Lol
I wonder how many people didn't get that :wink:


Metaphor : A figure of speech which describes a person or object in a literary way by referring to something that is considered to possess similar characteristics to the person or object you are trying to describe.

Example : Being on the inside track.

Similie : A figure of speech used to show similarity between one object and another

Example : As timid as a mouse.

It's quite difficult to explain in words really, but with examples you can clearly see the difference.
 
saint-> spoiler? i was almost afraid to look at it. hehe a spoiler on a thing a person has yet to learn.
 
If the post count is meant to represent the amount of meaningful contributions, I think I'll have to introduce a "post count factor" (multiply the post count with a constant before displaying it). Joey's would probably be at ...around 0.2.
  :z
 
Joey: The others in here don't seem to be very helpful, I'll try to explain. What Qhimm meant was that your comment was kind of not needed, because it is obvious that "spoiler" means a big black box, after all Saint put up a big black box after the words! So while correct it didn't add anything to the conversation...

Keep it up and I'm sure you'll become a moderator soon.


(Seriously, this whole thread gave me quite a good laugh)
 
why would you want spoiler to be a bix black box? neat trick but it really is an unesscary ability . what did the forum move too? fix the smileys too please. this thread, like alot of the others, seem to be a totaly new discussion. :razz:.
a good idea for an extra would be like 1 time playing sounds that you clicked on. other wise they would get annoying.
 
Spoiler tag unnecessary? You are not one those people who start reading a book by reading the last page first, are you? :razz:

Seriously, that tag is just about the best invention since... ...something.
 
no, well not all books.... now while the spoiler tag id cool you could just use some html instead..... or maybe i'm being stupid. html really isan't my thing. i'm more of a programming guy.... :cry:. but i am trying to learn. so please point out my ignoraniencies.

what would be really cool is a big magenta box!!!!

Highlight the "big black box" with your mouse, Einstein.
