Can you come up with an odd new simile?

Asked by wundayatta (58741points) December 1st, 2011

It’s cold outside today. How cold? The UPS dude was moving like a centipede in heat! That’s how cold it was.

You know. Something a little different—that you haven’t heard before.

It was so cold, hitchhikers were holding up pictures of thumbs.

That centipede was moving fast! As fast as the UPS guy in brown shorts on a very cold morning!

Her outfit was like a tweet, hardly even covering the essentials.

Although having her along wasn’t essential, he did find it comforting, like a breakfast burrito on the way to work.

Expect the party to be like a tweet, with a maximum of 140 characters.

His suggestion was like Steve Jobs: brilliant, but stone cold dead.

My grandmother’s Sprigerlie cookies, fresh out of the oven, were as hard as the same cookies three weeks later.
This isn’t fair to my grandmother ( rest her soul) or to the cookies . . . I’ll think again

He knew it was well intended, but he received it like a hug from Sandusky.

From a former student- it’s slicker than a frozen loogie out there.

It’s so dark out that I could probably find my way easier in Satan’s asshole, after he was locked into a windowless oven.

That concrete we poured for the patio last week has set up harder than a wedding dick.
