  • Utes are pigs

    Looks like KW is blessed with an uncanny knack for imagery, simile and metaphor.

      I wonder if Whit can motivate his team again this season to be pigs?

      If not, do you think the Utes will be chickens? Or pancakes?

        I love that joke, especially when it is told in Sac Mtg.
        Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

        For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

        Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

          I referred to it in a meeting not long ago saying something like "it's like that hoary joke about the difference between the pig and the chicken's contribution to breakfast" and to my surprise everyone in the meeting insisted they had never heard the joke before. What could I do? I had to tell them. It got a BIG laugh. OF course, it was a church meeting.
          PLesa excuse the tpyos.

            that was first time I had heard it as well.....

            Was it an "Elder Nelson lame joke BIG laugh"? or a real big laugh?

              It was a lame joke big laugh (they all seem to think I am special, if you know what I mean) but I choose to think of it as a real laugh.

                That's a great analogy. The chicken lives again to contribute to breakfast tomorrow, but the pig gave his all for the moment. Definitely going to add that to my Relief Society repertoire.

                  What?!? you had never heard that before? This is killing me! It is a joke, not just an analogy. You people need to hear the joke. AT the next CUFfie award show I will present the joke as part of my opening monologue.

                  it involves the farm animals wanting to do something nice for the farmer, who is always feeding them, clearing their crap and so forth, and so the chicken comes up with the idea of making a really nice breakfast for the farmer., The cow gives milk, the chicken sacrifices an egg and the pig gives bacon or sausage. Everybody thinks it is a great idea except the pig, who then, in an unforgettably poignant soliloquy, makes the the difference between contribution and total commitment very clear. There is not a dry eye in the house.

                  Set up properly this is comedy gold; GOLD I tell you!

                    I had no idea it was a joke, either.

                    Why is it funny? I am being serious when I ask, as I love to break down jokes.

                    There is no irony in the joke. There is no surprise. There is no entendre or play on words. There is no satire.

                    What exactly makes it a joke?

                      until the animals take over and run the farmer off.

                            This is amazing to me. That old joke that has made the rounds several times. Very strange.

                            Except for the part where 3D doesn't get the joke.
