Depressingly, it's the egg.
We know that Dinosaurs laid eggs - you can buy them on ebay[^] - and chickens (as we know them, they evolved from jungle fowl after domestication) have only been around for between 12,000 and 6,000 years.
So the egg came first. And then rolled over and had a cigarette, probably.

Or is that what the chicken wants us to believe?

Actually, the questions easily answer based upon whether your a religious zealot and scientific dogmatist (or is it religious dogmatist and scientific zealot?).
Religious: Chicken came first as it was created.
Scientific: Egg came first. It wasn't laid by a chicken but by something very much like one.
Not a big deal question . . . so long as you take sides.

I think today have not any special things. I still don't make something with C++ yet. I am learning C++. I hope tomorrow will change.

If I were you, I'd be chicken to post that reply.

Every day has special things. The trick is to spot them, to recognise them, and to appreciate them for what they are.
This gets easier as you get older, as the first special thing you tend to notice then is "I'm not dead yet!"

I've been trying to teach some chickens to swim. Swim in very hot water. Hot water with onions, carrots, beans and pasta.
Okay, I made chicken soup.

Simple to do once you realize that "There is no road"

Actually, in a better chicken world, the chickens, by natural selection (we are running over the slow ones, right?), will be able to stop the car (as will armadillos).

Well, the armadillos are already bullet-proof.

Well, if they aren't by now, they will be. Most of the south west US seems to be selecting toward either faster armadillos, or better armor. I dread the day when fast armored armadillos crash through walls like rolling cannonballs.

Why would that make that world "better"?
[Edit] Oh, I see - if we no longer got these stupid jokes, indeed that would be a better world...ok, count me in.

Well, OK, I have to ask: WTE is this all about ? I see this post now and then, and still haven't figured out what it is.
Maybe that's part of the trip. Well, let's report it a abusive spam, just to be sure.

One word or phrase leads to the next; you could circle the standalone words/phrases, and they would intersect with the next ones.
