When a futurist says he will pay you back soon. .

Don't expect to see it in your lifetime.

When you ask a Preterist for the money you loaned him he'll say, that he already paid you.

Better yet, the preterist will say he will metaphorically pay you back.

You can kiss you money goodbye!....LOL

When a preterist lies to his kid about something, he just says he was speaking in metaphors.

When he lies to his wife about something, she does not use metaphors on his head with her frying pan.

Metaphors are lies are metaphors; the antimetabole

“Truth was long viewed as consisting primarily in mental correspondence with reality: true thoughts represent things as they are, […] and true utterances translate the true thoughts into communicable signs.” (Hallett, 2011: 34) This definition of truth did not mention metaphors. Indeed, for many linguistic scholars who have carried researches about metaphors (Levin, Searle, Davidson, Lakoff or Johnson, to name but a few), it has been agreed that these figures of speech are lies, ...

Secondly, we can, from the previous example, draw the conclusion that metaphors are nothing but semantic falsehood; in short, they are lies.....

Metaphor
MET'APHOR, n. [Gr. to transfer, over, to carry.] A short similitude; a similitude reduced to a single word; or a word expressing similitude without the signs of comparison. Thus "that man is a fox," is a metaphor; but "that man is like a fox," is a similitude or comparison. So when I say, "the soldiers fought like lions," I use a similitude. In metaphor, the similitude is contained in the name; a man is a fox, means, a man is as crafty as a fox. So we say, a man bridles his anger, that is, restrains it as a bridle restrains a horse. Beauty awakens love or tender passions; opposition fires courage.

Let us use the words of Jesus to answer your little question Grasshopper.

Luk 13:31 The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying unto him, Get thee out, and depart hence: for Herod will kill thee.
Luk 13:32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
