Analogy Rejects
I fired up my trusty external harddrive sidekick which has sustained me through numerous laptop crashes and now houses years of antaño artifacts. One assignment from my college English 101 class was to come up with original analogies. I don’t think any of these will catch on and interestingly enough, I don’t really think the first is original to me:
Let’s make like a shepherd and get the flock out of here.
Wednesdays are like celebrations after a long-fought battle.
A good book is like cuddling with your snickerdoodle, you don’t wanna pull yourself away.
Writing is like trying to catch money in one of those money-blower machine thingys; like the money, your thoughts are coming so fast, you can’t catch them all.
English 101 is like Monty Python; sometimes funny, other times, you are just confused and want to turn it off.
I am like Andorra.
Headaches are like that yappy dog you just wanna kick.
Salsa without chips is like salmon without a river.
College is like waking up everyday only to be punched in the face.
