Every single one of those eggs was the loving product of a cock and a chick.
No they weren't.
Look, she may have never met him but you can't prove it isn't love. The first day a chicken learns what love is is the first day they start producing eggs. They lay until they truly believe Romeo may have been a liar and they lose their love. A tragic broken heart.
These eggs are unfertilised.
I don't think you'd like fertilised ones, to be honest. Although it is a delicacy in Asia.

We know they are unfertilized...
Well the guy above didn't.
He thought chickens have to have sex to be able to lay eggs.
So the Romeo and Juliet references and the discussion of the love life of a chicken must not have given away my sarcasm haha
It also appears FlyingSquid was making jokes as well. "It does for these eggs" was stated in the discussion by them.
It is probably hard for people to pick up in text but is a cultural colloquilism I would say. Like saying "Not with that attitude" to someone who says an individual can't throw a car over a fence with their bare hands.
This whole thing seems like people took his jokes to seriously and thought of them as trolling.
Sure, "it was a joke", but it also gave away your ignorance of basic biology.
.... I have lived on a dirt road and raised chickens without any roosters. Keep going on thinking you are better than others you don't understand, you sound like an ignorant asshole
Edit: Also in case you don't believe it still, here is an undedit response by me days ago in this post
It's okay to make mistakes.
No, I don't care about where you've lived or what you've done. You said "the first day a chicken learns what love is is the first day they start producing eggs."
Which is even weirder if you've raised chickens.
So the chicken eggs aren't usually fertilized part posted yesterday or what not wasn't enough to convince you I believed they weren't fertilized. Strange
I hope you are having a a great day friend. I was having a shit one earlier. Sorry for saying you sounded like an asshole before
So what did you mean by this, exactly?
We are discussing eating chickens and whether or not they were acceptable. So I made a joke about Romio and Juliet saying how a love starts and ends a production whether or not Romeo ever showed up. It wasnt a deep joke, just a reponse
Nah, you're actually now backpedaling because you didn't realise/remember and it makes no sense.
There's no joke in "the first day a girl has sex, she starts menstruating".
There was no joke. Nothing.
You just said dumb shit and you're too proud admit to that
Why do idiots always cover their moronicity with "no... I was joking"?
I have an actual answer: the people who aren't ashamed to go "oh whops, that's true, I'll correct that" actually end up learning things.
The irony. "I didn't understand something so the person who commented it must be wrong". You are saying I am in denial about something I posted explicitly 2 days ago and added in a screen shot. If you can't figure that out I'm afraid no one may be able to help you.
Then you're just absurdly bad at communicating, because there's no joke in your comment, and it clearly states "“the first day a chicken learns what love is is the first day they start producing eggs.”"
There's no "joke" in that, there's just the assumption that chickens do not lay eggs without fertilisation.
Hey it's okay you said something dumb online, just leave it man, why do you care?
Ehhhh no? You don’t need a rooster for chickens to lay eggs, AFAIK.
You need a rooster to fertilize the egg. An egg without a rooster is just chicken menstruation.
*ovulation
Releasing of an egg is ovulation. Menstruation is shedding of the lining of the uterus in mammals when pregnancy has not occurred.
It's a little pet peeve of mine when people refer to eggs as "chicken periods." I get a similar itch when people refer to anything in the crotch area of a female as a vagina lol.
Mad props. I was sure I had the words technically incorrect even if the point was right...thanks for the clarification!
You do for these eggs.
No you don't.
I know you live in Indiana. There are chicken farms near you. They shred 99.9999% of the males because they aren't needed for egg production. The roosters are only needed to fertilize the next generation of chickens, which roughly 50% of them will be immediately killed at birth.
Edit: ok you're trolling. I was wondering, cause normally you're more educated than that take is.
I wasn't trolling, I was joking. Cock and a chick? Terms for penis and woman?
Tough crowd in this thread, yeesh.
Eh. If every joke of mine was a success, I wouldn't have quit doing standup.
Save your new stuff for the second leg of the tour, that's what I say.
That or make sure they've got two for one at the bar.
This. Even if you do take everything seriously and use proper terminology, the far right will find a way to troll you. Don't let it shape your reality. Acknowledge them for the unproductive trolls they are and carry on with your business without a second thought.
I'm just amused that someone wants us to have legally accurate memes.
To be fair, when the right does this, they end up mocked on "The Right Can't Meme".
Just stop making us look like the moron you are lol
Sorry... you want me to stop making you look like a moron?
Ah a troll. Gotcha. Blocked lol
It's literally what you said. He is making you look like a moron by posting a meme lol
Lmao bro flyingsquid is like half of lemmy content. They're pretty intelligent. This is a meme, so they aren't taking things seriously
Thank you, that's very kind of you to say! I remember you posted a Some More News video on Leftism the other day about Dr. King, I'm guessing because of Black History Month. I hadn't watched it since it came out, so it was worth a re-watch. I should have thanked you for posting it in the community, but since I didn't, I'm thanking you for it now. :)
Yea of course! I always enjoy your posts lol so glad I could do the same.
You nailed it, I posted it for black history month since I missed the chance to post it on his birthday. Hopefully I'll have some more good stuff to post before the month ends!
