"Mr. Grammar"
Simile: a phrase that uses the work like or as to describe someone or something by comparing it with someone or somthing else that is similar. Hearing a high pitched squeal come from the back half of the bus I used my extensive knowledge of the English language and chose the only simile that would be appropriate for the situation. So with my bus driver authoritative voice I yelled, "Hey, whoever is doing that stop squealing like a little girl." Then I settled back in the thought of a job. well done. Immediately a little blond head popped up and said, "But I am a little girl." The squealing continued, I hummed softly to myself as we continued down the road. Well played little girl, well played.
