The following are actual winning analogies in the "worst analogies ever written in a high school essay" contest:
"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."
"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.quidaaak/ch@ng by mistake."
"He was as tall as a six-foot three-inch tree."
"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 6:36pm traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19pm at a speed of 35 mph."
"The politician was gone but unnoticed, like the period after the Dr. on a Dr. Pepper can."
"John and Mary had never met. They were like two hummingbirds who had also never met."
Now it's your turn! Think up the most weirdest/awful/funniest/omgwhatareyoudoing simile (or even metaphor) and share it with us!
