What's your favorite oxymoron ?
 

At the zoo in Victoria, BC:

While still trying to decide whether to call you on a technicality re albino peacock being an oxymoron when it is a factual statement...

... I learned the word from a rather cheeky tutor.
Who told us that the correct pronunciation was ox-ZIMMER-on. Not knowing any different, I used that for years. I'm still hesitant over using it in conversation, likewise ZOOG-ma and hy-PER-bol-ee. So thanks Jerry, you fucked me right over there.

Oh, nice cock btw.

Yes SG, I know.

Military intelligence is the usual example, but I also like puns and quirks.

In that case I give you premature ejaculation.

You certainly do.

Oxymoron?

Honest politician.

You're welcome.

Jumbo Shrimp.

Civil War.

American Cuisine (snicker)

Friendly fire

oooo...that stings!

I nearly changed it to British Cuisine (the way I first heard it) but it conforms to a widely held belief that is so outdated and unfair that I couldn't bring myself to do it. So you got it instead, even though I know it's not true.

Even if I'm saying this to Ms Cheese Dip Quote :p:

"Yeah, no."

Heard in conversation all the time. I don't know about the "oxy" part, but every time I hear this I think "moron".

Hee hee, I've gotten into the habit of saying "yeah yeah" instead of just the single yeah, to indicate stronger agreement.

Because of regional ethnicity in the U.S. It is true that there really isn't an "American Cuisine"

No-but-yeah-but-no-but
Long clip - you'll get the picture quite quickly.
