Pigs sleep and root in shit. That's a filthy animal.

No they don’t. They build latrines and that is their toilet which they certainly do not sleep in. They cover themselves in mud because it acts as sun block and helps against certain pests. The rooting is either to sort out the land or literally looking for roots, truffles and other things to eat.


We used to own chickens. They had no qualms about walking over their own poop, and getting it between their claws. They would peck through their own poop to look for food, getting it all over their beak. Their idea of a bath was covering themselves in dust.

Do you also forgo chicken?


I do, I’m vegetarian.

But my comment entirely missed the mark. It’s referencing the great Pulp Fiction scene.
