Whats the best metaphor/simile you can come up with about someone who drinks a lot?
>He drank like he was dying of thirst at every moment. >He drank more than all the rain in winter.
Give me your best Veeky Forums, I want to be convinced this board is full of talent!
Jonathan Edwards
really solid first one, he drank like he was really thirsty--what more do you need?
Jeremiah Sullivan
he drank like the antidote was in it.. which, in a way, it was.
Jaxon Perez
He drank like he had a cup in his hand filled with liquid that he really wanted to drink.
Ryan Hughes
He drank like he was addicted to alcohol.
Nolan Sullivan
this sounds really familiar, is it from something?
Thomas Davis
He drank until he drank some more.
Hunter Richardson
he smelled like what he drank
Joseph Collins
He drank like he forgot everything;his life,his troubles and enjoyed every moment of estacy
Lincoln Mitchell
He drank like a toothless old whore who was the only woman you ever had and who held your embarassing little cock like a bottle of liquor and swallowed your semen and fucking choked on it and whose face turned blue and who died with your cock in her mouth. Help drank like your stepfathet used to, the one who beat you up every day after school, the one who fucked you up the ass one night in August, the one who made you the sick pathetic fuck you are today.

He drank like it was okay to be dank in public. He drank like a swelling in his neck needed to be accommodated. Liquid phased out of being when he wanted it. He drank as if to fill his emptiness that was himself. He drank like there was no more blood hounding him for his duties. He drank like he had friends, who cheered him on once but who were all dead now. He drank like he had honor he never had. He drank so that he could shrivel inward into this other corpse that he dreamed of wasting in forever. He drank like it was his job to drink all the leftover beers at the comedy club. He drank like he stank: he stank good, very good.
Elijah White
The drunk was drinking until he was drunk.
Blake Bailey
>He drank like OP's mom when she came to terms with the walking, talking embarrassment that her stanky-ass pussy wrought upon the world
Lincoln Turner
Shoveling the remains of his drink down his throat, his mouth clamped shut, shuddering as the ice desolved with the last bit of taste.
Owen Price
He drank like a sad man in a happy hour, like an ocean doth a river, yes, indeed he did, drink like a fraught child wrangling at the teet of le goddess of vine, like a gutter suckling down salty rain, he held his chalice toward the heavens and prayed, I reckon, frankly, he drank like there was no today, he drank like he was the distilled, returning himself unto his truest form, was he seeking purity, was he corrupted, and seeking corruption more, of a wetter kind, did he want his spirit drenched, soaked in the divine oils of the calmed nerve, or the rambunctious howls of the prowled wolf, he drank, his friends said he drank like a champ, the legends say he drank like a legend, his wife said he drank like an asshole, an asshole... sucking up the soupy poop?
Jayden Foster
I hope that was ironic
Hunter Gray
He felt the sting of the liquor passing his throat, as natural to him as a sunrise and far more frequent in its passing.
Owen Perry
He drank as if Ganesha, the elephant-headed Hindu deity, has stuck his mystic trunk deep into his mortal bowels and was siphoning the world's liquor through his frayed intestines and into the god's unquenchable gullet with the force of seventy-four hurricanes.
Ryder Parker
He drank as if he were already engulfed in the devil's fire.
Joshua Ramirez
he drank like he drowned in a waterfall
Leo Bell
The good ones
Eli Smith
>shoveling >liquid
Poor word choice t b h. It ruins the whole sentence.
Ryan Gomez
What word do you think would work better ? I agree that the metaphor is pretty good but 'shoveling' seems misplaced
Dominic Powell
Only good one ITT desu.
Jaxson Flores
guzzling draining chugging slurping
Jace Wilson
He drank like a motherfucker He drank like the scotch was called Mariana's He drank as a whale breathes
He drank as I'm brilliant
Christopher Roberts
he drank like an irish uncle tom
Jordan Price
That's metonymy, not metaphor.
Christopher Davis
He drank like he was afraid he was missing out. He drank because of tomorrow.
Wyatt Miller
A metaphor is communicating one idea in terms of another. Metonymy is a type of metaphor.
Nolan Ortiz
He drank as if he got it just far enough down his throat he would get it to finish, so that it would finally be over.
Elijah Johnson
he was like a swollen, bursting wineskin as he sat there inflated with drink.
Jaxson Davis
he drank hard: two-fisted white knuckled elbows akimbo with both hands on the jug. it was like he was tring to drown something inside him. drown or poison or pickle some thing that he feared was growing, spreading, reaching small red claws through the whites of his eyes and tussling with the fibers of his motor cortex so that his hands shivered and clenched and lost all knowledge. he drank like a man who would lose, and lose hard, and would not seek for blame.
Levi Barnes
he drank quite a bit.
Jace Smith
Drink alwayes and you shall never die: if I drink not, I am a ground dry, gravelled and spent, I am stark dead without drink, and my soul ready to flie into some marish amongst Frogs; the soul never dwells in a dry place, drouth kills it. O you butlers, creaters of new formes, make me of no drinking a drinker, a perennity and everlastingnesse of springkling, and bedewing me through these my parched and sinnewy bowels; he drinks in vaine, that feels not the pleasure of it. This entereth into my veines: the pissing tooles and urinal vessels shall have nothing of it. If came such liquor from my bullock, would you not willingly thereafter suck the udder whence it issued?
Gargantua chapter 5 is a huge list of jokes like this.
Julian Evans
>majority of posts start with "he drank"
Carter Russell
Whats wrong with that exactly?
Ethan Roberts
he drank for the hangover.
Grayson Harris
he was a thirsty-wirsty goo goo ga ga baby boy
David Rodriguez
Pouring. Dumb-ass
Michael Cook
The more he drank, the more he shat, but the more he shat, the thirstier he grew.
Jackson Hughes
Oh lordy lord i like this one. Dat pathos tho
Nathaniel Cruz
He didn't drink because he had to get drunk, or because he liked it, or for any other particular reason but that his thirst was unquenchable.
Gabriel James
he was one of those bird thingies that sit on a cup or maybe a bucket and go up and down except the bird (which is fake) actually drank the water.
Kevin Morales
every barman in the town knew his name
Luke Ross
funneling
Christopher Bennett
the cunt would always froff a tinny... or six
Noah Clark
Took shoveling as a reference to the ice, and more like he was pushing it in, with force, even though there was no more liquid within
Jayden James
>He drank because there was nothing else to do
Anthony Reed
He drank to completion as if a young plant in dire need of re-potting. This gave him the courage to drink some more.
Adam Anderson
That was awful
Brody Baker
>He drank until he was half full, then he drank until he was half empty
Cooper Rodriguez
he drank because God said so
Dominic King
he drank like ops mom during pregnancy
Lucas Bennett
If the glass is full drink up (drink up) this may be the last time we see this cup, if God wanted us sober he'd knock the glass over so while it is full we drink up.
Oliver Scott
best one so far
Grayson Flores
Drinking became his habit, uncouncious as eye blinking, Drowning in liquor, to forget, to rest, to feel human again so he could live everyday.
Eli Gonzalez
>He drank like sobriety was death itself, and in his case perhaps it was.
>Water was what he drank when all else was gone.
>It was always a glass half-empty with him, which he intended to empty entirely.
>It was not that he needed to drink, but why wouldn't he, when the alternative was sobriety?
James Williams
B T F O T F O
Lincoln Sanchez
He drank as if he was trying to catch the feeling, and it was always one step ahead of him.
Anthony Brooks
>I am trying to bring all the [wine-dark] sea into this hole
Grayson Lopez
He drank more than an alcoholic. An alcoholic drinks a lot
Ryder Watson

Julian Rogers

Jason Garcia

Aiden Hill
He drank like a large bucket who hath said fuck it
Lincoln Powell
He drank like a hungry person eats a lot
Jacob Young
He drank like your mother.
Christian Sanchez
He drank like the ocean gulps water from the world's rivers, and yet the ocean is never full.
Juan Nelson
>This stupid son-of-a-bitch liked to drink. A lot. He drank a lot. Sometimes he'd wake up in the middle of the night to pull open his nightstand and pour himself a glass of bourbon. Once, at a party, the host, his friend, asked the stupid son of a gun to leave because his drinking was ruining his relationship. His friend's relationship. Not his own...At his friend's daughter's birthday. This asshole was an alcoholic asshole. An unapologetic, alcoholic asshole. Fuck him too.
Ethan Gutierrez
Holy... i want more
Robert Diaz
>he drank like he was howling at a moon at the back of the bottle.
Isaac Diaz
He drank like a dog who drinks a lot
Julian James

Nolan Edwards

Justin Gutierrez
He drinks as though each shot drags him still closer to the inescapable doom he fell into years ago, and now impatiently he yearns for that tragic final throw.
Ian Lee
The real ones (after; ): (???) My favorites:
Parker Edwards
He drinks like he's swallowing himself, and not in small gulps.
Camden Rogers
He drank like he was watching the endless eight for the eightieth time
Jackson Sanchez
alliteration
Brandon Diaz
He drank so much that he drowned, that is in a metaphorical sense.
Nicholas Ortiz
>that is in a metaphorical sense oh
Hudson Hall
Why don't you try coming up with an original thought by yourself?
David James
It's not for a piece you douche, I just want to read them
Ryan Flores
He drank so much that the sentence describing him was drukn
Parker Parker
4th wall is BROKEN!!! Simply ebin.
Landon Clark
Maybe i'm just stupid, but it makes no sense. Also it doesn't flow, as an image or in word. No hard feelings though.
Elijah Nelson
In his opinion, the glass was neither "half full" nor "half empty." Rather, it was "in need of a refill."
Chase Smith
Never could one claim that he was drinking, only that he had drunken.
James Carter
...
Ayden Powell
Most of them belong there >he drank because he drank hurhur
Good to see lots of people are taking it seriously though
Austin Johnson
He drank like someone cared
Julian Sullivan
Crash! He's an alcoholic!
Liam Brooks
He came in barren, hollow, hoping the fullness of the cups and vials would diminish the condition. The vessels drained, and nothing was filled. Emptiness begot emptiness. The absurdity was fascinating, and so he persisted.
Dominic Bailey
He drank like a man wanting to forget.
Brody Howard
>"Humph !" resumed the voice, as I continued my survey, "you mus pe so dronk as de pig, den, for not zee me as I zit here at your zide."
(c) edgar poe
Zachary Turner
He handled the glass so casually that you'd almost forget to notice it, or to notice that you'd never seen him without it.
Jeremiah Myers
He drank as often as he wept, and he wept often with a drink in his hand.
Lincoln Bailey
Sunset found him sitting in the kitchen, groaning. Every thought was looser than the one before, and fouler. By the time the moon came up he was drinking brown water. The more he drank, the more he sat, but the more he sat, the thirstier he grew, and his thirst sent him crawling to the fridge for another beer.
