    I had an intensely boring day at work on Tuesday so I sat in the meetings with nothing but oxymorons on my mind. I wrote some down.

    Silent scream.
    Microscopically gigantic.
    Conscientious procrastination.
    Successful failure.
    Genuinely artificial.

    Have you ever thought of a really great oxymoron? Share it here.
