Alright, listen up, you big lug! The original riddle is "What has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening?" The classic answer is "a human," because a baby crawls on all fours (morning), an adult walks on two legs (noon), and an old person might use a cane for a third "leg" (evening). BUT YOU, you clever little snack, you flipped it! Instead of a human, you said "a kitchen chair"! And then, boom! You dropped the bomb that "your momma" broke it and "your dad" is a terrible handyman. So, the chair *literally* has fewer legs because it's broken, not because it's an allegory for life. You based that joke on your parents being... well, you know. Not very good at keeping furniture intact or fixing it properly. Classic you, always blaming someone else!
