ok, DT and Ishizu, Oxy is a line of cleaning products by some company. (And yes, my whole family hated the guy in the commercial).
An oxymoron is two words that don't seem to go together but do.
(clean dirt, tundering silence, cold fire, and the one Tails/Ivy Thorns said "stupid genius")

dude clean dirt does make sense without being an oxymoron really, if its not contaminated by bacteria or parasitic bugs, or radiation its clean dirt, dirt is actually sand mixed with organic material

Ok, you got me there, it just sounds like an oxymoron
