Fun:Not Serious Business

Why did the rational chicken cross the road?[edit]

To avoid multiplying entities beyond what is necessary.
To demonstrate its free will, unfettered by any chicken-imposed notions of religious morality.
To verify through empirical experience that the other side was cognitively meaningful.
To join a change in paradigms.
Because it decided to exist.
"Wait - how do we actually know that the chicken crossed the road?"
To change its frame of reference.
To avoid disturbing the crickets.
To get out of an infinite recursion.
Because the finite gain and infinite loss of this side was negligible when compared to the infinite gain and finite loss of the other side.
Because in the end it doesn't matter.
