The last round... this is the best round ever. You all were pretty funny.
About my scoring: I'm looking for an answer that well fits the analogy AND there weren't be other objects that could be used. For example, in the Fremont Street Experience analogy, N'cat said "She's over everyone's head". That was good, but it would also fit for a lot of things other than the Fremont Street Experience. The analogy should try to capture a unique quality of the object.
Another question I ask myself, would I use that in a piece of writing?
Scoring the last round:
I liked best:
She's like area 51:
clcjim: She fulfills needs that everyone denies even exist.
lhfried: Just another illegal "Alien" living off the government.
carburpo: Off limits to all but a select few
TonyRob: Deadly force authorised if you breach her secured area
Tony's was a one-up on Sue and N'cat's. One-upping (using someone's previous idea, but improving it) is allowed and encouraged!
If I had to, I could probably narrow it down to one or two above, but it's my (stolen) game so I'm saying a point to all four!
Current standing:
