Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for September 30, 2012
Transcript:
Bucky: You're lookin' more confused than usual. Satchel: Rob just asked me which came first: the chicken or the egg? Bucky: What does he care? He's a leaf muncher. Satchel: Huh? Bucky: Anyway, the egg, clearly. Nobody eats chicken for breakfast. Satchel: Uhhhh... Bucky: Unless it was egg salad and the chicken wings were an appetizer. Satchel: I don't think it was a food related question... That's even easier, then, egg gots no foots, yo. Satchel: What if the chicken held the egg in from tot him as he walked? Bucky: With what? His wing fingers? Moron. Satchel: Uhh... Hm. Bucky: Unless you live downhill from the egg, then it could roll. But who rolled the egg? Satchel: Rob told me the answer was a "pair o' ducks." Bucky: Truly, that is a self contradictory statement. A riddle, if you will.

I heard that those pair o’ ducks was off causing trouble with time travel; how did they get involved with this chicken?

Why a duck? Why a no chicken?
R2-Wolf over 12 years ago
Maybe the chicken went back in time and became it’s own egg. Now there’s a pair o’ ducks for ya!

Classic double talk for this strip. What came first? The egg, obviously. The chicken is the same egg only older. What laid the egg? A bird remarkably similar to a chicken but not a chicken.

The chicken came first; it had to get laid before the egg could.

OK, fine, we’ve figured out the egg thing….Where’s the bacon come in…?

This strip gives me a headache every morning.

Wing fingers? That is still food related, if you ask me. And it sounds delicious. Moron.

animals have been reproducing with eggs for over half a billion years, chickens have existed for a paltry few hundred thousand, so the egg of course came WAY before the chicken.

If you say the chicken, you believe god created the chicken.
If you say the egg, you believe all organic creatures evolved, and we were all eggs for millions of years before we started to evolve into animal shapes.
So the egg came first for every living thing, and seeds for all plants.

Or maybe the Canucks? Eh?

The Buckster lives on a greatly elevated philosophical plane.

I don’t know, why a duck?

Eggs are not necessarily considered a breakfast food in Europe.

In my opinion, the chicken was created first, then it laid the first egg. (Of course this statement will open a whole can of worms). In my next opinion, this strip is the only one that I laugh all the way through, then I have to read it again because I missed some from the laughing.

“and one duck egg.”

You don’t get down off a duck. Ducks are so low to the ground. How do you get down off an elephant? A ladder.Man, this takes me back a looooonnnnnng time. Thanks for the mummeries.

I’m holding a pair of ducks, King high. Should I raise, or see?

The answer is the same regardless of what you believe. Evolution- Amoeba>Fish>Bird>Chicken>egg. Creation-Chicken>egg.

“Egg gots not foots, yo.” I love “Urban Bucky!”

If you have a gynecologist and an gastroenterologist – you have a pair o’ ducks

The egg came first. The bird that laid the first chicken egg was, by definition, not a chicken.

At first I though he meant that Rob saying that Chickens evolved from ducks, e.g. a pair o’ ducks laid an egg that hatched a chicken. But then I realized Satchel misunderstood “paradox.” In my defense, it’s really late, and I’m tired.
