I recently saw two examples of oxymoronic signs using words that cancel each other out.
The first was at the Primm Valley turnoff heading south on U.S. Interstate 15 to Los Angeles at the state line between California and Nevada. It was a marquee for Buffalo Bill's Resort and Casino, something like "Mini Maxi Breakfast!"
I was driving, of course, so I couldn't reach into my back pocket for my camera. But maybe if you take the turnoff, it'll still be there.
The second was a poster at Dairy Queen in the Westfield Oakridge Mall in San Jose. Here ... take a look -->
Have YOU ever experienced a frozen hot chocolate? Hey, if you burn your mouth, at least you can cool it off instantly! How 'bout that.
I wonder who spends their time thinking up phrases like these?
