Sarcasm would be my answer.

A - Metaphor compares things - this isn't comparing a person to anything. It's more of an observation of a situation.

B - Paradox requires the argument to be sound, yet concludes in senseless. Without further information, we can't assume "you don't have a personality" to be a sound argument, because everyone has a personality.

C - Pun requires some type of word play, which this has none.

D - This is the most likely. We expect everyone to have a personality. Someone making a comment like this sentence is suggesting that the person does not, likely as an attempt at insulting their behavior as bland or boring.

What is Tom's "compensation" for the "trial" of having his tooth pulled? What does this
algol13

Answer: Tom was compensated for his loss of a tooth by finding an entirely new way to spit.  

But all trials bring their compensations. As Tom wended to school after breakfast, he was the envy of every boy he met because the gap in his upper row of teeth enabled him to expectorate in a new and admirable way.
