OXYMORONS

 

I always did poorly in grammar so if you think an oxymoron has to do someone who is not very smart, don't feel bad, that doesn't make an oxymoron. But lucky for both of us we found this funny list of oxymorons so that we can not only be better informed but smile while we do it. Have a great day!
