I'm a big user of analogies in my everyday life, and some of them are fun, in my opinion. So, I decided to start this thread to share fun analogies.

I'll start you off with this one, taken from one of the guys rejected from being Joe Millionaire:

"Women are like parking spaces. All the good ones are taken, the rest are handicapped."

Gee, I wonder why he wasn't picked...

lol. ^_^ We're having to do analogies for Language Arts. x_x For Wordmaster's Competition...blegh. Good thing I have a good vocabulary. ^_^

And example of one of our analogies:

many:sundry::a collection:mélange

That's one of the easy ones. ^_^ I like word thingies! *shakes word box*

(Word box - My recipie box filled with index cards *alphabatized* holding big words and their definitions... )

Demon angel

I think the pick up lines train of thought is seaping into other trains of thought. Can't say I don't blame it

Sex is like air. It's not important unless you're not getting any.

Al Qaida members are like Heavy Metal Rockers. You think they're yelling something horrible, but it's really just unintelligable screaming.

Alcoholics are like Inertia. They don't stop without outside intervention.

Made the last two up myself :p

Edit: and here's another one on the spot.
Life is like Aids. Sexually transmitted and 100% fatal.
