Nuts. I've been beaten to it..
Shaka, when the walls fell.

Ugh, I've lost count of how many simile/metaphor offenses I've commited -- mostly while on the phone at work. I've admittedly overused "like ______ on crack" and anything relating to roadmaps and juggling. After I finish this post, I'm gonna go out in the back yard and kick my own ass!

probably because you post like I do...with a wild reckless abandon!

Like a ___ drunk on ___?

Like a one legged drunk on a unicycle?

Like Ann Coulter drunk on acid on crack.

God I love you! I thought nobody said that except me!

Neither a metaphor or simile, but if I hear one more person say "taking *x* to the next level" I'm gonna have to STRANGLE A FUCKIN MONKEY!!



obviously, I feel strongly about this.


And just for the record, tornadoes DO sound like a freight train.
