Don't bother trying to scrape together an argument from Wikipedia articles on subjects you've only just discovered, either. For what it's worth, I think "Definite possibility" is a rather poor example of an oxymoron, and is more redundant language than paradoxical or contradictory. No surprise that part of the article is conspiciously marked [Citation Needed].


there is absolutely nothing redundant about "definite possibility", its a phrase using terms that contradict each other, aka oxymoron.

"pretty much the exact same thing" equates to "almost exactly". you suggested earlier that "almost exactly" is not an oxymoron, but wikipedia and a few other sites like this one say otherwise:

I suppose they are semantic oxymorons, but we're talking about logical oxymorons. The semantic contradiction isn't particularly relevant because only someone deeply autistic or downright robotic would fail to understand them. If you can't understand what "almost exactly" or "pretty much exactly" mean (or the concept of how something can approach exactitude) then you're an utter idiot. They aren't paradoxical, they are not logically oxymoronic. They also aren't inadvertent oxymorons, because again they are not due to sloppy or imprecise language.

(Although I should say that "almost exactly" is actually nothing to do with grammatical modality at all. That was nonsense.)

Bukem is always quality...plays a good mix of GLR and similar artists...still maintains the more atmospheric ID&B sound & prob always will. RITM really mixes up their costumes, but tend to play their own productions and remixes...musically, their act could use a little more variety, but act wise, they are unmatched and never to be missed. I've seen them a dozen or so times and they never disappoint...but IMHO, their shows tend to make more sense when you are under the influence of your favorite_____!!! ...just sayin.
