:::What about it? I think we all use metaphors sometimes. But that doesn't mean everything we say is a metaphor. The question is one of context - does the context indicate that the passage is meant to be a metaphor? Besides - it wasn't God himself saying that - it was Peter talking about God, and the passage in question was about the end of the world, not about creation (2 Peter 3:8).

Young Earth Creationism isn't the conservative viewpoint. It's the religious fundamentalist viewpoint. YEC contradicts every branch of science ranging from geology to astrophysics.
