Your favorite oxymoron?

[Danny Ocean]

In this case Great is a reference to the size and impact. So it is not an oxymoron.

Well I say it's a reference to emotion. Now what'cha gonna do, huh!?

Conservative Republican. Oh snap, politics!

Isn't that a tautology rather than an oxymoron, if we're going for jokes here?

There is no real Conservative movement in the USA. The whole spectrum is Liberal, including the republicans.

They are conservative with a small 'c', though.

 

[David DeMoss]

To the old standards already mentioned ("military intelligence"; "honest politician" etc.) I would add
Creationist Science
Professional Film Critic
and my personal favorite, the U.S. Department of Justice

[Aunel]

My favorite was always "military intelligence", what is yours?

The military Intelligence
two words combined that can't make sense!

OT:
"you play guitar right"
"no I play BASS guitar"
(not sure if it's a true oxymoron)

 

[PlayingOpossum]

That old classic, "Jumbo Shrimp."

I work as a meat-cutter/fishmonger and the two sizes of our cocktail shrimp are "Extra Jumbo" and "Super Colossal."

I'm sorry for the non-sequiter post, but your avatar is... mesmerizing. So many blob-like characters... so fast...

Well, I applaud you for such an excellent .gif avatar.

 

[Adventurer2626]

Large diet soda. I guess you gotta cut back somewhere, right?

Necessary evil. If it's necessary, is it really evil?

 

[Kiju]

Mine would be...humane.

A term derived for doing something with human qualities. Funny, considering humans are responsible for the genocide of entire species just to flex their dominance on the world.

And yet it means to do something with mercy. I don't think that being human is being merciful...so yeah, there's my favorite oxymoron, even though most people don't consider it one. :\

 

[Crystal Cuckoo]

Unconceited Mac user

 

[Dragunai]

My favourite is "British Judicial System" considering the fact the British legal system is the worst on the planet resulting in more peados, murderers and rapists walking around with slapped wrists than is reasonable.

 

[Dango]

When people say "It's cold as Hell." I always giggle a little.

 

[Jezzascmezza]

White gangster.
Wait, is that one?
