¿Question #4855?
erli: Why does the early bird get the worm?

ocdspectrum: Worms are early risers.
Felimid: He gets up and going before rush hour starts.
Spirit of 70: Because he arrives before the other, later birds.
kathleenryan: I find this not to have been true on several occasions. I get to a place too early and they're not open yet, don't have what I want in stock yet, etc.
rgatti: Have you ever seen a worm with soft, moist flesh sunbathing? That subject is better covered in, "How to Eat Fried Worms."
vandemonium: The early bird is first on the scene because it used chloroform to help the other birds "sleep in."
Hendal: there first
xlorp: Humus hangover
scooterkdavis: because its up earliest moron
ZeroZilla: 'Cause worms don't sleep late enough for their own good.
Elf__Man: worms rise to the dewed surface in the early morning.
jeffwolfe: Um, the other birds haven't eaten it yet. Could you really not figure that out?

2amp: i don't know, but the second rat gets the cheese
DHEK: Because nobody has gone hunting for worms yet. So the early bird gets it.
Azzarc: Because there is none left for the late birds.
diemacher: To get to the other side
POvidiusNaso: Because he got there first.
Nonamnon: Because worms taste yucky.
paulgo: the Frosted Flakes were gone
scriptorum: Because all the other birds are sleeping, so there is a higher bird to worm ratio. (Making it more likely that the bird will get the worm.) I suppose the idiom should be the early bird has a higher probability of getting the worm, but that's just not as inspiring, now is it?
dragonewtking: Who cares? Let him have the damn worm
dmomo: Only the early worms.
jasta6: Worms are nocturnal creatures, it's the no eyes thing............................
jaycdu: less competition, like driving before morning rush-hour

vetinari7878: Because the worm gets up even earlier than the bird.
WatchmanX2000: The queue gets pretty long awfully fast.
renvhoek: He never went to sleep
Chris Page: Because anyone who wakes up first is crazy, and anyone that wants to eat worms is crazy, and I guess the two just go together.
cc_TheToph: Because he rejected the idea of playing with little brown disks called "colonists".
Loquutus: What does the early worm get?
CherryPie: First come first served - when they are gone they are gone...
bekudno: Because the late bird doesn't feel like opening the early bird to steal it.
River Blue: 'Cause those that sleep in get Captain Crunch.
skrutsch: I don't know. Those worms should sleep in.
puffinslayer: Obviously because he's a superior hunter.
bigbadsteve: Cause he is too stpuid to sleep in and wait for the pancakes
javelin98: Hey, I sure as heck don't want it. I think we should pity the bird for being reduced to scrounging for worms. This really needs some academic study and a welfare project supported by our local Socialists.
djlg: The worm hasn't had time for its morning coffee.
zadmando: I'm staying in bed, you can have the worm.

heli: in the games world, isn't that spelled 'wyrm'?
Spielfreak: Don't worms come out at night and then bury themselves back in the ground before sun up?
