The joke is that they were met with an extinction event that they couldn't survive through and now do not exist.

The Charizard Paradox

Share definition
The Charizard Paradox is a phenomenon in Pokémon and similar franchises where a character has a limited number of “types” it can have and is forced to exclude certain important aspects from its typing in order for equally important aspects to be included in its typing.

This phenomenon was originally named by Pokemon YouTuber MandJtv in his video titled The Charizard Paradox.
Guy 1: wait this thing isn’t evil type? But it’s super evil. That’s like it’s whole thing.

Guy 2: well it’s also a ghost plant thing. It’s ghost plant type.

Guy 1: but it being evil is like equally important as it being a ghost.

Guy 2: it’s also equally important that it’s a plant.

Guy 1: damnit it’s The Charizard Paradox.

The Janet Paradox

When Julayne and me disclose to everyone that our Relationship was a lie. I.e. we were never a couple. We were just certifying our acting abilities in Hell.
If someone is getting too much over on Julayne's we introduce them to the Janet Paradox. Pair of Drs. Pair of Docs, Doc Martins. Air Where? Every Where.

The stepford paradox is an ironic situation that occurs when life seems very rythmic and mundane day in and day out that it starts to seem odd. Liken to, if not insane.
The “Jones” are cutting their grass at 7:43am just like they have on every Tuesday morning for the last 7 years. It makes me feel like I’m living in The “Stepford Paradox”

The Jew Paradox
A condition that happens whenever tipping is involved.

If you don’t tip, people think you’re cheap.

If you ask for tips, people think you’re greedy.

Either way, you lose.
Example:
“Bro, if I don’t tip i look like a jew, but if the restaurant asks for tips they’re greedy. That’s the jew paradox.”

The sociological law that states the harder a person tries to appear "authentic" on social media, the more performative their behavior actually becomes. It refers to the irony that looking "effortlessly messy" (e.g., photo dumps, crying selfies, no-makeup posts) often requires more staging, curation, and editing than a polished photo.
Her "I just woke up" selfie took 45 minutes to get the lighting right. That is the Performality Paradox in action.

"A chud can never be lonely as there is an abundance of chuds in the world and they are united against foids; however by definition a chud is to have a lonely existence, so can a chud truly exist?"
- Modern Philosopher
"Dude, you might not have a valentine but you're not a chud, ever heard of the Chud Paradox?"
