Why is a oiled pig in a parlor like a house on fire?

The phrase "an oiled pig in a parlor is like a house on fire" is a metaphor emphasizing chaos and uncontrollability. Just as an oiled pig is slippery and difficult to manage, potentially causing disorder in a refined setting, a house on fire represents destruction and urgency. Both scenariOS suggest a situation that is rapidly spiraling out of control, requiring immediate attention to prevent disaster.
