of scratch in this crazy world.

Han Solo: I could make it across the road in less than ten parsecs!

Kane: ......incubator......

Asimov: But first, Gentle Reader, we have to look at how the chicken can walk in the first place. The ancient Greeks.....

Good ones, mike!

One small revision:

[edit]
Actually that would have been "Hokey Smoke, Bullwinkle!" There's even a whole R&B website out there by that name.

Mr. Peabody: "Now, Sherman, set the WAYBAC for the year 10,000 BCE. We're going to see which came first, the chicken or the egg. There's a 50% chance that the question should be 'Why did the egg roll across the road?'."
Sherman: "Gee, Mr. Peabody, do you think it was because it was just a bad yolk?"
Mr. Peabody: "Enough of that, Sherman. Into the WAYBAC, boy!"
Sherman: "Yes, Mr. Peabody!"

I love the ads at the bottom of this forum. Three were for various types of on-line food stores (organic chicken, etc.) and one was for a bird vet. So when the chicken crossed the road it either gets hurt and goes to the vet or is lunch.

Or perhaps... If the vet is unable to help the poor fowl... well, I'll leave the rest to your imagination. :wink:

From Neon Genisis Evangelion:

Shinji: It crossed the road...because it wanted to...I guess...

Rei: Who are you and where are you going?

Asuka: What the hell has a chicken to do with anything?!

Gendo: Chickens are irrelevant. Roads are irrelevant.
