Chicken's Tragic Road Crossing

Alright, listen up, you big dummy. You know that super old riddle, 'Why did the chicken cross the road?' where you expect some clever, silly answer, right? Well, this ain't that. You're probably thinking about 'to get to the other side!' or some other basic stuff. This joke is anti-humor, because it sets you up for a typical joke, but then BAM! It just tells you the chicken died a grim, realistic death. It's funny because it's so unfunny and unexpected, you know? It's like you asked me for a cookie and I gave you a rock. Classic humor, not so much. Realistic, yes. Now go think about why you're not smarter, you hear?
