This is The Sex

The word for today is "Juxtaposition."
From the Merriam-Webster Online dictionary:
Pronunciation: "j&k-st&-p&-'zi-sh&n
Function: noun
Etymology: Latin juxta near + English position -- more at JOUST
: the act or an instance of placing two or more things side by side; also : the state of being so placed

Here's an example of poor use of Juxtaposition:

Why place such terrible music "side by side" with one of the most beautiful cars of the last...forever.
