Hyperbole

Hyperbole is an extreme exaggeration used to prove a point. It can highlight certain aspects that the author wishes to be noticeable about the subject being observed.

This video displays the use of hyperboles by displaying how addicting Facebook can be. It uses exaggerated habits to demonstrate the affects of too much social networking. The teen of this video is so obsessed with Facebook that she begins to apply actions done in Facebook to real life. Through these excessive displays, it shows how Facebook can come to control one's life and puzzle the people around oneself.
