My Pancreas
a: My pancreas ~
b: a bad thermostat
What: "My pancreas is like a bad thermostat. When "normal" people start running/working out, their pancreas stops sending insulin so the sugar can be utilized by the muscle....." The link between a thermostat is a valid one. Most people understand how a thermostat works. It an electromechanical device that's sensitive to temperature changes. Likewise, the Pancreas is an organ that's sensitive to glucose fluctuations.

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.
