LEAF Paradox

The strategy of trying to achieve the improved mental wellbeing of students through the imposition of rigorous academic load, tireless material-reading, restless assignments, and endless essays.
Teacher: We are living through difficult times, so don't forget to have some off-screen time purely dedicated to relaxing and doing nothing. Also, until the next class, read the chapter, submit the weekly essay, complete the quiz and try to answer all the questions I will post.
Student: Thanks for this LEAF Paradox, I am gonna drown myself in the kitchen sink instead.

Britannian paradox

The britannian paradox is a historic situation where in a Roman britannian governor uses the entire britannian Roman army to attack Rome, but while doing so leaves Britannia to rot.

When this happens he loses all his support back home and can't afford to pay his large army(which is the only thing giving him the ability to take Rome).
The britannian paradox played out often, but as Hegel said, all we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history.
