I find these journalistic analogies both funny and infuriating.

I remember one “journalist” explaining that the shells from a 16 naval gun as the size of a Volkswagen. No! It weighed about as much as a Volkswagen. It was not the size of a Volkswagen. Idiots!

“It weighed about as much as a Volkswagen”

A F.O. friend had a chance to call in the New Jersey.

Walking them in as usual, the Sailor says, ‘hey buddy, they each cost the same as a new Cadillac, just tell us where you want it’!
