I hope the farmer wasn’t Muslim. Muslims in case you didn’t know are forbidden by their religion to be eaten by pigs.

Watched a piggy tug-of-war over a snake once, snake didn’t last very long.

My grandpa used to raise pigs, they weren’t treated particularly mean or anything, but a boar had him trapped once and that never happened again. We grandkids were warned to stay far from the adult pigs. The piglets were adorable.

They make quick work of it, it seems. “Eat like a pig”....now we know!

Why won’t he let you use dogs? Around here they are shooting them from helicopters. That seems to be more efficient in thinning the herds but they still have huge litters to replace the killed.

Draft those hogs for duty in Gitmo.

Had a neighbor that fed his dead chickens.

At first I read "he fed his dead chickens" as if he fed chickens that were dead. :)

Pit pig ping.

I had a girlfriend that did that once.

I love bacon but I’ve lays hated working with hogs.

If my cat was a little bigger, he would kill me and eat me. I can see it in his eyes, but he disguises it with his purring

Yes, it can be scary.

I don’t wake up at any set time and it is a little ‘unnerving’ to look down and see a cat on either side of the bed, staring at you. Now you know they are waiting to be fed, but (I am at the age) I often wonder how ‘hungry’ the cat has to get to make ‘you’ the main course? And how long will they sit there to determine you have assumed room temperature. Of course, if you are still alive, the first bite or so would (should) waken you BUT what if you are paralyzed?

Oh, sorry....you thought my story wasn’t a metaphor?

Clone.

Drop in Middle East.

Repeat.

Cry Havoc! and let slip the HOGs of War.

Go Tuskers!

The CO? His name's Ziffel. Arnold Ziffel. He saved my bacon more than once. Just keep your nose clean and no squealing, got me?

I refer you to post 95 of 97.

Yessir there is! What an apt picture of the state of our nation where those being fed turn viciously on those doing the feeding...
