He is a snowflake on the river.
BTW tell Ronan that is an allusion swiped from Robert Burns!
no sir, that is a simile (albeit misquoted like a dunce) that you "swiped" from Robert Burns
NOT an "allusion" . . . which only serves to make your post bizarre

"Ronan" jumbie camped in yuh head
uh huh
Here goes the pedant.....technically it is a metaphor and not a simile and while not an allusion . . .
ahmmm, "technically" it's a simile as used in the poem . . . call a friend
and it's progress that you now know what "allusion" means
my contribution to your continuing education
"pedant[ry]" has its uses in exposing prancing frauds and posers
uh huh
