    Do you not understand how metaphors work? Nothing is being “compared” here. Keep looking for things to be upset about.

      This is actually a simile, not a metaphor. And a simile is a type of comparison .

        A simile is a type of metaphor. All similes are metaphors, but not vice versa.
