"Why did the chicken cross the road?" is perhaps the most famous of all jokes in the English language. The original punchline to the joke is: "To get to the other side." It is a Non-joke, in that its humor value comes from the fact that it is expected to be funny. Additionally, it is rarely told on its own, but instead is referenced, modified, or parodied in a number of other jokes.

Well, it just so happens that the egg was crossing the same road, at the exact same time, and the chicken wanted to find out, once and for all, which one of them would finally be able to claim, who had arrived there first....you see...
Oh, forget it....just give me my 10 points so I can get out of here!

At this moment there have been 465 questions about the chicken and the road.
Friendly suggestion: Why don't you do a "Search for Questions" (right under the "ask-answer-discover" bar) before you ask the same question for the umpteenth time?

2. Ethnomological
3. I forgot the last one!
