   As warm as wool
   As sweet as honey
   As lazy as pig
   As green as grass
   As red as the rose
   As cute as a fox
   As hot as fire
   As fat as butter
   As weak as a wisp
   As cold as ice
   As old as the crows
   As sharp as a lance
   As blunt as a beetle
   As good as gold
   As ugly as sin
   As black as jet
   As poor as job
   As pale as death
   As white as the snow
   As dark as pitch
   As soft as jelly
   As bitter as gall
   As crooked as a ram's horn
   As clean as a new pin
   As wise as Solomon
   As stupid as an ass
