It was awfully like a red rag to a bull when a subordinate soldier who belongs to the office I work in did wrong to me by talking back to me and shouting at me! well... As a matter of fact, I had it coming because I have treated him like sheep and never talked with each other pointlank. After this kind of the unprecedent event, we finally got everything off our chest, I was surprised to know that he has hold grudge against me. According to him, he's thought that I have wanted to be superior to him, which has been gotten on his nerves. Well, after listening to all his words, I became speechless because of his egoism and prejudice and never told him what I have thought about him. "How can he consider himself, not the counterpart? Were I he, I could say or behave differently. This is not the place we live seperately like the scattered glass debris." I said to myself. After I called it a day, I really felt like painting the town red. However, on second thought, it's not the most adequate solution for my stressful heart and I just kept a diary of forgiving his deed and the way he's looked at me. That's because I thought it was really bad for me to hold grudge like he's done to me. The 'Eye for eye' method is not fit for modern society.This is what I want to say.:)

Unfortunately,I never had the pleasure of painting the town red, because I am a tetotaller since I was born. Let me make a clean breast of it: when a boy, I was caught red-handed, but only once. It happened during a summer walk in the country, I felt thirsty and I thought of picking some golden fruits from a plum tree without noticing the legitimate owner of the tree lurking behind the hedge. He was so kind as to wait that I had finished eating my score or so or plums, before beginning to yell at the top of his lungs.The words "pessimist" or "pessimism" were to G. K. Chesterton just like a red rag to a bull.

I have been recently arrested by the police as I was driving my car. Fortunately I was not painting the town red. Although I had to blow in a device which shows the policy a number 0,00. If this device had been able to talk it would have said to the policeman: this man is a very intelligent and serious man, oh pardon me Teacher! I mean a very civic man, he has no alcohol drunk, You can not catch him red-handed. But what a surprise! The policeman told me, that's indeed odd this 0,00 result, that's very suspicious.

Last Friday, my friends' class won two dance championships, and they were filled with a wild ecstatic happiness. Because of the honour and excitement, they decided to celebrate their victories. They did, the next day, they almost painted the town red. After the competition, they became a little lazy. Some of them were too tired to study, so they sleep during the classes directly, but the teachers often caught them red-handed. Their class teacher was extremely angry. Their behavior was like a red rag to a bull.
Kirsti, France
When my sister and I were aged less than ten we visited my grandparents during the holiday. One day we went to see if there was any fish in a hoop net. There was, so we took the fish to the house and we were rather proud of ourselves. But when my aunt saw the fish it was like a red rag to a bull. I think she was angry because it was implicitly forbidden to go so far and moreover to a place where we could have drowned. So although my aunt didn't see us catching the fish, the fact we came with the fish was as if we had been taken red-handed emptying the net hoop. My furious aunt asked if we already had cleaned fish. We hadn't. The punishment then became to clean the fish we had brought.

Deanty, Indonesia
It was my friend's birthday party, we celebrated it together. We painted the town by going to th well-known cafe in our city. When everyone enjoyed the music performance, i was caught red handed by my friend for eating her dinner meal. As my portion was not enough for me. I need more, i guess. Besides my friend is too fat, and has a big sized belly, of course she was angry just like a red rag to a bull. Oh, that's was so embarassing and i promise not to do it in the future.
Risa Takane, Japan
While I was talking to my friends on a corridor in school during the break, I spotted a coin on the floor. I quickly stepped on it secretly so I could take it later when everybody left for the next class. But it was a hoax! The coin had a string and I saw several boys laughing at me behind the pillar.So I was caught red-handed.It was so embarrassing!
Helen N, Indonesia
Well, as a normal human, of course I'd do a celebration if something really good happens. However, I won't celebrate it by painting the town red, because I think it's too much and I can't imagine what will happen to me if I do that and my parents catch me red-handed. Probably I won't be regarded as their daughter anymore. LOLYou know, my parents have ever caught me eating snacks. Actually they don't allow me to eat such food, but I disobey them.One day, my mom saw me eating snacks. Yeah, she caught me red-handed and she was really furious.See, my mom was totally mad just because I ate snacks, so can you imagine what her reaction is if she sees me paint the town red?I'd be sent to rehabilitation center, I think. Most likely they won't forgive me either.So, painting the town red is just like a red rag to a bull. I'd better not do that, after considering the risk I may face. Besides, I don't think that alcohol is nice. May be its smell is totally awful. I guess, I have to say NO to it!

I didn't paint the town red for ages. There was just nothing to celebrate.But I will paint the town red if I pass my CAE exam.

When my friend and me talk about houses it is like a rag to a bull. We both are getting angry and argue, and we newer agree to disagree.
