Sketch a Day, Day 139

This evening, Allison, Michelle, and I went to a chili cook off hosted by the parents of one of our students. Michelle entered her chili, which was quite popular (but didn’t win, sadly). It got me thinking about another of the literary terms we’ve been teaching the kids, hyperbole. This seemed appropriate for tonight’s comic.

Today’s comic arrives a little early due to time spent hanging out at Dunkin Donuts while my wife visited her nutritionist (there’s nothing at all wrong with that sentence). It continues this week’s theme of illustrating literary terms. Today’s term is, as you can see, oxymoron.
