That’s fucking brilliant, and I would applaud out loud if it would do any good
God that’s good!
I’m pretty sure all those cuts are human so this is perfectly normal.
Who’s to say it’s not human?
Butcher by day. Loan shark by night. Don’t be late with your payments.
Well, pigs will eat anything, and anyone.
They’ll eat their own, in some circumstances, though it’s usually only going to be in bad conditions, or opportunistically. It’s extreme rare to see it happen among feral swine, though it does sometimes occur. But wild pigs will eat any dead critter they run across, even other pigs. It’s more rare that they’ll eat another pig they know. It does happen, but even if you live where the damn ferals are endemic, you might only see evidence of it a handful of times over decades.
So, out of all animals that you’d think of for kid’s stories, a pig is probably the most appropriate pick for a butcher. Maybe a cat or dog (though I think cats would just eat their business out of business, not wanting to share.) would fit.
The pig would say the same thing about humans
Which is a bit unfair. I’ve not butchered any pigs, and I’ve only ever eaten one or two humans!!
(My autocorrect switched butchered to buggered above. (Un)Luckily (?) I had time to proofread and catch it before posting.
Nazi pig: “Those pigs weren’t real pigs, they’re vermin that should all be butchered.”
What about Donald Duck? He’s eating a chicken.
Ducks and chickens aren’t the same animal. They’re both birds, but plenty of birds eat other birds from other species.
Well, I have never seen a duck eating meat, but it is just me, move on.
Ducks are omnivores. When they stick their heads underwater, they’re trying to catch prey like small fish.
Possible patron at my market stall:
Ooh, hey, are those chicken fingers, they look nice, how much?
Me, a human:
Ar-herhm, Uh yes! Chi… i-iiicken fingers yes!
Ff-f-finger lickin’ good!
I have this same thought every time I see the Gin Gins mascot
Oh, wow, wtf. Oh, wait it’s ginger. That is still deeply disturbing, but not quite so bad as the dirty bandages and scar tissue covered auto-cannibalising amputee that I saw at first glance.
He really loves his job.
Like humans, pigs eat (relatively) anything
