To ask the chicken why it had crossed the road, in order to answer that in GQ.
They only did it once. Took 20 minutes, though.
To find an answer to your question.
To paraphrase Sir Issac Newton, Dopers at rest tend to stay at rest. Dopers in motion tend to cross roads.
I hope that clears thins up.
To fix the grammar in someone else’s post. 
I meant to do that. 
Hey, I crossed the road, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t have. Take some responsibility, assholes.
Some people want the other side of the road handed to them on silver platters.
He didn’t cross the road, Ed Zotti did.

Most likely is that someone on this side of the road needed assistance with changing a light bulb, but as they had no idea how to go about doing that and didn’t want to help, they simply bailed on helping that person and walked over to the other side where there was something new and more shiny.

Crossing roads is bullshit. There are maybe a dozen people in the world that think it’s a good idea to cross a road, and they all post here. And then they whine about it.
Judging by a lot of the posts on this board, probably to avoid a really horrible family member.
Or maybe to get 14 k of g in a f p d.
