Without wanting to insult the intelligence of bunterwannabe*, let's hgave a brief disection of his analogy - "like a fat old trout in a millpond".
Well, being a fat old trout would suggest a level of piscine slothfulness unlikely to translate into rapid surface bait consuming momentum. As to the the mill pond location of said trout, I must admit I am lost as to how this contributes to bunterwannabe's otherwise compelling imagery. Could it be that somehow his sub-metaphysical imagery has been compromomised by a Proustian metatype? Or maybe he's just a twat. I know where the smart money is going.
*This is, of course, a lie.
