POINTERS AND METAPHORS

What's the best way to describe pointers using metaphors?

A friend of mine told me once:
"A woman is a pointer, because she holds the number of the man's bank account."

Any other metaphors?

for the compiler
const char test[] = "abc";
and
const char * const test = "abc";
is exactly the same, however the concept of an array is very differend than the concept of a pointer.

I can't believe you fags still confuse that shit.
faggots.
