Animals and Miscellaneous: Bad pig!

Bad pig!

By otter - 17/08/2011 02:05 - United States

Today, my potbellied pig ate my neighbor's award-winning flower garden, that she has been growing for almost three years. She'd told me that she was bringing the judges of the competition, in which she was in line to win $300, to her house in two days. I have yet to tell her. FML

Today, my mum asked me how the guinea pig was doing. We don't have a guinea pig. Turns out she had volunteered me to look after the next door neighbor's guinea pig when they were away and 'forgot' to tell me. They have been gone two weeks. FML

Today, I agreed to buy my girlfriend a piggle for Christmas. The pig is miniature. The noise it makes is not. Oh, and I just found out it's not living with her, but with me. FML

Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML

Today, after 2 weeks of hard work in the heat planting a garden, just as I thought the most stressful part was over, my wife's mother comes over and brings a huge dog. She then threw a tennis ball for the dog into my freshly seeded garden multiple times, completely destroying most of it. FML

Today, I learnt that my guinea pig can shoot poop across the room like a tiny brown torpedo. How did I find this out? It landed in my coffee. It wasn't until after I'd finished my coffee that I noticed it. FML

Today, my sister presented me with an "official pet killer" award after yet another goldfish under my care died of unknown causes. FML

Today, my old neighbor pelted me with apples when I walked out the door. I ducked for cover and asked what her problem was. She yelled, "You took fresh peas from my garden!" I looked at her garden, only to see my dad tiptoeing back to our lawn, laughing and holding a bag full of peas. FML

Today, it's been a few weeks since I took up gardening to relax, caring for my plants, and they finally started blooming. Excitedly, I posted a picture online, only to have a friend tell me that my "beautiful flowers" are actually weeds. Apparently, I have a talent for cultivating the unwanted. FML

Today, a bear dragged my neighbor's garbage across the street and stopped right in the middle of my front yard, where it proceeded to scatter the contents and have a feast. When it was finished, it took a massive dump on my lawn. FML

Today, my neighbor came over to borrow my lawnmower. As I have previously loaned it to him and he returned it broken, I refused. He then promptly ate the strawberries off my daughter's small strawberry plant and stormed off. FML

You're am idiot but it IS only $300. I mean, $300 isn't chump change but at least you didn't deprive her of some life changing amount of money...

Pigs are BACON, not PETS!!! You deserve it for trying to go against the natural order of things!

You idiot!!! Yes we use pigs as food, but they make the best pets ever, there intelligent (unlike you), fun, clean (not that you would know!) :@

...then give her $300. She'll be heartbroken, but your pet just wiped out three years of effort and likely a ridiculous amount of money. It's impossible to make that up to her, but you can at least compensate her for the garden showing. And...a fence might be a very good idea.

It does suck for both sides on this one. I'd probably have to come clean and let her know the pig ate the flowers. I'd also give her $300 to help start over. Word of advice, OP - Good fences make good neighbors. Contain your pet.

Tell her your pig won a Best Pig Competition because of his diet of flowers. You want to split the $1000 prize with her. Yeah, you'll be out $500, but at least your pig lives. The poor pig shouldn't have to die because of your stupidity, irresponsibility and incompetence.
