Well that is better than... as useful as teats on a bull!

Actually, the correct phrase is "Useless as teats on a Boar hog". But the funny part of that is that hog breeders consider the number of teats on the boars to be important, since you want sows with a full supply of teats, and it's a proven fact that boar hogs with more teats produce offspring with more teats. And since pigs have from as little as 6 up to 30 teats, and often have litters in proportion to their teats, you can see why this is important. Oh, by the way, the forward teats on a sow are more productive than the hind ones---hence that old American phrase, "sucking the hind tit."

Just a bit of left-over knowledge from my hog-raising days.
