Alert the grammar grinches
I may be wrong but technically I don't think those are oxymorons, redundant maybe. Oxymorons I've been told are words that seem to counter each other like:

"military intelligence" is the classic one not that our military are not intelligent, some of my best friends are military
Is there an English major in the house?I don't know this for sure, I have a worthless art degree
