Hi,
I was watching a interview. All of sudden, the hostess said something was like a dinosaur(I can't remember exactly what it was. It was like a product that's no longer popular and it's dying out or something like that). So I was like, what? Are you a kid? Why do you have to use animal in your metaphor? Adults don't usually talk like that unless they are talking to kid.
I understand the content in my question is highly subjective. So I would like to know what you guys think.
Thank you!
