A person who asks is a fool for 5 minutes,
But a person who never asks is a fool for life

An oxymoron is a pair of words that shouldn't make sense when put together, but if you think really hard they actually do make sense.

For example:
- Jumbo Shrimp

The word 'shrimp' is supposed to imply smallness, so jumbo shrimp doesn't make sense. But in fact, a jumbo shrimp is just a relatively large species of that particular crustacean.
