word puzzle

Ok, if you're a regular listener to "Says You!", you should recuse yourself.

Everybody else: can you think of a one-word oxymoron? That is, a single word that within its own definition, contradicts itself? I'm not looking for a word like "cleave", "let" or "sanction", which have different senses which are more or less contradictory.

Says You had one, which is good, but I've got my own. Come up with either, both, or one of your own and win a... gold star, I guess. Something.


You have, let's say, a day. Go.
