    Whenever I see these kind of posts, I wonder how many “dying pigs” I currently own.

        Check whether or not your friends are amused and delighted. That should give you a hint.

        The pigs are an anachronism. I just often wonder how many things I own today will be looked upon like this dying pig is.

          anachronism? I think you mean analogy or metaphor.

          a·nach·ro·nism: a thing belonging or appropriate to a period other than that in which it exists, especially a thing that is conspicuously old-fashioned.
