I have been developing a new language for the past year or so. I just thought my way of speaking and communicating could be more exciting than it was.
So being the weird person I am - I started with this language of using outrageous metaphors in my conversations. I get strange looks at times but it usually results in a smile, grin, laughter, and the person is usually scratching their head wondering what to make out of the whole thing.
My daughter asked me if I wanted to get something to eat. She wanted to know if I was hungry. Instead of a boring response like : " Yes I'm hungry let's get a bite. " I said to her - ' I'm so hungry I could eat a horse and chase the rider. " She broke out in laughter and thought that was the nuttiest thing she's heard in awhile.
Any way enough said and time for fun I will give a few examples . The more outrageous the better . I'll state the subject matter and than the metaphor :
Mad or anger : I was madder than a rained on rooster in Florida.
running around : i was running around like a chicken with it's legs cut off.
Good idea : best idea since sliced gravy
Confused : Confused as a termite in a yo yo.
Useless : Useless as a football bat.
busy : Busier than a one armed sewer scrubber
So see what you can come up with. so get off the bed of lettuce and contribute. Don't chicken out and cry sheep- it's real easy. Never hold your nose when an idea blows. Have fun with it --
