- as a pig loves marjoram
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!
