Foreign words and phrases are not a propos. Tell me what you know. Comparisons are as bad as cliches. It's highly superfluous. Be more or less specific.
Understatement is always best.
Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement. Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake. The passive voice is to be avoided. Go around the barn at high noon to avoid colloquialisms. Even if a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed.
