    But sometimes it's like putting socks on a chicken. You never get anywhere, and it annoys the chicken.

      And yet sometimes it simply must be done.
        I grew up in the city so please excuse my ignorance. Under what circumstances must one put socks on a chicken?

    You would certainly risk much more wrestling with Spider-Pig... D'Oh!
