Figure of speech

Simile His skin was as cold as ice. It felt as hard as rock. She looked as gentle as a lamb. My love is like a red, red rose. These cookies taste like garbage. He had a temper that was like a volcano. He eats like a pig. He smokes like a chimney. They fought like cats and dogs. A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle . Metaphor I'm not an angel, but I wouldn't behave like that. America is a melting pot. John is a real pig when he eats. My father is a rock. How could she marry a snake like that! The policeman let him off with a yellow card. The committee shot her ideas down one by one. The private detective dug up enough evidence to convince the police to act. The new movie was very popular. People flocked to see it. The new car's sexy design increased sales for the company. Personification
The sun danced across the sky on the hot summer day. The big full moon guided me through the forest. As the rain pounded to the ground, everyone ran for cover The old car groaned as it made its way down the long open road. The wind whispered lonely sounds as it blew through the old creaky windows. The leaves raced to the ground as the children ran across the playground. The pencil moaned as the boy turned the handle on the pencil sharpener. The tornado pranced across the field and wiped away everything in its path.

The mountain gazed out over the valley. The tree welcomed me to the park. The pebbles took pleasure in bruising my feet as I walked on them.
Hyperbole
They ran like greased lightning. He's got tons of money. Her brain is the size of a pea. He is older than the hills. I will die if she asks me to dance. She is as big as an elephant! I'm so hungry I could eat a horse. I have told you a million times not to lie!

Look the softballs are falling from the sky. Look at that cow it must be 1,000,000 pounds at least.

Irony A free ride, when you've already paid. Good advice that you just didn't take. An old man turning 98, winning the lottery and dying the next day. A black fly in your chardonnay. A deathrow pardon, two mintues too late. A traffice jam when you're already late. A no smoking sign on your cigarette break. Ten thousand spoons, when all you need is a knife. Meeting the man of your dreams...and then his beautiful wife. The fire station burned down. Synecdoche The captain ordered all hands on deck. Their eyes followed him wherever he went. He lost his wheels for the weekend. The world treated him badly. Twenty sails came into the harbor. Give us this day our daily bread. Few businesses refuse to accept plastic. Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears. Prepared to scrub the entry and the stairs. The youth with broomy stumps began to trace. Metonymy He is a man of cloth. He writes with a fine hand. We have always remained loyal to the crown. The pen is mightier than the sword. The House was called to order. Fear gives wings. We must wait to hear from the crown until we make any further decisions. Learn how to use your eyes properly! That individual is quite the silver fox. The United States will be delivering the new product to us very soon. Oxymoron This is another fine mess you have got us into. There is a real love hate relationship developing between the two of them. Suddenly the room filled with a deafening silence. The comedian was seriously funny. You are clearly confused by the situation you have found yourself in. Her singing was enough to raise the living dead. Do you have the original copies that we requested? This is a genuine imitation Rolex watch. I really would like to try that new jumbo shrimp restaurant. His new girlfriend really is pretty ugly.
