My very favourite word in the whole world is oxymoron - it's so much fun to use! And there are many out there - this website has kindly compiled 35 of them for me, and I have grabbed them and displayed them here for you to peruse at your leisure. :) Oh, and I also added a picture because it looks very sad without pictures on my blog. And because I do love this picture. It makes me laugh. :D
And yes, these are American, so if you don't understand one, please... um... well I guess look it up. I wouldn't know. http://www.c4vct.com/kym/humor/oxymoron.htm
