    I the Star Trek The Next Generation episode “Darmok and Jalad” we encounter the Tamarians, and they speak in metaphors.

    This is one metaphor that appears a couple times in the episode.

      Misunderstanding a cultural reference that refers to a culture that speaks only in cultural references that cause misunderstandings is delightful either way.
