Merriam-Webster definition of oxymoron: http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=oxymoron ": a combination of contradictory or incongruous words (as cruel kindness); broadly : something (as a concept) that is made up of contradictory or incongruous elements" A few "popular" ones: "honest politician" "Microsoft Works" and, according to my English teacher, "maths enrichment" :-).
