Imagery -- a grouping of words which appeal to your senses.

For example,

The teenager's face had oil dripping from his forehead, and acne erupting from each swollen, red pore. His bodily odor smelled of perspiration and old laundry. His greasy hair wettened your hands when you touched it, and the taste of his kiss was like stale doritos and powerade. Very unpleasant.

Hyperbole -- an exaggeration which demonstrates significance.

For example,

My mom's going to kill me if I show her this test!

Irony -- implies the opposite of what is said

For example,

Adults are so childish!
