Analogies written by high school students
- Her eyes were like two brown circles, with big black dots in the center.
- He was as tall as a 6’3” tree.
- Her face was a perfect oval, like a circle that had its two sides compressed by a Thigh Master
- From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie surreal quality, like when you are on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on a 7:00 pm instead of 7:30.
- John and Mary never met. They were like two hummingbirds that also never met.
- She had a deep throaty, genuine laugh – like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.
- The ballerina rose gracefully en pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog does at a fire hydrant.
- Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever.
- She grew on him like she was a colony of E. Coli and he was room temperature Canadian beef.
- 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.
- The lamp just sat there, like an inanimate object.
