I dont know any meatphors. I do know a few metaphors though.

my bad. anyone know how to change the title

"my bad. anyone know how to change the title"

Life sucks, wear a helmet.

"Life sucks, wear a helmet."

A Battle - Everything is a competition or a struggle.  We are always either winning or losing.

• A Garden - Relationships are cultivated like flowers or vegetables.  We see things as growing, flowering, producing.
• A Mission - We believe that we have the truth and we need to convince others that our point-of-view is right. 
• A Journey or an adventure - We travel from place to place meeting new people and exploring.
• A Building - Starting with a solid foundation, then adding floors and rooms.
• A Roller Coaster - Life consists of ups and downs, and we are along for the ride.
• A Stained-glass window - full of light and colors. 
• A Mountain Climb - Life consists of hierarchies.  We are always climbing the corporate ladder.
• A Race - always finding the fastest route, "keeping up with the Jonses."
• A Courtroom - Everything in life should be fair.
• Stepping Stones - We barely get comfortable where we are before we are looking for better job or a bigger house.
• A Prison - Feeling like we don't have choices, like others have all the power.
• A Classroom - There are always new lessons to learn.
• A Battery - Every encounter seems to drain energy.  We need the weekends to recharge.

wow i just went to that site

I like this one:

It is right to learn - even from the enemy

Quote I saw in Total War games. My interpretation being, even if you hate someone or something, if they have good ideas or do something well instead of disregarding it out of spite, instead take that knowledge, learn from it and add it to your own.

One from the Despair calender I bought last year - What doesn't kill you only delays the inevitable! - Humourous twist on the usual one I thought

Interesting topic btw.

"Life, is like a grapefruit. [...]it's orangey-yellow and dimpled on the outside, wet and squidgy in the middle. It's got pips inside, too. Oh, and some people have half a one for breakfast."

Douglas Adams

Shit happens deal with it

A bitch, could be a metaphor of life.

Wow so many people don't know what a metaphor is >.>

Life's a beach, with lots of fucking pointy rocks.
