Hyperbole 

Hyperbole is used when you want to over exaggerate a statement or claim. Yet do not want said statement to be taken seriously.
An example of this would be saying “Andy kys nigger” this would be hyperboling my annoyance at you as you can tell by my referring to you as a negro when you are not. This shows my statement should not be take no seriously. However if i were to say “Josh you retarded nigger kys” that would not be a hyperbole as josh is retarded, while not a negro he acts like 1 and should swiftly end his life by chocking on my dick.
