My Favourite Oxymorons . . .

November 6th 2009 04:31
Oxymoron
Oxymorons.

For those unfamiliar with the term - basically it's a figure of speech which combines two normally contradictory terms.

OK - so Government Worker probably doesn't count - nor does Airline Food but I do have a few favourites which continue to tickle my fancy - if you'd care to add.


1) Found Missing
2) Good Grief
3) Small Crowd
4) Butt Head
5) Clear Misunderstanding

And my favourite (tongue in cheek) Microsoft Works - yes I've love my Mac . . .

I've always loved Moronic Oxes, hm

Military Intelligence
Benevolent Dictator
European Unity (ah, tongue in cheek#
Texas Wine #oho, I'm gonna get it for that one#
Natural Blond
and my personal favorite,
Honest Government #tongue in cheek?)

I suspect I'm in trouble for most of these but that's the way things go. Don't write me, write your editor. TeeHee
