Worst analogies ever written in a high school essay
» 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.
» She caught your eye like one of those pointy hook latches that used to dangle from screen doors and would fly up whenever you banged the door open again.
» The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't.
» McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty Bag filled with vegetable soup.
» 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 p.m. instead of 7:30.
» Her hair glistened in the rain like nose hair after a sneeze.
» Her eyes were like two brown circles with big black dots in the center.
» Bob was as perplexed as a hacker who means to access T:flw.quid55328.com\aaakk/ch@ung but gets T:\flw.quidaaakk/ch@ung by mistake
» Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever.
» He was as tall as a six-foot-three-inch tree.
» The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you fry them in hot grease.
» Her date was pleasant enough, but she knew that if her life was a movie this guy would be buried in the credits as something like "Second Tall Man."
» 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.
» The politician was gone but unnoticed, like the period after the Dr. on a Dr Pepper can.
» They lived in a typical suburban neighborhood with picket fences that resembled Nancy Kerrigan's teeth
» John and Mary had never met. They were like two hummingbirds who had also never met.
» The thunder was ominous-sounding, much like the sound of a thin sheet of metal being shaken backstage during the storm scene in a play.
» His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a dryer without Cling Free
» The red brick wall was the color of a brick-red Crayola crayon.![]()

Moral Dilemma
Moral Dilemma
Consider this situation. You are driving alone on a wild, stormy night. You pass by a bus-stop, where you see three people waiting:
1. An elderly woman who is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect mate you've been dreaming about.
Who would you choose, knowing there could only be one passenger in your car? Should you save the elderly woman or take the old friend because he once saved your life? You may never find your perfect dream lover again!
This quiz was given to 200 applicants for a single job. The one who was hired responded: "I would give the car keys to my friend and let him take the elderly woman to the hospital. Then I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the woman of my dreams."![]()

Road Dog
As I drove into a car park, I noticed that a utility truck with a dog sitting behind the wheel was rolling towards a female pedestrian. She seemed oblivious, so I hit my horn to get her attention. She looked up just in time to jump out of the truck's path, and the vehicle bumped harmlessly into the kerb and stopped. I rushed to the woman's side to see if she was all right. "I'm fine," she assured me, "but if the dog hadn't honked..."![]()
