Origin of viral clip Unsplash: Ben Moreland\/TikTokTikTok has become obsessed with the \u2018why are chickens so funny\u2019 joke, but what\u2019s it all about? Here\u2019s what you need to know. Hundreds of thousands of videos are posted to TikTok each day, covering pretty much every corner of the internet and interest, but it\u2019s only a select few that go wildly viral. Things like the \u2018My Color Test\u2019, the \u2018Human Feeling quiz\u2019, and even the \u2018Reality Check\u2019 questions have popped up on pretty much everyone\u2019s For You page over the last year or so, but even they can\u2019t hold a candle to TikTok\u2019s newest obsession. It\u2019s not a wild, daring stunt or an introspective quiz, but rather a simple joke about chickens and why they\u2019re so funny. Yes, really. TikTok\u2019s why are chickens so funny joke It all stemmed from a clip that YeahTheGrays uploaded on January 5, which reached over 44 million views within less than 24 hours. In the video, a toddler is seen carrying a chicken before a female voice in the background tells them to tell their joke about the chickens. It\u2019s a simple one, with the toddler asking: \u201cWhy are chickens so funny?\u201d The answer, and punchline, is simply the toddler saying \u201cbecause\u201d in an elongated manner and sounding similar to a chicken clucking. This is what sends the female over the edge and breaks out into contagious laughter. The sound doesn\u2019t actually come from the new video but from a previous clip posted by Petcover on Instagram. That spawned plenty of reels over there, but they\u2019ve not quite taken off like TikTok\u2019s newest clip has. Either way, TikTokers are in love with the oh-so-simple joke. \u201cThis is the laugh I needed today,\u201d one commented. \u201cThis is the best thing I\u2019ve ever seen,\u201d added another. \u201cI burst out laughing harder than I expected,\u201d another said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
