Oxymoron alert!

I was innocently channel surfing on my tv this morning, and I came across an infomercial for an iron. I need a new iron, so I paused for a moment. They were touting the special features that made it wonderful for delicate fabrics when the man said that it makes "hot dry steam." Dry steam?

And no, it wasn't merely a slip of the tongue by an over-enthusiastic salsperson. The words "hot, dry steam" appeared on the screen on the list of features.

Morons.
