As .....as

As American as apple pie
As Irish as Paddy's pig
As alike as two peas in a pod
As black as coal
As black as pitch
As black as the Earl of Hell's waistcoat
As black as the ace of spades
As black as thunder
As black as your hat
As blind as a bat
As blind as a mole
As bold as brass
As boring as a wet weekend in Wigan
As boring as watching paint dry
As brave as a lion
As bright as a button
As bright as a new pin
As broad as it is long
As busy as a beaver
As busy as a bee
As busy as a one armed paper hanger
As busy as a one legged arse kicker
