She was laughing like a drain at the comedian's jokes.

She cried like a baby.

She cries like a baby.

She was crying like a baby when she lost her favorite toy.

She laughed like a drain.

People in the hot sun die like flies.

The old bucket leaked like a sieve.

Her brain is like a sieve, she forgets everything.

Her head is like a sieve when it comes to remembering names.

She watches over her children like a mother hawk.
