More from the Best of the Internet Oracle. Some background for people not familiar with the Oracle: you can ask the Internet Oracle anything you like, but the one question you're NEVER supposed to ask is "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?" However, people are always trying to find clever ways around that...

The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply.
Your question was:

48 6F 77 20 6D 75 63 68 20 77 6F 6F 64 20 77 6F 75 6C 64 20 61 20 77 6F 6F 64 63 68 75 63 6B 20 63 68 75 63 6B 20 69 66 20 61 20 77 6F 6F 64 63 68 75 63 6B 20 63 6F 75 6C 64 20 63 68 75 63 6B 20 77 6F 6F 64 3F

How bizarre, how perplexing
more mysterious than chicken sexing
why you thought that simple hexing
would keep this question from being vexing?

No doubt now you'll think it merry
to ask again the dreaded query
Which incarnation will the burden carry
Should you send it as binary?

1011010 1001111 1010100 100001

Your feet upon a desperate road
In danger of being made a toad
Yet still the Oracle you goad
Good gods, what's next-- morse code?

--..----!

Until ambition over keen
Pushes you to the last extreme
Hunched over the keyboard, mad and mean
You ask the question in rot13

MBG!

The moral:
No matter if you're feeling puckish
And tempted to push your luckish
And even risk an answer suckish
Don't ask questions that are w**dchuckish.
