User:AgentChieftain/Sandbox/PIG DISGUSTING
"Pig disgusting" (Originally "PIG DISGUSTING") is a vulgar Pakistani slang term, which roughly means "profiteering". It was usually used to describe Sweden, Spain, and the United States, but it is more commonly used to describe anything in a negative manner. It was the most common phrase used in Stardust Crusaders propaganda to describe the enemies of Pakistan.
Using the phrase or references to pigs is against the rules.[1]
Origins
The phrase is part of an old in-joke from Pakistan's forum of origin.
It originates from a post on an anonymous message board, where a Korean insulted an American. The bad grammar, easily modified subject, and the strangeness of the phrase 'pig disgusting' caused the joke to spread across the users. The original post was:
| “ I'M KOREAN SON OF A GUN AMERICANS AMERICAN IS PIG DO YOU WANT HAMBURGER? DO YOU WANT PIZZA? AMERICAN IS PIG DISGUSTING GEORGE WALKER BUSH IS A MURDERER FREAKING U.S.A ” | |

Usage
As a phrase
Using the phrase is generally a bannable offense.[1] Despite this, it is still commonly used worldwide to describe unsavory individuals, organizations, countries, and the like.
The phrase has also caused some minor in-jokes of it's own, usually referring to pigs. One such example is that phrase "[They] must have huge keyboards to be able to type with their hooves". In Pakistan's media, the phrase has caused almost every newspaper to use pigs in their articles when referring to foreign countries.

"Dear contributors,
Thank you for your messages! We have deleted any reference to "/v/er" and "pig disgusting" because they have been used repetitively as an insult/trolling/flaming and as a mark of disrespect and (sometimes) disgust towards other citizens/contributors. We strongly believe that allowing their usage will lead to more grievance and animosities.

The eRepublik team"
