[00:00:00]He was like a pressure cooker in which the pressure was building up and could explode at any moment. Object is what?

[00:00:05]Pressure in a pressure cooker. Situation is pressure is rising up. Chain of event is it eventually explodes. And that is a objective correlative. There's a movie Mrs. in which the dirty water under the city represents the female's female lead's pent-up emotion if that works. It does work, right? So, all the examples you've said work. What I wanted was something that is not also a symbol, right? Because symbols are the easiest thing to confuse an objective correlative with.
