**Disclaimer** This is totally random, and is more a product of lack of sleep rather than lateral thinking, but let's see where this leads... the title is your starting point. And by the way, greetings to all! | ||

CLARIFICATION: The pig is human? should have been answered yes to yesish, for this is more accurate than my 'yope'. Sorry if this caused any confusion.  | ||

Did someone think of a human being as a pig, for some reason? If so, was you this person who thought of someone else as a pig? Due to lack of sleep? Or was you the person thought to be a pig? Was the "piggish human" missing? Or is the title due to the fact that no pig really existed? Misunderstandings involved? Misunderstandings due to how somebody was described by someone else? | ||

Or were you the person thought to be a pig? on occasions, but none related to this puzzle... Was the "piggish human" missing? not really Or is the title due to the fact that no pig really existed? no pig really existed, but that is not the meaning behind the title...

on the day representing exactly one leap year prior to the beginning of my fourth decade of existence, I offer a recap... The other evening when I was browsing the LTPF, my sleep-deprived brain drew a connection (rather humorous given the context ), in which the connection made me think of the phrase "lost pig". As in my disclaimer, i once again apologize in advance, as this connection has about 1/π as much value as any of the worst 'weightless' poetry ever posted on this forum.... Hopefully, this may lead your brilliant lateral minds in a direction that will soon put this puzzle out of its misery... | ||

Thanks, all, for putting up with my insanity. Hope you got a bit of amusement from it. |
