While something may be terribly annoying, listening to someone complaining about that thing is always worse.
Alternatively: The only thing more annoying than (x) is someone who can't stop complaining about (x).

Andy: I hate this snow! I'd rather live in Iraq than in this terrible weather!
Bill: Shut up.
Andy: Why? You hate snow as much as I do!
Bill: Yeah, but listening to you whine is worse. Complainer's Paradox.
Andy: Oh, I'm sorry.
Bill: Shut up.

The burning need (whilst stoned) to both lie down, get up and eat something, drinking something and play more Mario. This creates the ultimate paradox in that you can never be doing what you want to, despite attempting to do what you need constantly.

The Poe Paradox is a corollary to Poe's Law. It states that:
"In any fundamentalist group where Poe's Law applies, a paradox exists where any new person (or idea) sufficiently fundamentalist to be accepted by the group, is likely to be so ridiculous that they risk being rejected as a parodist (or parody)."
The term was first used by RationalWiki editor The Lay Scientist to describe an apparent paradox in the management of editing rights at Conservapedia:

A poe paradox: any new member of the Conservapedia project who's not as Conservative as them is liable to be chucked out. However, any new member who is as Conservative as them is in serious danger of being called a parodist, and chucked out.

The 968 Paradox.
The 968 Paradox originates from the devil’s number "666" and resembles how the opposite of it "999" (the positive) and itself come together (when overlapped) to create “8” : the number of infinity as respected in many cultures worldwide.
The 968 Paradox represents the paradoxical nature of positivity and negativity, and how they provoke and complete each other in the universal balance of life.

"My 'demons' started catching up with me when I realised I fell in love with you, feels like the 968 paradox."

Men who call everyone "Buddy" seldom develop close friendships, especially with other men. "Buddy" is actually a smokescreen for their anti-social nature. If they keep calling you "buddy," they aren't your buddy.
