Break Out Like Wool

 
In a conversation yesterday, a friend of mine used the phrase “break out like wool”. All I could think of was, “Wool sweaters are kinda itchy, sure, but ‘break out like wool’…?” I had no idea what that even meant.
 
Now I know. But I don’t care.
 
From now on, everything “breaks out like wool”.
 
Examples:

That superflu epidemic broke out like wool and now it’s just you and me, baby.
Jimmy’s rash broke out like wool. He’s already scratched through three layers of skin.
The prisoners broke out like wool and disappeared into the storm.
The horde of ravenous, undead sheep hit the gate and broke out like wool.

 
Feel free to make up your own events/characters that “break out like wool”.
