Organic Metal
hahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhahaha
Your bones are made of metal silly, calcium is a metal
It's deposits of inorganic calcium salts, interwoven with connective tissue. I think it's safe to say it's neither organic nor metal.
Much like the band Trivium.

Common sense
I will have you know that that is not an oxymoron. Everyone has common sense but was does it tell you? It tells you things like the earth is flat. So common sense is later replaced with common knowledge(i.e. the stove is hot).

back to topic: now then
To be honest your post confused me.

For a lot of people I know it seems to be an oxymoron, they have no sense so it's not really common. Actually, the fact they have no sense is common but I digress.

Oh and an unused stove is cold, so your example kinda sucks.

For me it's when people use "stupidly" as an adjective, for example: "that's stupidly clever!" is something I've heard quite a few times.

ox⋅y⋅mo⋅ron  
A figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in ?cruel kindness? or ?to make haste slowly.

So which one do you know is your favorite?
Military intelligence. (I live in North America so that might tell you why.)
/sigh...the military actually has some bright young people filling its ranks.
Indeed there are, but I've seen plenty of times where Military Intelligence gets it wrong, so very wrong, and the people on the receiving end of AFI's SNAFUs would most certainly claim that "military intelligence" is an oxymoron. But when AFI gets it right...

Personally I think the "ALL NATURAL artificial FLAVORS" is a funny oxymoron.

Also, beloved sweetheart bastard.
That sounds familiar but I can't remember where I heard it

Anyway:
Common sense
You do GCSE English Literature? It's in the peom Havisham by Carol Ann Duffy.
GOD DON'T REMIND ME.

Also Bittersweet is a good oxymorn.

I got another:Lawful Evil.
In the same series: Chaotic good!
Both of you are wrong.
it goes, ETHICS, MORALS.
Also, I have never played DnD, I can't believe no one called you out yet.

God dammit, people.
It's not that hard a concept to understand.

EDIT: I was going to add that when you use the actual meaning of the word then there can really be no oxymorons.
but... I have to so Epic Fail.
