air filter
n=1
a: Air filter ~
b: the nose of your car
What: "The air filter is like the nose of your car. It filters the air that the engine needs to burn the gas. When the filter gets dirty or clogged up it makes the engine work harder and starts to reduce your fuel economy. I refer to a dirty air filter like us having a stuffed up nose in the winter time :)"

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
