I saw this on Reddit and had to post it. Pretty funny. These are probably the worst analogies you’ll find.

  • 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

  • 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

The Big Apple is inevitably going to release a new iPhone, supposedly, the iPhone 4G, while competitors will make more attempts to make the “iPhone Killer” that has been sought since the first generation iPhone.
