are you really that dense?

Metaphors are a way to describe something. Authors use them to make their
writing more interesting or entertaining.

Yeah, it's a way authors take unrealistic situations and use them to
brainwash people into their point of view!

Double-A is correct!
A Bertism: *"Spin is in!"

Metaphors are used to put whatever "spin" on a story the author is pleased
to present!

How well one likes your story depends upon whatever "spin" they are in!

Your story is memorable for those who, next chance they get, watch a large
group of ants munching on a grasshopper!

The ants will not be munching on a grasshopper unless those mean
people have torn the legs off the grasshopper to take away his natural
means of escape.

For their tiny size and individually minimal mass, those ants can hold
their own against any giant grasshopper.
