In the years leading up to 2022, Melvin Capital made bets against key stocks within the USA stock market, after retail investors noticed inconsistencies with the stock, specifically the huge short position that Hedge Funds (including Melvin Capital) had accrued. Retail traders realized that these positions would at some stage need to be bought back so they independently decided to buy up the stock.
Melvin Capital essentially went bankrupt due to some very poor decision making and lack of proper risk management.
The phrase "you did a melvin" was coined in 2022 to indicate that your lost money, or made bad decisions which affected you negatively.

Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road is a very old joke, The joke appeared during a 1847 of The Knickerbocker, Which is a New York monthly magazine
There are many types of the joke, such as:
"Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the idiot's house. ...Knock-knock." ("Who's there?") "The chicken."
"Why did the chicken cross the playground? To get to the other slide."
"Why did the chewing gum cross the road? It was stuck to the chicken's foot."
"Why did the whale cross the ocean? To get to the other tide."
"Why did the dinosaur cross the road? Chickens didn't exist yet."
"Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side."
A mathematical version asks, "Why did the chicken cross the Möbius strip? To get to the same side." (I took all this shit from wikipedia lol)

Johnathan: "Hey, I got a joke."
Brook: "Spit it out dude."
Johnathan: "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
Brook: "Johnathan, You said this joke about 76 times, The answer is to get to the other side, Dude your so lame."
Johnathan: ":("
