English: The difference between a metaphor and a similarity

In English, we had a go looking at Metaphor and a similarity, what's the difference between them.

Similarity
 A similarity are "Like" or "As".
Here's a sentence for you
"This sandwich tastes like heaven"     or
"This day was hot as hell"

Metaphor
But a metaphor is something that really happened. E.g, the word "Literally"
Here's a sentence
"I Literally just kicked my friends ball over the fence"   or the word legit
I legit punched Leilani on the face"

1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say
3. Something thoughtful - how have you connected with my learning? Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
