Bleed like a stuck pig

Meaning: To bleed heavily.

Example: Handle that straight razor carefully. If you cut yourself, you will bleed like a stuck pig.

Origin: The throat of a pig set for slaughter is cut or opened with a sharp spike or knife. Because the cut severs the jugular vein, the pig bleeds rapidly. See the related phrase "kick the bucket".
