But you will.

Every time your folks ask you to do something dumb, like clean your room or eat your vegetables or stop hitting your brother, you’ll have your When Pigs Fly Plush Pig to squeeze. And to your parents, you’ll look like just another kid squeezing a favorite plush animal, a kid with a friend.

But they’ll never have to know that every time you hold this guy close, you’re telling our parents, “Sure, I’ll do that. WHEN PIGS FLY.” You don’t get many victories as a kid, especially in the face of adults telling you what to do, but this one will be yours.

Just do us a favor: adults have a nasty habit of growing up and forgetting how good it feels to tell someone, “When pigs fly!” Don’t forget. Don’t ever forget.
