Many famous philosophical conundrums employ fowl in their symbology.
For example:
The chicken and the egg -- which came first?
If a rooster lays his egg on the exact center of the roof, does it balance?
By my reckoning, there's one that's been overlooked for an embarrassing while too long. It's typically used in the same context where you would point to someone's shirt then flick their nose.
Truly a forgotten perplexion, this question has brought kindergartners and teenagers to tears, surely as a result of their inevitable failure to fathom all its implications.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
I'd say it's high time we pay it its dues and induct it into this hall of fame... of sorts.

Or is it perhaps too soon?
I can't help myself but notice that the other two examples involve an egg just as well as a chicken.
