        I was being sarcastic; its fucking mental to brag about how easily your sister resorts to violence.

              Hyperbole is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech.

              Yes, It would be less mental because I am suggesting that the person doesn’t necessarily mean it literally. You see sometime people say things that isn’t true for dramatic effect.

                Happily we no longer need to wonder as op confirmed this was not hyperbole.

                An interesting thing to post to someone who declared they were being sarcastic. You know, when I said aomething that wasn’t true for dramatic effect?
