A simile is a comparison between two things using 'like' or 'as'. Give us your best (or just make up some new ones):

"Making small-talk with Glenn, the department head, was as dull as dried dog shit baking in a Petco parking lot."

"Leo stepped on the accelerator, and the engine growled like an autistic yeti."

"Sarah had a face like an angel if it had flown full speed into a brick wall."

Don't believe everything that you read.

Submitted for your consideration, five Raymond Chandler similes.


"She's a charming middle age lady with a face like a bucket of mud and if she's washed her hair since Coolidge's second term, I'll eat my spare tire, rim and all." -- Farewell, My Lovely (Chapter 6)


"The General spoke again, slowly, using his strength as carefully as an out-of-work show-girl uses her last good pair of stockings." -- The Big Sleep (Chapter 2)


"His smile was as stiff as a frozen fish." -- The Man Who Liked Dogs (short story)


"I belonged in Idle Valley like a pearl onion on a banana split."--The Long Good-bye (Chapter 13)


"Even on Central Avenue, not the quietest dressed street in the world, he looked about as inconspicuous as a tarantula on a slice of angel food."--Farewell, My Lovely (Chapter 1)

Aaaand proof that I'm a lot of things, but not a writer, as seen (or glimpsed) in Beribboned and Bowed:
