The UNofficial Oxymoron thread

Think up some hilarious, unexpected, or completely random oxymorons.

For the illiterate that don't know what an oxymoron is, it's a phrase made up of two words that have the opposite meanings, like:

Jumbo Shrimp

or

Microsoft Works :D

So, bring the oxymorons on!

(note: Mods, if this has been done before, I'm sorry.)

An oxymoron is two contradictory things, doesn't have to be 2 words.

Oh, not just two words! Cool. Not what I was taught :(

Well I guess it is normally 2 words, but I've seen it done with more.

Silver fixes things.

Generally, you want to use two words, but by definition, you can use as many words as you want.

Clean toilet.

In most cases, it's cleaner than your kitchen sink. And that's where you get the water you drink from. How's that for an oxymoron?

I knew someone would correct me on this. I questioned it myself, and I'm glad I drink bottled water now.
