A very recent form of paradox based on the character from Rick and Morty named Mr. Meeseeks
It uses the theme of the episode to describe a situation in which someone is summoned for a task who then summons another of their kind to help with that task only for the other to summon yet another, ultimately resulting in a slue of unnecessary copies all trying to eliminate one problem. this came from the plot of the episode being that Jerry was having trouble trying to golf and the Mr Meeseeks that was summoned to help tried getting another Meeseeks to help him, which then resulted in another Meeseeks being summoned to help that Meeseeks help the other Meeseeks help Jerry, and so on and so forth.

Chris: You know bullyhunters right?
June: Yeah, why?
Chris: Well what if a bullyhunter kills the bully, but calls another bullyhunter to kill the bullyhunter, and then that bullyhunter feels bullied, so they summon another one
June: Jesus, Chris, stop with The Meeseeks Paradox

A bar or club that only lets in regulars. Only a few bars are true paradoxes. Others instead only restricts their audience to regulars on certain weekdays, or between certain times - or a combination of both.
Bouncer: "Sorry, we only let in regulars today. You're not going in."
Non-regular A: "What? How can you be a regular without being let in regularly? This bar is a paradox"
Non-regular B: "Yeah, fucking Paradox Bar"

C: "Wanna go down to the Havana Club?"
D: "Nah, we'll never get in - it's a Paradox Bar"
Non-regular A: "What? How can you be a regular without being let in regularly? This bar is a paradox"
Non-regular B: "Yeah, fucking Paradox Bar"

C: "Wanna go down to the Havana Club?"
D: "Nah, we'll never get in - it's a Paradox Bar"

Any problem with a Microsoft computer system caused by an inadvertent reboot that can only be fixed for some reason by rebooting again.
My power went out and kicked my desktop. It was all messed up. I rebooted it and now it's clean. It's the fucking Gates Paradox.

This refers to the phenomenon of gay males having more success attracting women than straight males do. This is paradoxical as, obviously, a gay male has no interest in the women they monopolize away from straight males.

Sherlock's Paradox is a paradox discovered by the iconographic detective Sherlock Holmes in a scene from a set of unpublished notes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The notes were put of for auction in 1988 by Conan Doyle's grandson to benefit NORML.
In the unpublished scene, Holmes and his trusted companion Dr. Watson are sharing a pipe while in Arabia. The bulk of the conversation revolves around the pipe being made of glass and employing "... a devilishly clever construction by which the pungent smoke is filtered through water ...". Hence the term sherlock for the type of water pipe which resembles the regular pipe of Sherlock Holmes.
The paradox originates in a comment where Holmes remarks that the pipe's bowl is always better packed, but the "... most pleasurable of all leisure lies in the exquisite emptying of the bowl." Watson remarks that logically his statement implies that the bowl is always better packed, yet must always be in the process of being smoked. Therefore, if one is to truly enjoy themselves they must remain smoking the "bowl" indefinitely.
