Whenever I see these kind of posts, I wonder how many “dying pigs” I currently own.
How could you not know whether or not you own a squealing dying resurrectible pig?
Check whether or not your friends are amused and delighted. That should give you a hint.
The pigs are an anachronism. I just often wonder how many things I own today will be looked upon like this dying pig is.
anachronism? I think you mean analogy or metaphor.
a·nach·ro·nism: a thing belonging or appropriate to a period other than that in which it exists, especially a thing that is conspicuously old-fashioned.
