Hello... Check out this awesome Oxymoron paragraph....!!!
The oxymoron has also been called
"the show-off" figure, one that gives voice to life's inherent
conflicts and incongruities.
"The true beauty of
oxymorons," says Richard Watson Todd, "is that, unless we sit back
and really think, we happily accept them as normal English."
Todd illustrates his point in the following passage:
It was an open secret that the company had used a paid
volunteer to test the plastic glasses. Although they were made using
liquid gas technology and were an original copy that looked almost
exactly like a more expensive brand, the volunteer thought that they were pretty
ugly and that it would be simply impossible for the general public
to accept them. On hearing this feedback, the company board was clearly
confused and there was a deafening silence. This was a minor
crisis and the only choice was to drop the product line.
But then
all of that may be old news to you.
