I'm gonna lie to my kids and tell them this is the plot of Orwell's Animal Farm.

The cloaca or vent is the last passage through which the egg travels out of the body. It is also the passage for fecal matter at the end of the digestive tract to be expelled outside the body of the hen.

Hens might have invented enshittification before marketing did. Literally.

Hold up. A chicken’s lungs are on its back?

Throw in a pair of black Speedos with a flame design on the sides for extra underwater speed and you've got yourself a deal, buddy!

I will never be able to look at chickens the same

They have a cunning plan regarding the humans...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

With suitable prodding, you can get surprisingly great speed out of a chicken, the problem is that guidance is all over the place.

printing and laser etching on egg shells are already a thing. so ads on eggs could very well become a thing, too.. especially if putting production codes or dates directly on them becomes required somewhere--if you're gonna run 'em all through the 'printer' might as well get paid to do it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

But eggs are already stamped with production location routinely where I live for decades, no ads yet

Ads on eggs

Don't give them any ideas, this sounds like it just might be doable and they may seriously consider it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Its pretty considerable ngl. Eggs have blank shells. Advertizing has no limits!

Dropshipping

Invest in AI and automate egg production, so they can fire half the chickens and con investors for more money

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I'll sell you this NFT, so that you and only you can own this egg forever!

How about in egg egg satisfaction surveys?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Well they certainly can’t go down to the summit!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Do your worst, I don't even eat eggs.

[–] pastermil 1 points 1 day ago

I guess you got rent to pay.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

You might be able to charge more for the eggs if you feed them to a civet cat first and then collect the egg laden civet cat shit and sell that as some kind of delicacy.

When you break the egg an ad jingle plays for Eggbeaters
