Re: Worst Analogies
Its midnight, I'm the only only one up and here I am cracking up, loudly might I add, at these. I'm lucky my girlfriend doesn't wake herself to see what the commotion is. I love this.
I can live with doubt, and uncertainty, and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. [...] I don’t feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn’t frighten me. - Richard Feynman
Re: Worst Analogies
I have been laughing loudly at these, and a photo I took earlier...

Re: Worst Analogies
You know that kind of laughing where it is a convulsion and no sound comes out except the occasional snort?
I've been doing that for.....several minutes now and I haven't gotten past #16 of Ian's OP.
I'm going to asphyxiate myself on applesauce if I'm not careful.

This was all happening at about 0200 my time and I may have kept my son awake. I bet he uses it as an excuse for being tardy this morning and missing first period.

Re: Worst Analogies
My parents had a raft of comparisons, analogies, and the like. Dad didn't get mad, he got mad enough to chew nails and spit tacks. He wasn't just hung over; he felt like a rattlesnake in a cattle stampede. And when I got in bad trouble, I got whooped like a red-headed step-child.
