'Pretty ugly' - can it be both - its either pretty or ugly ....

Re: oxymorons

There is an Oxymorons thread in the Games section here ...

http://www.over50sforum.com/showthread.php?t=5461

(the explanation of an oxymoron is shown in the first post of that thread)

Further examples may be added to that thread
