Hen Egg-Sized Hail, WTF?

Earlier today, the National Weather Service issued a severe thunderstorm warning that could potentially cause "hen egg-sized" hail. Apparently the National Weather Service thinks that everybody in Wisconsin is on a farm somewhere and standard comparisons such as coins and golf balls just won't cut it. For reference, a hen egg, commonly referred to as an "egg," is about as big as the stapler on my desk.
