The Chicken and the Egg Debate
Dad: “You know, this whole chicken and egg debate has been bothering me for years.”
Son: “What’s the issue, dad?”
Dad: “Well, people always say, ‘Which came first, the chicken or the egg?’ but no one ever asks, ‘Why were they both in the same place at the same time?’”
Son: “Uh, I don’t think that’s the point.”
Dad: “But think about it! What if the chicken and the egg were just minding their own business at a party, and then someone came up with this question about who arrived first? It’s like someone asking, ‘Did you put the coffee in the mug before or after you made it?’ Makes you wonder what they were up to before it all started.”
Son: “Dad, I think you’ve officially lost me.”
Dad: “Well, I guess I’ll be waiting for the next big philosophical breakthrough, like whether it’s the sandwich or the bread that’s more important.”
