Stylistic Devices
What if I said, 'It feels like I walked 1,000 miles today' or 'I'm going to die if I have to sit through one more meeting.'

But, if we look at these sentences figuratively, we know that the first sentence signifies someone who is exhausted, and the second reflects a person's lack of patience, attention, and overall boredom. Both of these sentences use stylistic devices to help the reader understand the emotion of the speaker and imagery of the idea being conveyed.
