Chuckle Away The Monday Blues



I'm dedicating this Monday morning post to those who perpetually suffer from the monday blues. Read from an article recently about some funny analogies taken from actual college essays. Some of them had me bursting out in periodic fits that made my staff think I has actually "lost it". Hope you'll enjoy the read ..........



1.  Her face was a perfect oval, like a circle that had its two sides gently compressed by a ThighMaster.



2.  His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a dryer without clingfree.


3.  He spoke with the wisdom that can only come with experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of the boxes with a pinhole in it.


4.  She grew on him like a colony of E. Coli , and he was room temperature raw beef.


5.  She had a deep throaty, genuine laugh , like the sound a dog makes just before he throws up.


6.  Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever ......


7.  He was as tall as a six foot, three-inch tree.


8.  The revelation that his marriage of 30years had disintegrated because of his wife's infidelity came as a rude shock, like a surcharge at a formerly surcharge-free ATM machine.


9.  The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't.


10. Her hair glistened like a nose hair after a sneeze.


11. John and Mary had never met, just like two hummingbirds who had also never met.


12. The young fighter had a hungry look, the kind you get from not eating for long.


13. The plan might work, like my bro-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan might just work.


14. He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck, either, but a real that was actually lame, maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.


15. The ballerina rose gracefully en Pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog at a fire hydrant.


16. It was a family tradition, just like fathers chasing their kids around with power tools.


17. He was in love. When she spoke, he thought he heard bells, as if she was a garbage truck backing up.


18. Even in his last years, Grandad had a mind like a steel trap, only one that had been left out so long it had rusted shut.


19. She fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a plastic bag filled with vegetable soup.



Do try to have a good start to the week ya! ^_^
