Who doesn't like a good analogy?

Those were kind of lame. Your post was like a post hole digger with jackhammering nun.

I accept your criticism with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one ofthose boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it.

Got this by email. I doubt they are "actual" but most made me laugh. Have a good weekend! -------------------------------------------- Every year, English teachers from across the USA can submit their collections of actual analogies and metaphors found in high school essays. These excerpts are published each year to the amusement of teachers across the country. Here are last year's winners. 1. Her face was a perfect oval, like a circle that had its two sides gently compressed by a Thigh Master. 2. His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a dryer without Cling Free. 3. He spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it. 4. She grew on him like she was a colony of E. Coli, and he was room-temperature Canadian beef. 5. She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up. 6. Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever. 7. He was as tall as a six-foot, three-inch tree. 8. The revelation that his marriage of 30 years had disintegrated because of his wife's infidelity came as a rude shock, like a surcharge at a formerly surcharge-free ATM machine. 9. The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't. 10. McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup. 11. From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on at 7:00 p.m. Instead of 7:30. 12. Her hair glistened in the rain like a nose hair after a sneeze. 13. The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you fry them in hot grease. 14. Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. Traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19 p.m. At a speed of 35 mph. 15. They lived in a typical suburban neighbourhood with picket fences that resembled Nancy Kerrigan's teeth. 16. John and Mary had never met. They were like two hummingbirds who had also never met. 17. He fell for her like his heart was a mob informant, and she was the East Ri
That made me laugh a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.

I wont fall for that one, its just an analogy, like one that a teacher would make when she has nothing else to do but think of analogies.

Still one of my favorites: A programmer trying to use a good analogy is like a chicken trying to farm broccoli. There's never enough tire pressure.

Aren't those similes? It's like Alanis Morissette's "Ironic", which doesn't seem to include any actual ironies.

Some of them are really good - you can imagine the voice of the book where they would fit perfectly. The others are utterly bad. And it's a thin line between them. >> Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever. perfect self-referentiality
