I do not fully agree with this point, but this pig got to be Jeffrey DaHAMer or HAMnibal Lecter

        This is just a stock image but it’s not hard to imagine it being in a children’s story. Besides, Scrooge McDuck is an existing character in a children’s story that is a billionaire as a duck.

            their “job” is literally none other than being rich

            throwing money is part of that

            the other part is swimming in a pool of money

          All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.

          In this hypothetical situation, if you can’t imagine a fanciful depiction of a pig doing it, then it isn’t a job. But the opposite isn’t necessarily true. Just because you can imagine a fanciful depiction of a pig doing it doesn’t necessarily mean it is a job, just that it could be.

    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.
