a: Arguing with a good lobbyist ~
b: trying to hold a snake coated in Astroglide
What: "Arguing with a good lobbyist is like trying to hold a snake coated in Astroglide-it feels slightly gross, and you'll never get a decent grip on it before it slips away. I could never pin down why I felt crappy before he'd convince me that I didn't really have any reason to."

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.
