text: One such story relates to the meaning of the word chicken as a cowardly person. As the story goes, the town of Shiprock, New Mexico had problems relating to poverty. Some of the poor children would get drunk and cross the road in order to show their bravery. Many times, this resulted in serious injury because of oncoming traffic, and sometimes even death. Knowing that the injured/dead person was a coward (chicken), people asked each other "Why did the chicken cross the road?" The original answer to this question was then "Because he was drunk." [1]
This makes no sense for the following reasons:
#If people crossed the road while drunk "to show their bravery", then someone who unsuccessfully crossed the road while drunk would not normally be considered a coward (chicken). By that standard, the people who would be considered cowards would be those who refused to attempt crossing the road, not those who tried to do so but failed.
#Shiprock, New Mexico currently has a population less than 9,000 people. The joke as we know it today was already known, and probably old, by 1915 (as indicated by the Writing for Vaudeville text cited in the article). According to the U.S. Census, the population of Shiprock in 1910 was only 179. U.S. Census (see p. 9) How much motor vehicle traffic could there have been in Shiprock, New Mexico, in 1915? My guess would be "not much". There were only about 2.5 million registered motor vehicles in the United States in 1915  for a population of about 100 million , so if this rural town on an Indian reservation kept up with the national car ownership rate (unlikely in itself), it would have had about 5 motor vehicles in 1915. In other words, crossing the road in Shiprock in 1915 was probably very unlike trying to walk across the Autobahn or the Santa Monica Freeway today. 
#The source given is a Hindi-language edition of Reader's Digest; surely there would be a source more local to Shiprock if the story were authentic.
It's possible that "... Because he was drunk" was created in later years as a sardonic version of the original non-joke, but it would then just be a non-notable variation of the original "... To get to the other side", not the origin of the original joke which is what we are looking for. --Metropolitan90 19:48, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: While with the 1905 claim of origin, I am myself now unsure if RD reported it correctly and so wouldn't oppose if this said origin is removed. But per say, I don't see any logical inconsistancy with the RD claim. The children in question were considered chicken (coward) in real life by their friends. So it would be natural to ask why they crossed the road. Expanding the quote for your understanding, we have: "Why did the person (who is a chicken in real life) tried to cross the road?". The answer would be "Although the person is a coward, he tried to cross the road as he was drunk". (Note: The expanded quotes were not reported and I made them up for your understanding).

Your explanation does answer my first objection, but I still tend to think that at most the Shiprock story was a version of the existing classic riddle, rather than the originator of the joke, due to the fact that the joke can be dated to a time before there was any significant motor traffic in Shiprock. Do you have the Reader's Digest article available to you to confirm exactly what the article says?

text: Interesting, because I always interpreted the joke as a pun on the word "cross," since to cross something also has the meaning to curse at something.

thread_title:  Puns 

message: I am surprised at the explanations in the article and in the thread here-above. Anyone who has some experience with chickens running loose near a road will eventually notice that when a car approaches they tend to first sit and wait at the side of the road and then start running across at the worst possible moment. Loads of chickens get killed that way (I once flattened one on a motorbike in Thailand). So people all over the world will have wondered about this and asked the question. Some of those who didn't come up with the obvious answer (it's some sort of flight behaviour that doesn't work with the speed of cars) will have come up with this funny answer (to get to the other side). So the question is not really meant as a joke. The answer is, though. I don't have any sources for this, though. It just makes a lot of sense to me. DirkvdM 07:37, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I haven't read the discussion completely, but my take on the joke is:
The "chicken" is a cowardly person and the "other side" is the post death.  Hence the cowardly person is committing suicide as an easy means to get to the after life. This may just be over analysis like when one stares at a blank canvas in a modern art museum; there's really nothing there. ~ Justin Ormont (talk) 10:31, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Lots of punchlines make the joke actually funny, but given sources suggest that the riddle was originally intended as a type of nonsensical anti-humor. The 1847 magazine article says "There are 'quips and quillets' which seem actual conundrums, but yet are none.", not "there is a quip that seems like a conundrum, but which is actually a clever joke about the afterlife". --McGeddon (talk) 10:14, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Another take 

message: After citing the 1847 version of the joke, the article currently states "In this context it seems most likely that the joke was of dark humor..." but this seems to me entirely at odds with the text quoted, which says "There are 'quips and quillets' which seem actual conundrums, but yet are none." That seems pretty clearly to be saying "there is no good reason for the answer to this, it's just a silly quip".
The phrase "seems most likely" seems rather like an opinion with no very good backing - I'd hesitate to call it "Original Research", but it certainly seems a jump from "possible" to "most likely" based on the evidence given. - IMSoP (talk) 03:36, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but this seems like clear original research - the joke dates to the 1840s, and "crossing the road" would hardly have been regarded as a method of suicide fifty years before the invention of the car.
