A Dissimile is like when you eat a banana, but instead of peeling it, you compare it to another thing that isn't entirely like it. And instead of eating it, you deconstruct the comparison. Also, it doesn't necessarily have to be a banana, or any other kind of fruit, or even anything edible. Actually, it is nothing like eating a banana. Forget the banana.
Let's try again. A Dissimile is when you attempt to make a comparison between two things that can't be usefully compared, realize your problem, and then throw more words at the argument in an attempt to salvage it. This just undermines your comparison even further, to the amusement of anyone listening.
This can take several different forms:
"This is just like X, only without (element{s} crucial to X, sometimes a Long List)."
Variation: may include at least one dissimilar addition alongside the subtractions (see Jack Handey quote above) or consist entirely of them.
Optional postscript: "Come to think of it, it's not like X at all."
Or, sometimes, the opposite: "But other than that it's just like X!"
"This is just like X! And by 'X', I mean, 'A'."
Occasionally followed up by "And by 'A' I mean 'B'." ...and so on.
May involve parallel replacements, as in "This is just like W X, and by 'W', I mean, 'A', and by 'X', I mean 'B'."
"You know what X is like? That's exactly what this isn't like."
Alternatively, "This is just like X, except not," or, "This is just like X, only different."
Inverted Trope: "Besides, Y is nothing like X", where X and Y are pretty much exactly the same.
Often used as a comedy trope, but it has been known to show up in dramatic situations as well. Usually, characters will use dissimiles to make themselves look like a smartass, or because they derive amusement from raising someone else's hopes and then quickly dashing them. It may also show up as part of a pattern of Buffy Speak.
Compare The Other Wiki's article on this. Except it's not always played for laughs. And the person doesn't have to realize they've made a Dissimile. But aside from that, exactly like The Other Wiki's article.
On the other hand, a Dissimile often has a lot of overlap with Metaphorgotten. Also compare with Analogy Backfire and Lies to Children. See also Talks Like a Simile and I Would Say If I Could Say.

On The Simpsons:
Attorney Lionel Hutz has:
Coupled with Not Helping Your Case, in "Cape Feare", while trying to figure out who has been sending threatening letters to Bart, Grandpa suggests to call in Matlock and let him find the culprit.
In the episode "Bye Bye Nerdie", when Marge drag races with Otto's school bus:
When Principal Skinner presents Lisa with a key to the study hall that she can use anytime he says, "it's like you're Harry Potter without the magic and wonder."
Ned Flanders has a film to show the world without any way to get it out. He says that he is just like Michael Moore, except he's skinny, his jeans are washed, and God loves him.
Marge encourages Bart to have fun with his history report noting that history is like an amusement park, except instead of rides, you have dates to memorize.

Common in Discworld.
In Thief of Time, Lobsang describes repairing history after the Glass Clock is activated as "Imagine a thousand invisible puzzle pieces scattered all throughout time and none of them fit together right. Got that? Okay, it's nothing like that, that was just a vague analogy that might give you an inkling."
"No, but it's a lie you can understand," gets used occasionally.
Ponder Stibbons' version is when he describes an analogy as being very helpful in getting people to understand complicated magic while being, in every meaningful sense, wrong.
This quote from The Light Fantastic:
Also in The Light Fantastic, it's noted that an ancient ruler outlawed simile and metaphors, and any writer or casual speaker not careful with his phrasing would rapidly find himself a good deal shorter. About a head's worth, really (so someone describing a woman as having a face that launched a thousand ships had better have empirical evidence that the object of desire did indeed resemble a wine bottle, or appropriate documentation from shipyards).
Sourcery:
In the Discworld spin-off books The Science of Discworld, the phrase "Lies to Children" is used to refer to analogies or descriptions that are completely wrong, but prepare the listener for the real truth.
Soul Music takes the (real) simile that a guitar is shaped like a woman, and adds that this is a woman with a very long neck, no arms or legs, and six ears.
In Guards! Guards!, the description of Where the Dragons Went is "It would put you in mind of a can of sardines, if you thought sardines were huge and scaly and proud and arrogant."
There's another one in Guards! Guards! where the metaphor of the city being like a woman is shot down with 'You mean that she's big and dirty and got a river running through her?'
In Thud! one of the minor characters is Tawnee (real name Betty), a staggeringly beautiful but rather dim exotic dancer "on whom the name Betty stuck like rocks to a ceiling".

The Daily Show:
When news companies were discussing the BP oil spill, one newscaster described the plan to fix it something like "it's like conducting open-heart surgery, but underwater, in the dark, with submarines".
Senior British Correspondent John Oliver became quite upset with grassroots movements comparing their struggle against the government to that of the Colonial Revolutionaries against the British Empire. After all, the British had been real bastards at the time; by comparison, the modern American government were a bunch of pansies.
Lewis Black compared Glenn Beck's constant comparisons of people/things he doesn't like to Hitler and Nazi Germany to the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon". Except there's only one degree and Kevin Bacon is Hitler.
Jon Stewart, by way of explaining the Jimmy Savile/BBC scandal to American viewers, noted that he hosted Jim'll Fix It, a show where he granted children's wishes. Savile was "like Santa Claus, only real, and a pedophile. So basically, nothing like Santa Claus."

In The Reckoners Trilogy David has a tendency to come up with his own unique comparisons, both in conversation and internal narrative. When he says them out loud people sometimes demand he explain what on earth he's going on about, and they generally have a kind of weird logic to them (he's a "brick made of porridge" because he's putting up a front of being strong, but he's worried that when it comes to it he'll fail, like a brick that looks useable but collapses when place with other bricks, and then the porridge mixes in with the mortar), but ones he mentions internally are left to stand there as a mystery, such as "laser through a pile of sheep".

Haruhi Suzumiya once commented in a Haruhi-chan short that playing tug of war with Kyon reminded her of the times when two women who claimed to have the same baby would tug on the child as a test. However, while the "winner" of that game would have to let go of the baby, instead of pulling it as hard as she can, Haruhi intended to win by holding onto Kyon. Kyon then commented that the difference Haruhi pointed out renders her speech pointless.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is also fond of these, usually something to the effect of: "Many people compare this scene to the chariot race in Ben-Hur. They'll say, 'Ben Hur was a great film. This film totally sucks.'"
In Track of the Moon Beast, we get the following delightful example while watching the local law enforcement:
When one movie shows the hero being tailed by a private helicopter.

Half-used, half-subverted on The West Wing when Donna opines that "a dry wit, like a fine martini, is best enjoyed..." and then realizes she's got nothing.
Another time Josh asked therapist Stanley Keyworth why his Post Traumatic Stress Disorder worked the way it did (music, inexplicably, made him relive getting shot).
In one episode Josh claims the scene he, Sam and Toby are currently in is similar to the one in The Godfather when Michael first proposes that he kill Sollozzo and McCluskey: "It's a lot like that scene, only not really." Then a minute later he decides it is like that scene after all. Nobody else really cares.

In Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, HK-47 tries to elucidate his consternation at the existence of his evil(er) knock-offs by comparing his situation to that of the Exile. The result is a cross between this and Metaphorgotten, and, as might be expected, it's hilarious. He draws a number of other comparisons between his vocation of assassination and the practices of various factions in the game; whether you find these similarities convincing will depend largely on whether you share the game's own cynicism about the Star Wars universe and its heroes.

During an arc in FoxTrot where Roger tries to write a spy novel, his main character is described as doing something with "the cat-like agility his name would imply, if foxes were cats"; the narrator then goes on a tangent about how said main character naturally knows the difference, given his Ph.D. in zoology (and six dozen other disciplines).

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has quite a few of these.
Perhaps the most famous is: "The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't."
Another contender is the description of the Nutri-Matic Drinks Synthesizer's output as "almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea". This might be one of the few rare cases where the dissimile is understandable, since Arthur had asked for tea.
Another example would be Ford Prefect's explanation of the origin of the universe, describing a situation where one would fill a conical ebony bathtub with sand, pull the plug and film the sand falling down the drain, then watching this film in reverse... which, he then states, has nothing at all to do with the origin of the universe, but is really fun to watch. Of course, he was blind-drunk during the telling of this.

Doctor Who: This happens to the Doctor a lot, usually when trying to convey concepts far beyond their companions' understanding.
The BBC's original introduction to "The Next Doctor" asked viewers to think of the perfect Victorian Christmas... but with Cybermen.
"The End of Time": When the Doctor attempts to explain the nature of a Time Lock:
The Eleventh Doctor, in particular, is prone to this, along with sister trope Metaphorgotten:
"The Time of Angels":
"The Vampires of Venice":
In "The Pandorica Opens" while explaining what the Cybermen do to people. "It's just like being an organ donor, except you're alive and sort of...screaming."
In "A Christmas Carol", when trying to convince Young Kazran that he's an appropriate "babysitter":
And again in the 2011 Comic Relief short "Space".
Twice in "The Curse of the Black Spot": While trying to describe the monster of the week, and explaining how the spaceship and the pirate ship can be in the same place.
By "The Doctor's Wife", he's stopped even feeling bad about it.
He actually manages to exploit the trope in "Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS".
Let's face it, it's Eleven's new catchphrase.
In the Eleventh Doctor novel Touched by an Angel, the Doctor says the Weeping Angels are attracted to Mark like a moth to a flame, and is then shocked to realise that this makes sense. "My analogies never make sense! I must write it down. Rory, write it down for me!"
"The Woman Who Fell to Earth": The Doctor describes the sonic screwdriver:

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series episode 4:
And also, "Ever since your voice changed, you've been like a totally different person! Well, actually, you've been like the same person, just with a totally different voice, but you know what I mean!"
"That's Kaiba's Duel Dome! You know, in my day, we didn't have Duel Domes. We had to play our card games out on the street. And our cards weren't even real cards! They were just rocks that we picked up off the ground. And then we threw them at each other! Come to think of it, it wasn't really card games at all. We just liked to throw rocks at each other—mostly at me. That's probably why I have so much self-loathing. (beat) Anyway, we should probably go over there."
"Just remember: you treat a Duel Disk just like a woman. You fasten it to your arm, and place trading cards inside it at regular intervals."
In the Cr@psule Monsters spinoff, when the gang is exploring some ruins and has to do some climbing Joey says "It's just like playing Tomb Raider, except it's actually fun!"

His review of Rise of the Triad actually had a dissimile which, in a bit of a Mind Screw fashion, still managed to serve as a perfectly cogent simile: "Like a man with both hands trapped in a gumball machine, (the game) was absolutely fuck-all to do with triads".

In The Other Guys, Allen tells Terry how he met his wife and adds that it's like that Meg Ryan movie. Terry can't think of any movies where Meg Ryan met a guy with poison ivy on his rectum. Later, Allen and his wife remember the movie: You've Got Mail, and both are certain that Tom Hanks had poison ivy in it.

Family Guy:
When Peter was thought to be lost at sea, Lois married Brian. After coming home and discovering the change, Chris remarked "This is like that sitcom where there's two dads, except no one's laughing. No, wait, it's the same."
"It's kind of like Bang the Drum Slowly, except the drum's a chick."
In the episode where Peter and Brian win a tour of the Pawtucket Brewery, Peter says, "It's like I died and went to Heaven. But then they realized that it wasn't my time, and so they sent me back to a brewery."

From his review of Army of Two: "you get to wear funky skull masks like it's Halloween every day, except that it's you giving out the candy, and the candy is bullets."
His review of Batman: Arkham City when describing Catwoman's abilities: "Mainly she plays like Batman making use of a few pole dancing lessons in her own combat and stealth sections, although she can cling to ceilings as well, just like real cat (that's been bitten by a radioactive spider)."
