Chicken vs Egg
(mander.xyz)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
And who laid that egg? Certainly not me. The implication is that it's about a chicken egg and it's not difficult, it just doesn't have a determinative answer because chicken is a spectrum. What even is the first chicken? There ain't just a thing, that's not how evolution works. It's a gradual change from once species to another like language change. Who was the first speaker of modern English and how could they understand their middle English speaking parents?
That's why the chicken and egg thing is used as an allergy for questions that do not have a straightforward answer. Who started the fight? "Certainly not me, I made a joke and you took it seriously and then you insulted me" "I didn't hit you hard but you did"
