An allusion links up to some previous text, so you would have to think of stories in which the characters experienced a long series of problems. To understand an allusion, you have to already be familiar with the previous story. So, for example, in the movie "Dante's Peak" the characters deal with problems upon problems upon problems trying to escape, so an allusion to that movie might be: "I had a Dante's Peak sort of day" or "It was one of those Dante's Peak days". Of course allusion tend to refer to famous classic stories, so maybe "I felt like the Old Man and the Sea" would be better (a classic by Hemmingway).

People are under the illusion that so called problems are to be handled in a certain way. My belief is a so called problem really always a real problem?
