META-SIM-SIM

[Whimsical||MUSE;]

So, I feel very much like one of those lame school teachers that comes up with something educational, but 'fun' -- until her students look at her like she's insane. But it's okay! We'll see if this goes well.

I've named the game Metasimsim ^^ (META-SIM-SIM) for only one reason: it sounds cooler that way than Sim-sim-Meta.

It's pretty simple; someone starts out by writing a simile, then the next person has to write a simile using the other person's comparison. When someone can fit in a metaphor, they do so -- and the person above them is penalized by writing a haiku for their next turn.

It is a lot like duckduckGOOSE, except... it's for nerds...

Example:

Person A: Her skin was as dark as chocolate.
Person B: The chocolate was like heaven on my tongue.
Person C: I wanted to go to heaven as desperately as she wanted to throws everything away in a dance with the devil.
Person A: I'm your devil; dance with me.
Person C: DAMN YOU! D8 --

Get it? I'm too lazy to actually come up with one myself. ANYWHO!

He snarls, his voice like rumbling thunda

[mutt]

The thunder was as loud and ominous as the voice of Thor.

Everyone around him grew nervous, their hearts dropping like a rocket entering earth's atmosphere.

He was a rocket, as he shot off to get to his departing train.

[SÀMMIUS McGENNIEN]

The train was a star
In the sky of misfortune
That we all know well.
