I know you’ve all been waiting for this- the final round of student analogies and metaphors!
And the crowd goes wild!
1. The young fighter had a hungry look, the kind you get from not eating for a while.
2. He was lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck, either, but a real duck that was actually lame. Maybe from stepping on a land mind or something.
3. The ballerina rose gracefully en pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog at a fire hydrant.
4. He fell for her like his heart was a mob informant and she was the East River.
And my all-time favorite…
5. It was an American tradition, like fathers chasing kids around with power tools.
If you missed the others, there’s some here, here, and here. I hope you enjoyed the goofiness!
I'm off to share #5 with my husband right now (laughing…)!!
Terresa- There's just something about that image that sets me off laughing every time. 🙂 Although I do love #2. Poor little duck!
Priceless. Thanks for sharing.
Those are fantastic!
I've always loved #2. #4 is pretty great too, though. Thanks, Stephanie! 🙂
Hahahaha!!
Ok, I love #3 for it's ability to completely ruin a nice visual by introducing dog urine into the equation…
And #4 is actually hilarious– in the right context,it could totally be pulled off!
So hilarious
ooh, Stephanie! I just noticed you're almost to 100 followers!
…you gonna have a party?
Oh I love these. They always make my week!
Gold! Are these from kids? They are so funny. I loved the east river one!!
These are hilarious!! Especially…
3. The ballerina rose gracefully en pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog at a fire hydrant.
I am going to miss these 🙂
Those are hysterical!! I'm very impressed 🙂 I can't even decide which is my favourite!
I love number 4 … the scary thing is it actually makes sense.
Heheheheee… sniggle sniggle snort snort!! 🙂 I will miss these.
3,4 and 5 rocked my socks. Gracefully like a dog lifting his leg to pee? haha!
I did ballet for a number of years. Number 3 made me laugh out loud.
ROTFL at the mob informant/East River!! That is too hilarious!
Ahahahahaha!
I'm conflicted… I'm laughing, but I'm sad it's over 🙁
I love those. That's hilarious and soooooo made my day. Thanks for sharing those with us. Every now and then, I could use a pick me up like that. Today is one of those days… (wedding planning drama) ugh
These are my absolute favorite posts. I laugh out loud every single time. I can't decide if I like the ballerina or the power tool analogy better…
They're all so funny I can't choose. Thanks for making me smile!
Found you by way of Lisa and Laura. This is hilarious! I blogged on metaphors today, I love them!
