What the...................
A metaphor is used to compare two things without using the words 'as' or 'like' in the sentence.
Example: He is such a pig - that sentence compares two things the boy and the pig and no words such are mentioned with 'as or like' therefore it is a metaphor
I believe the correct answer is D. humorous and informal.
You can see in the excerpt that the narrator is talking about him/herself in a humorous manner by mentioning his/her eccentricities such as 'mismatched socks' etc. The tone is very light and funny, so A, B, and C would be incorrect answers.
