You're as ATTRACTIVE as the goddess VENUS when she came down from ELYSIUM You're about as GOOD-LOOKING as the back end of a FAT plumber You're as FAST as a TRIATHLETE with a PACK of rabid DOGS behind him You're about as INTELLIGENT as a BRAINDEAD monkey That POEM was akin to a summer picnic in the RAIN I've got an assload of these.

A sea of troubles. It's not actually a sea, it's just saying the troubles are massive and crowded (a lot of troubles) like the sea.

LogicCannon said: "You're as ATTRACTIVE as the goddess VENUS when she came down from ELYSIUM" Simile. LogicCannon said: "You're about as GOOD-LOOKING as the back end of a FAT plumber" Simile. LogicCannon said: "You're as FAST as a TRIATHLETE with a PACK of rabid DOGS behind him" Simile. LogicCannon said: "You're about as INTELLIGENT as a BRAINDEAD monkey" Simile. LogicCannon said: "That POEM was akin to a summer picnic in the RAIN" Akin = related... So, comparison word = simile. If you use like, as, or any comparison word, it becomes a simile and not a metaphor. ScaniaSin said: " You is hot like fire. 'Nuff said." Simile. I know you guys are trying to help.. But similes and metaphors are not the same. @Above: Read what I did here.

While the storyline is sub par, the gameplay is where the meat is. Here, the gameplay is being described as "the meat," or "the main portion" of the game. It's the part everyone looks forward to, etc. LOL@ everyone getting pissed about the simile guy, but not providing a metaphor.
