Errol Morris: OXYMORONS

Oxymorons. What are they? I grabbed a definition from the American Heritage Dictionary.

ox-y-mo-ron
A rhetorical figure in which incongruous or contradictory terms are combined, as in a deafening silence and a mournful optimist.

Well, I have my own example.

How about...

A nice person.
