"It was hot - the kind of heat that makes you long for the weather to cool down."

it's like when someone does your hw and they make it a little bad so it's believable you did it. we'll shoot for a B - fam, nobody gonna believe you got an A+.

It just reminded me of this thing Amber Sparks said about how the best money she ever got was for ghost writing and she cared so little about the project she wrote the last section half drunk at a party and got no notes back.

That's the life I want to read (also I tweeted this at her and she replied she was actually high lmaooo. queen behaviour)

This sounds like it was ripped directly from that listicle about the 50+ best/worst analogies written by high schoolers

LOL. This is prob dead on accurate.

It reminds me of that list that went viral of the "best" bad writing lines. Stuff like "the pebble skipped across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball would not" and "the graceful ballerina lifted her leg toward the air like a dog aside a fire hydrant"
