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.

spammer's paradox

Spamming itself may be defined as the abuse of electronic messaging systems, cybernetic or otherwise (including junk faxing, for example), for the purpose of sending unsolicited bulk messages. In order for spamming to succeed, a disproportionately large quantity must be delivered successfully to its recipients, or there will be an insignificant return. Unfortunately for the spammer, it is exactly that large quantity that renders any individual piece of spam less effective: the moment a large enough number of the same piece of spam is sent, the message becomes identifiable as spam by anti-spamware, forcing the spammer to start from scratch with a new spam tactic. This is the so-called "spammer's paradox".
Good example: the mass E-mailing of online pharmacy advertising created a spammer's paradox in many large corporations because it only took two instances of the same spam reported to their IT departments for the spamblocker immediately to delete the rest.

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!

The COD Paradox

When change is asked for an element and then the element is changed too much, so the individuals who originally requested change are now complaining and want to go back.
When Black Ops 2 came out people wanted something different, when Advanced Warfare came out, people wanted to go back, classic example of The Cod Paradox...
