Feeling paradox

It is when a person feels he should do something, yet he wants to do the opposite. Or when his body is telling him to do something, but he doesn't want to obey it. Examples when you are hungry or thirsty even though you are full. or when you are dead tired, yet you don't feel like sleeping.

Man 1: Woooa, i am really tired
Man 2: Why don't you go to sleep
Man 1: I don't feel like it
Man 2: Dude, you are having a feeling paradox

Bootstrap Paradox

The Bootstrap Paradox is a theoretical paradox of time travel that occurs when an object or piece of information sent back in time becomes trapped within an infinite cause-effect loop in which the item no longer has a discernible point of origin, and is said to be “uncaused” or “self-created”.

A time traveller who was a big fan of Beethoven goes back in time to 18th century Germany to search for Beethoven for an autograph. Upon reaching the destination, the time traveller cannot find Beethoven anywhere, not even Beethoven's family have heard of him. Not being able to bear the thought of a world without Beethoven's music, the time traveller coincidently has all of Beethoven's sheet music, he copies it up and publishes it. The time traveller has become Beethoven and the timeline resumes as usual, this is what we call a Bootstrap Paradox.

Paradox Duplicate

A duplicate created as a result of time travel. When one object travels to another time where that same object also exists, then two of the exact same object occupy the same time. The popular theory is that one of the paradox duplicates is doomed to destruction as a result of the universe attempting to correct this violation of the reality matrix of existence. More pressing is the belief that, were the duplicates to come in contact with one another, it would violate the very basic law of physics that 'no two objects can occupy the same space at the same time', and, thus, unmake the universe.

"That's why i didn't want us to meet, Fry. We're paradox duplicates. The more we stayed away from each other, the better chance we had of staying alive. I guess I was wrong...(cough)"

Orphan's Paradox

A child who's raised without nurturing love will behave aggressively towards others to the point of pushing away those who could give love to that child, thereby keeping the child in an unloving environment.

As an orphan I acted out because I wanted a family. No family would adopt me because I acted out. I was trapped in the orphan's paradox.

Idiot Paradox

A theory that states that the more stupid a person is, the more intelligent they are likely to think they are. This is caused by their incredibly narrow perspective of the world making them think that they know a hell of a lot. For someone to understand that they are stupid requires a certain kind of enlightenment - that they know relatively little - that is unavailable to stupid people.

Therefore, it is impossible for a truly stupid person to be able to admit that they are stupid.

Did you read that book he just wrote? It's too bad the Idiot Paradox won't allow him to realize that it'd be better suited as a toilet paper dispenser.

L Paradox

When you hookup at a girl's place and she has a used condom wrapper next to her bed. You not totally sure she a thot because you know she uses condoms, but with that logic you would conclude that every girl who did not have an empty condom wrapper next to their bed was a total hoe.

Yo I banged this girl last night, no wrapper next to the bed; she's either total freak or my future wife...damn that L Paradox

unemployability paradox

When every posting for a job in a given field requires several years of experience, making it impossible to get a job in that field unless you already have one.

Even Applebee's won't hire a bartender who hasn't worked somewhere else for at least 2 years. This is an impenetrable unemployability paradox!
