''[http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ Hyperbole and a Half]'' is a hybrid blog/[[Journal Comic]] by Allie Brosh. The journal and its attendant comics detail the life--past and present--of its writer, in a surreal, sketchy style. The humor is random, the stories even more so, and the comics, sketchy as they are, somehow have a [[Narm Charm|distinct appeal.]]
Read it [http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ here.] Or click the link above. Either works. Also see the wiki [https://web.archive.org/web/20151105151828/http://hyperboleandahalf.wikia.com/wiki/Hyperbole_and_a_Half_Wiki here.] Allie also created a forum where her readers could gather, though it has spun off into its own community only tangentially related, you can find it [https://web.archive.org/web/20130928042457/http://forum.verysrs.com/index.php here].

* [[The Straight Man]]: Boyfriend, almost to the point of [[The Comically Serious]].
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: The artwork. She often draws the same illustration ten times just to get it to look the ''right'' kind of terrible. The effort shows - the poses, expressions and so on are often ''perfect'' in a way a genuinely sucky artist could never produce on a regular basis.
* [[The Wiki Rule]]: After Allie announced her plans to have "mandatory sex party" become an actual term, after seeing the only result on google for it being her own blog, no one was surprised when [https://web.archive.org/web/20130422013151/http://mandatorysexparty.wikispaces.com/ a wiki was eventually made.]
* [[Testosterone Poisoning]]: In "How To Make Showering Awesome Again". The post is full of ridiculous shower products, one being a "Shower Hammer", which works by ''bleeding the germs off.''
