As many of you audiophiles know, the acoustic pigometer is one of the most precise and sensitive pieces of sound-measurement equipment on the market, and as such requires extensive calibration before use. Let’s listen to how it’s done:
Calibrating the Acoustic Pigometer

They’re wavin’ their little pink antenna!
Did they know CO’s special connection to Amy Winehouse when they made this? OMG so CUTE!
Flap flap! LOL!
And yet they stay sleepin away. Adorhubulz.
The sound should be increased oinkremently.
HOW are they doing that and not waking up?! Amazing.
“Apple sauce!”<– too mean…
Piggies are adorable. Humans — not so much.
Pussytoes, I agree. Love how the peegies are all snorgled up together for their honk shu time.
No. Way. That is too hilarious. Love the synchronized ear flapping!
Wha– wh- wh- ??!
My sound system just has one of those boring old bar graph things on it. I obviously need an upgrade. (Checks Sound Warehouse online for piglet ear flaps)
Perhaps they have those invisible strings attached to their ears, like the ones on Conan O’Brien’s (and Stephen Colbert’s) hips.

~Dooooo yer ears hang low, do they wobble to an’ fro … ?~
Sometimes the pleasure of “Teh Qte” is ruined because I spontaneously imagine others Disapproving of a post’s content (though I myself find the thing in question completely delightful). This happens reflexively, like the evil antithesis of squee. Sometimes this phenomenon is reflected in the comments, when people write things like “here come the nuffers!”
Is there a word for this phenomenon?
Is there a way to stop it?
Help I can not see the peecture… Sigh Computer FAIL.
I will be back Must reboot my interwebs!
I am back Interweb Malfunction resolved and OMG PEEEEGGGGGIES.
LOLOLOLOL too funny
I think the piggies’ ears twitch every time someone says “swine flu” instead of “H1N1 virus”.
Thats so cuteeeeeeeeeeeeee pigglets are so freaking cute, i love them, my dog does this you have to scream her name a lot of times before she decides to wake up, if not all she does is moving her ears
LOL!!! “That’s animal cruelty!” So there, no one has to nuff here, they said it themselves, move along!
Cuuuuute leeeetle piglets!
love it!!! what is CO’s special connection to Amy Winehouse?
Flappage.
Is the Acoustic Pigometer™ related in any way to the Porkarina?

omg hilarious!!!
oh nevermind, it’s boxhab isn’t it?
Never in my life have I so wanted a group of baby pigggggs. That was beyond adorable.
That’s incredible! Too funny!
Flippin’ funny.
Cute, but isn’t this a little bit like continually poking someone who’s trying to sleep?
Sooooooooeeeeeeee! That’ll do, pigs. That’ll do.
@patito: nufferphobia? paranuffoid?
so wonderful, just delighted me. i love reflexes…is it for real, i mean really for real?
pyrit: ‘can you tie em in a knot, can you tie em in a bow, can you throw em over ya shoulder like a continental soldier? do your ears hang low?’
i got stuff what hangs low, but ’tain’t mah ears…
Sooooooooo cute!!!
but wait til you pick ‘em up and hear them squeal!!!LOL!
HAHAHA!! I love these people.
@Patito: nufforeboding? antici-nuffer-pation? deja nuff?
@Trixie: Pre-nuff agreement?
This was funny… until the woman started singing “Rehab.” Then it got HILARIOUS.
I don’t know why, but just the idea of singing Amy Winehouse to a pile of napping piglets just slays me…
the combination of adorable piglets and adorable accents is simply…..lovely.
I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes…even on the 3rd time watching this! Peeeglet ear flipping is too cute!
But what is the Amy Winehouse/Cuteoverload connection that you guys keep talking about???
Pre-nuff! Bwahahahahahaaaa!!
Nah… I like “nufferphobia”
Applesauce!<— I laughed out loud at that
It’s like those plastic, dancing flowers.
spb, what if my nufferphobia is actually an expression of latent nufflephilia?
Nuffobia!
Also I remember watching this ages and mages ago and thinking how perfect it would be on CO. Cute lag!
Good times!
*O0<
Sooooooooo adorable and cute – all at the same time!LOL!
@Trixie: Deja nuff XD …”I feel like I’ve hated this before…”
@Carrie: Nuffobia, yahooooy! I was thinking way too hard, trying to fit both F sounds in there. Obviously I’m uptight because of these confusing feelings.
The Amy Winehouse – C.O. connection isn’t anything celebrity-related. It’s just that Meg brilliantly converted her “Rehab” song to “Boxhab” and the chorus goes “nyerhe, nyerhe, nyerhe”!
I know there’s others out there, but this is one post that explicitly references it: http://cuteoverload.com/2008/01/02/check-out-this/
Very cute, but puzzling. Maybe they aren’t really asleep, just resting their eyes. Or maybe Amy Winehouse is so distressing to them that even in their sleep she freaks them out!
ROFL!
@Patito Gigante: Not uptight. I got the same affliction, reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally bad
Love little piggies <3
mmm…bacon!
oi
they tried to make me go to pig-hab
but I said
sque, squee, squee…
I’m with LSB with the dancing flowers! LOL!
Nuffanoid!!! (or as librarians would say in serious workshops on Constitutional Ramifications of Collection Development, “Self-Censorship”)
I LOLed hard at “Applesauce!”
xD That is freakin’ hilarious! Never seen the likes of it!
Applesauce!
(what adorable accents?)
@SoCalSis: Excellent! I knew this nuffanoia was related to Something Really Important.
Pre-nuff …
So what’s a pre-nufftial agreement?
Funny cute piglets! And they don’t wake up! Super adorable. I’d love to be the one calling out for them. I’d be very amazed and entertained!
@starlinguk: Patito Gigante defined it; Pre-nuff, when you foresee a cute post being attacked by nuffers, and it ruins the cute for you.
Oh wait, I suppose the agreement would be…. no nuffing!! If it were a perfect world. *BIG SIGH*
This is one of the best things that has ever been posted on CO. I’m dying over here! XD
this is excellent!! So funny XD
