Oxymorons

Archive: 36 posts

ox?y?mo?ron–noun, plural ox?y?mo?ra  [ok-si-mawr-uh, -mohr-uh], ox?y?mor?ons. Rhetoric .
A figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect.

Or, in layman's terms, a contradictory statement. I find oxymorons to be interesting, and in some cases rather funny!

Do you have any good oxymorons you'd like to share?

Heres some examples: Jumbo shrimp, or freezer burn. get it? 		2011-05-02 03:37:00

Oxymoron itself is an oxymoron.
As in the word 'oxymoron'.

Oxy = Sharp
Moron = Blunt

3 years of Ancient Greek lessons paid off it seems. 		2011-05-03 20:43:00
