[This is the best damn chicken game ever.](http://www.poulagachallenge.com/) Unless you’re a chicken. In which case, they pretty much all suck. 🙂 ---

I know it! Someone introduced me to that site while I was at work… and then no more work happened today. More than likely, no work will happen tomorrow either. Cluck. ---

And here I thought I was just watching tiny spots disappearing. Now I can waste time whilst I’m waiting to waste time. 🙂 ---

Heh-heh. For a moment there, it looked like the Straight Dope was taking over the site, what with all the Dopers playing. 🙂 ---

Man, I suck at that. It took me five games before I could even catch the chicken more than once. Clearly, I’m no chicken tosser. ---

But Good God! In that game you can be a pig. And you can throw a chicken! Surely, there is nothing funnier than those two animals having at it. ---

OK. I will admit I’m clueless. But what is the point of this game? ---

To win at chicken-pong. 🙂 In the real world, however, the point is to waste time. Or, at least that’s what I was doing earlier today. ---

The rules say that you have to win by two points (unless one of you reaches 12 first), and you have to have a minimum of 4 points, total. Earlier today I lost a round with a score of 11. Some bastard beat me out by a point. _A point!_ I’m telling ya’, this is almost better than Counter-Strike. Or Pac-Man. But maybe not Pac-Man. 😉 ---
