Well achshuellly what you mean is hyberpolic. You see the two old men inside some random college discussing English had a fight and now it’s offensive to say hyperbole cause one of the guys died and the other won
As far as I can tell, “hyperpolic” is a typo, and you meant “hyperbolic”, which kinda fits, but it would be “contains a hyperbolic statement,” rather than “contains hyperbole.” It would be less clear, though, since “hyperbolic” can refer to either “hyperbole” or “hyperbola”.
Meanwhile hyperbole refers only to a figure of speech and not potentially an open curve with two branches.
