Daily Quick Break: December 30, 2007: Oxymorons: A collection of funny oxymorons

Every day InnocentEnglish.com posts a new funny or cool Quick Break. The Quick Break section has today’s quick break plus previous ones so you can browse through any you missed.

A friend sent me this list of oxymorons. Some are literally oxymorons and others are more a commentary on failings of companies, etc.  There are some pretty funny ones here, and a few real gems. Enjoy.
