@TidalFlats “Arctic Steamroller", not a euphemism

@glasspusher @TidalFlats But definitely a metaphor.

Nor a simile

@TidalFlats @glasspusher At last, at age 74, my degree in English is of some use: A "simile" uses the words "like" or "as." A metaphor does not.

Metaphor: My love is a red, red rose.

Simile: My love is red as a beet because I lectured her about grammar crap.
