PF or GF

[Kane McGoodwin]

Grand Final for me. I would prefer that we get further, even if a loss may hurt more than a prelim.

It's a hard one, and all i can really say is that if it was this years GF that we lost and also having to sit through the crap that the afl called 'entertainment' pre-game as well I would be truely devastated, so I would prefer this years result.


Honestly though would much rather make a GF than not (although as a South supporter I'm pretty good at coping with loosing)

"In language, a metaphor is a rhetorical trope defined as a direct comparison between two seemingly unrelated subjects. Typically, a first object is described as being or having the properties of a second object. In this way, the first object can be economically described because implicit and explicit attributes from the second object can be used to fill in the description of the first. Some (particularly in cognitive linguistics) see metaphor as a basic cognitive function, while others prefer the term analogy for this concept. However, metaphor is not always used for practical description and understanding; sometimes it is used for purely aesthetic reasons. Metaphors are commonly confused with similes, which use the words "like" or "as."

And all the time I thought it was a simile. Damn, should have known it was a "rhetorical trope"

now i am confused, i am leaning towards a simile. The important thing is it was used in the correct context, something very rare here.

Simile.

For more examples listen to any Crowded House song. Over-use similes more than any other writers in history.

GF. Although it would hurt a lot more, it would just make winning one even better.
