oxymorons! loads and loads of them!
yes. i'm induced in a state of psychological contradictions.
But before you make a federal case out of it, let's start with
the fundamentals. DEFINITIONS!
To those of you still pondering over my title;
"oxymoron" isn't a pimple gel nor an insolent obnoxious creep.
neither is it a person who is too dumb to inhale oxygen.
its simply defined as a rhetorical figure in which an epigrammatic effect is created by the conjunction of incongruous or contradictory terms.
yeah, that's a mouthful.
we see it in the newspapers, books, and shakespearic novels, etc.
So, i've been making up some oxymorons and if you're in the mood, do add some to comments.
i know this is kinda spastic, but i'm gonna rate them!
- a deafening silence [very CLICHE]
- a mournful optimist
- gentle restlessness
- cruel kindness ~boring!?
- humanitarian invasion
- constant variable
- genuine imitation
- funky white guy [h.a.h.a]
- conservative liberal
- And faith unfaithful kept him falsely true [vicious cycle]
- accidental propaganda
think contradictory people!
