A game often played by sub-contractors in the aerospace industry who are working on intricate, time critical and interdependent parts of a significant development programme. Despite knowing they are unable to meet a delivery date they do not declare this knowledge to the customer in the hope that another sub-contractor is experiencing similar problems and will announce their own delay first, thus allowing them to push back their delivery whilst avoiding potential contractual penalties for a delay in schedule.
"I know we cannot possibly deliver our satellite for Q3 next year, but trust me, if we play launch chicken with the other sub-contractors one of them will crack before we do and delay the programme."

Get the Launch Chickenmug. An unholy meal universally hated by all. Disgust towards the vile concoction transcends all race, sex and religion.
Regarded as the meal of the Devil, ancient religious texts have quoted apricot chicken as the meal served to those in hell.

Get the chicken fairiesmug. The unpredictably random adult swim TV series created by Seth Green and Matthew Senreich for people with minor to severe cases of ADD. Animators use stop motion animation with toys (action figures, dolls, and claymation for special effects) to form the visual aspect of the show, and many special appearances of celebrities voicing themselves have been made including Stan Lee, Hulk Hogan, Snoop Dogg, Kelly Hu, Scarlett Johansonn, George Lucas, and Mark Hamill
Pirate 1: (has a helm wheel on the front of his pants)
Pirate 2: Arr! What's that steering wheel be for?
Pirate 1: Arrrr, it's driving me nuts!
Mad Scientist: *holding up a sign that reads* "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
Robot Chicken: *holds up a sign that reads* "Bawk?"
Mad Scientist: *holds up a sign that reads* "To die in the name of science!"
*pulls out a butcher knife and chases the chicken*
You really have to see a few episodes to get the idea
