There were once two farmers who lived next door to each other. One day, a hen layed and egg directly on the border between the two farms. The two farmers weren't exactly friends, so they disputed who should get the egg.
"I know!" the first farmer said. "We'll do 'hits' for the egg."
"Hits?" the second farmer asked. "What's hits?"
"It's easy. I'll hit you first, then you'll hit me, and it will go back and forth until one of us gives in," the first farmer explained.
"Okay, sounds good," said the second farmer. "You go first."
The first farmer looked around and found a wooden plank on the ground. He took the plank and whacked the second farmer hard. The second farmer fell backwards, stunned by the blow. He slowly got up and said, "Okay, it's MY turn..."
"Keep the stupid egg," the first farmer said.
