No 'Yall, that is not a moronic ox. Oxymorons are tandem words or phrases that are ironically or humorously contradictive. I'll put some up for fishing; and otherwise  . You guys put some up; for fishing or whatever. - jumbo shrimp (a good example - jumbo is big and shrimp are small; so how can there be jumbo shrimp?) - tiddy bowl (I don't think so) - Os has one on (example of a non-fishing related oxymoron, false saying , and pun) - pulling plugs (they pull you - I figure you got this now) - snagless sinkers - pro cure - Treaty rights! - anchor puller - waterproof waders - tackle box (make up your mind) - old fart (at least not when it's windy - hey, there's a pun there too ) - new and improved original formula baitscent - got the skunk out of the box (a few puns there too  ) - perfect water - nice smoker [ 11-19-2001: Message edited by: RT i ]

There are more than I thought! Good ones. Are there more? I think so . - hot fishing (actually cold water) - old new(s) - athletic Stewy - fishing guide (more like 'organic rodholder supervisor' - jk) - nice fish (actually 'mean predator') Plenty more. RT

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

Hey Stew, Oregon's pro football and baseball teams have never won a world............hey, wait a minute. Maybe some day, when Oregon becomes a state, you'll get franchises of your own too.
