Piglet and Sow

"What is the meaning of life?" asked the piglet.
The sow thought for a while. "To eat and sleep, my child. To be."

"What is the purpose of life?" asked the piglet.
"To be life for humans," replied the sow. "Food."

"What happens after we become food?" asked the piglet.
"We'll be washed down the sewers," answered the sow simply. "Take comfort, child. At least we know where we're headed. Humans don't."

Knowing your fate might not be better than not knowing your fate... At least you can pretend that it's going to be a good future. The pigs are doomed knowing that they're destined for the sewers ^^
