metasimile 

Share definition Flag
A comparison you have made, usually followed by a variation of the word 'whatever' when you do not recall what the name of the literary device(s) you just used are.

Something said maybe not literally(1), maybe literally(2) which is literally(1(as references literally(2))) just as important when you want to make an important point. At this point, who cares whether it was a metaphor or a simile? What are you, a grammar troll? Let it go. Come out from under the bridge and stop correcting people all the time. There you go. Stand up straight and stretch until you can feel your lower back arch a little and a big percent of that stress goes *ahhhhh*. Like that. A 'metasimile' for 'Keep it Player' which some white guy may have mis-heard when someone said 'Keep it, Player' as someone tried to hand them something they didn't want to be in possesion of, whhich was why they accompanied the phrase with an gently upraised, palm-first 'no thank you' gesture.

Caution: metasimiles are prone to endless recursion which may provoke stack or heap overflow.

A metasimile is constrained in that it must always be an antisolecism, except as used in the example sentence.
"A metasimile should never be a solecism, unless you are Conan O'Brien."

Honestly? After that definition? me-ta-sim-i-le not meta-simile would be the most cross-domain way of saying 'metasimile' but you can pronounce it however you want. It's like 'SQL' that way, in that normally efficient people insist on not saying just 'See-kweel' like a normal person would after saying it more than 3 times, but instead say 'Ess Kwyoo(?) Ell' for decades? That was just a metasimile, or something.
