analogies and figures of speech I have used recently

Explaining why it's not a good idea to try to shop in Mysore for shirts that will be gifts for Leonard: "I can find things to fit me. Leonard is built .... like Bheema."

Explaining that Leonard, though an atheist, is fine with me being a Hindu: "For him, it's like I have a hobby. Like basketball."

Surveying multiple bookshelves of books that are not arrayed in any particular order: "This isn't a library. It's a pile, on shelves."

That last one is epic. My life is a pile on shelves.
