The age-old chicken-egg debate gets utterly demolished by evolutionary biology. The meme shows a phylogenetic tree where eggs existed long before chickens evolved from their bird ancestors. Reptiles were laying eggs for hundreds of millions of years while chickens only showed up yesterday in geological time. It's like asking which came first: smartphones or electricity? The answer is painfully obvious to anyone who's taken Bio 101, but somehow remains humanity's favorite philosophical question. Next mystery to solve: why people keep asking this when the answer is right there in the fossil record.
