Whahahahahaha laughing so hard right now.
Thank you for this xD
Edit:
[UPDATE 12/1/11: It has come to my attention that most, if not all, of these were actually written for a Washington Post contest, not by high schoolers. As a journalist, I feel it's my responsibility to set the record straight now that this post, for some reason, is garnering thousands of hits. Even so, I think we can all agree these similes are pretty hilarious regardless of who wrote them. I've also had a good handful of comments that these are not analogies yes, it would probably be more accurate to call them similes, the technical name for this rhetorical device, but an analogy is simply a comparison between two things, which is still true for these. I kept this title to remain true to the original post from which I borrowed this. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed and were able to have a laugh!]
Aw. Still good enough for a laugh.
