oxymoron
An oxymoron is a figure of speech that combines contradictory terms. Oxymorons appear in a variety of contexts, including inadvertent errors such as ground pilot and literary oxymorons crafted to reveal a paradox.
Uttara Gupta: Hahahaha! Let me repeat myself, it's MY wall!
Rohan: Thats an oxymoron
As you might notice the usage of MY, which is a form of the possessive case of I used as an attributive adjective, with Wall which refers to the very public Facebook wall is quite moronic and in this case oxymornonic.

Only choice, cold sweat, grounders in space, slow burn, painfully beautiful, sweet agony, amongst others.
The examples above were taken from a romantic context, more concretely fromThe 100, when Clarke and Bellamy tacitly professed their love for each other, but there are tons of more examples.
