An epic oxymoron if ever heard one...

5-3 and 4-2, outside the context of mathematics the statement 'same difference' might as well be in another language.

'Same difference' is used when one person cares about the difference between two things and the another either doesn't care or doesn't see it.
'can i have the blue one?' 'we don't have blue, but we have it in the lovely cyan' 'same difference' and while i use this phrase often, that's the only example i can think of ... and it's not all that great.

But what's the difference between a difference?
