Make your subconscious connect!
Hi to all,

Thought I'll start off by tickling your creative edge with metaphors and similes. Here are three phrases which you have to finish with whatever metaphor or simile that comes immediately to mind. Don't be afraid if it is not good enough - just connect to it in a new creative way that reflects your uniqueness!


1. The coffee spilled on the rug like ...
2. Love is like hate when ...
3. She held her rage within her as if it were ...

Re: Make your subconscious connect!
1. The coffee spilled on the rug like ...
- a gush of s*** out of a broken sewer.
- an inebriate's torrent of noxiously putrid puke.
- the downpour of George Bush's crocodile tears over Iraq's dead civilians.

2. Love is like hate when ...
- you fail to set your romantic emotions in motion.
- your girlfriend finally sees you for the jerk that you really are.
- after 20 years of marriage, your wife still forgets to cap the toothpaste after use, even after you have placed a font 32 poster saying "Cap the Toothpaste" above the bathroom mirror.

3. She held her rage within her as if it were ...
- her life's mission to prove Shakespeare's "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" wrong.
- a bottled up volcanic eruption threatening to score 9.0 on the Richter scale.
- a desperate attempt to scrimp on buying red cheek blushers.
- blasphemous to spew expletives in absolute anger.

Re: Make your subconscious connect!
1. The coffee spilled on the rug like ...the flow of a black river due to the pollution
2. Love is like hate when ...love and hate collide and ended up not knowing which is love and which is hate
3. She held her rage within her as if it were ... turmoil of erupted volcano plus tremendous earthquake that just don't want to come out

1. The coffee spilled on the rug like a dark pool of blood.
2. Love is like hate when emotions rage.
3. She held her rage within her as if it was a sealed bottle ready to burst at any second.

Re: Make your subconscious connect!
1. The coffee spilled on the rug like my coins dropping out through a hole in my pocket
2. Love is like hate when time passes.
3. She held her rage within her as if it were a shaken carbonated drinks which are going to burst from the bottle
