A side-by-side contradiction. would that be two morons whose pictures are superimposed on a bottle of oxyclean? Whether I agreed or disagreed, they'd still be two morons, no shift in polarity... I suppose. A mind boggler.

Ha! I do love your take on this one Lin, perhaps after a few OxyContin’s this one would make instant sense, it’s designed to flip the readers imagination, and it certainly did to yours, cheers David

This is very creative David, a clever play on words, you first liner is an oxymoron of juxtaposition... two great poetic techniques.. nicely done..

Thanks so much S.O. I’m delighted someone else seen it too, strangely enough I was reading an article about the Earth‘s magnetic field, some scientists believe it’s about to flip in the very near future, of course it sent me off on a different tangent to see if I could actually flip it into a paradoxical monoku! Hopefully I did, cheers David
