Analogies... lol

An analogy is used to describe something by likening it to something else that is usually familiar to the reader.  For example, if talking to my year 9 students I would explain a concept by comparing it to facebook or school or parents.  This particular analogy was written by a senior English student. 

 Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever.
