Random Analogies
Grumpy Old Liberal?
a: Burning man ~
b: herpes
What: "Burning Man would be bad enough if it simply existed somewhere far away. Like the Tea Party or pirates, an abstract I only had to encounter when I clicked on a specific link to a Yahoo story. Or if I still lived in Connecticut. But I live in the Bay Area, where Burning Man is like herpes. The shit is everywhere."

b: a superhero molecule

Not A Bad Analogy
a: Allele ~
b: dessert
What: "An "allele" is the form that the gene can take, or how well it can do the job. Think of it using a bad analogy:
"gene" is like dessert, "allele" is like pie or cake. After dinner,
you need your dessert, but some people have pie, others have cake."
