as a pig loves marjoram



as a pig loves marjoram

Very unlikely to happen; improbable. The phrase is usually attributed to the Roman poet Lucretius, who wrote that "swine shun marjoram." Considering that you haven't handed in a single assignment this semester, you're getting an A in this class as surely as a pig loves marjoram!
