I could totally imagine a clothed pig sitting in front of a computer

[-] antonim@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 10 months ago

Literally me (to be fair I'm not always clothed).

A pig wearing a shirt and tie, but no pants.

Isn't there a very famous children's story about a pig that is more equal than the other pigs?

[-] aeshna_cyanea@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago

I wouldn't exactly call it a children's story

[-] devils_advocate@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

I think you could read it to children.

[-] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 10 months ago

You can read anything to children…

My school had me read it when I was a kid.

Four legs good

Two legs ~~bad~~ better

Am I missing the obvious sarcasm that is somehow not mentioned? as in this pig is an obvious CLASS TRAITOR for being a pig that sells parts of (presumably) other pigs?

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

It's allll beef, no pig :)

Does a muppet count?

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 13 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

+

Edit: huh, the '+' did do what i intended but didn't believe it would work.

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

You can't convince me the pig in the third pic isn't Winne the 🇨🇳 Pooh.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 11 points 10 months ago

Ah, the pig is preparing soylent oligarch-green, a most sustainable job, I applaud you, pig.

[-] protonslive@lemm.ee 10 points 10 months ago

A pig could sit in front of a computer in those books right? Right?!

[-] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 8 points 10 months ago

Now I'm imagining a pig wearing programming socks.

[-] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

How am I supposed to imagine a clothed pig splicing fiber cables or setting up a rack full of communications equipment with fiber patches. They don't even have opposable thumbs, how can they unplug an LC plug with its retention clip?

If my job isn't real I'm taking the internet down with me, then he can read his hand drawn memes to his neighbor.

[-] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Take the Internet. We'll be fine.

Don't worry guys, it's human meat so it's not weird.

The whole term sprung up when founding black panthers were studying police methodologies and found a precinct that used a pig as a mascot.

Dumb question: what is this illustration from? I recognize the art style, but can't place it.

I dare you to find a job that can't be portrayed like that.

Hacker Pig? sure!

Neo matrix Pig? Sure

Politician? Almost indistinguishable

Holywood Director Pig? Nearly by default

Slaughterhouse Pig... NGL, that hits different, but still, I can see that.

[-] Evotech@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I could see a dressed up og sitting in front of a computer. That's like the rest of the jobs

[-] galanthus@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

There is a job that can be represented without any clothes at all.

[-] zanyllama52@infosec.pub 3 points 10 months ago

Richard Scarry to the rescue
