  10. I love questions like this because I always learn something in the process of answering them. I found this site that claims to be the largest list of oxymorons ever compiled:

    http://www.oxymoronlist.com/

    From this list I selected a few jewels:

    Virtual reality
    Doing nothing
    Jumbo shrimp is of course a classic
    Never again
    Only choice
    Quiet riot
    Sinfully good
    Thunderous silence
    Seriously funny
    Timeless moment
    Top Floor

    There’s a lot of good ones there for you to peruse.

    BTW I believe that army intelligence doesn’t qualify as an oxymoron; it is merely ironic.
