Günther Paradox

The Güther Paradox describes the following situation:

You know your neighbour Günther for a couple of years now. He's pretty chill and you meet him often. you never had any problems with each other. One day you come home from work and as you step out of your car you see Günther shitting in your Mailbox. He's staring at you but doesn't seem to care, that you're watching him. What do you do?
This Paradox is used in modern Psychology to analyze the difference between the reactions of women and men.
"Did you know, that most men would shit in Günther's Mailbox while aggressively staring at him?"

"I mean I would shit in his Mailbox as well, but people would stare at him?"
"Yeah, Kind of crazy how weird the answers to the Günther paradox are."

Paradox pressure

The urge one feels to buy games and/or, more often, DLC produced by the game company Paradox Interactive. This is usually felt the most during steam sales.
Paradox player: "Yeah, I just bought all the DLC for HOI4, so y'know"
Normal person: "Wow, how much was it?"
Paradox player: "Oh, y'know, just £37 in the steam sale"
Normal person: "Isn't that a bit much? I mean, you must've been under that Paradox pressure."
Paradox player: " *scoff*, you're a bit too much"

The Lumi Paradox

The Lumi Paradox is a paradox where a person is trapped between the borders of cringe and based.
If a person is cringe, it is considered based to dislike them. However, if said person dislikes themselves, does that then mean they are based? If that is the case then is it still based to dislike them, or is it now cringe?
Person 1: Wow, Kevin is so cringe.
Person 2: I know right.
Person 1: Oh, you dislike him too? Thats based.
Person 2: Yeah, everyone dislikes Kevin.
Kevin: You know, I dislike myself too!
Person 1: That's kinda based.
Person 2: Wait no, you just invoked The Lumi Paradox!
Blackhole: Brr.

Wassermann Paradox

The act of simultaneously ejaculating and soiling oneself during intercourse. The "paradox" to which the name refers is the question as to whether one should cease the act of coitus in order to go to the bathroom and defecate, or to continue and risk the consequences.
"I'm going to need a mop and bucket, I may have suffered from the Wassermann Paradox."

Hipster paradox

The definition of a hipster is that they are nit and do not like mainstream things. But since hipsters are now mainstream, then they must like mainstream things.

The Hangover Paradox

A result of the hype surrounding the 2009 movie The Hangover.

Everybody who first paid to see it expected it to be terrible. They were all surprised by how good it was.

These people recommended it to their friends, thereby hyping it up.

Their friends went to see it, expecting it to be brilliant, only to be disappointed by how it wasn't as good as they were expecting.

= The Hangover Paradox.
Jim: Hey Bob, you wanna see a movie? How about "The Hangover"?
Bob: Sure, but it looks pretty crap.

Bob: Dude, that movie was so much better than I thought it would be!
Jim: Yeah, I'm gonna tell Jon to see it!

Jim: Jon, you've gotta see The Hangover! It's awesome!
Jon: Thanks man, I'll go see it this evening!

Jon: That was pretty disappointing. Not as good as I thought it would be.
Jim: Huh, I thought it was better than I was expecting. Guess I created The Hangover Paradox.

time paradox

Also known as the coolest and most insensitive way to break up ever conceived by man. A sex move that's notoriously hard to pull off. You'll need a window in your bedroom, on the ground floor, a cupboard for a friend to hide in, and a girl.

Start doing the girl doggy-style, facing the window, and then have your friend quietly sneak out of the cupboard and trade places with you without her noticing. Then exit the room, walk in front of the window, and wave to her. Bonus points if you're still naked when you do this.
"Dude, I finally managed to pull off a time paradox! She'll probably never speak to me again, but it was worth it!"
