I can't figure out how to make the coffee machine work because I haven't had a coffee yet! Damn you, Hunter's Paradox!

A paradox that states that anyone who claims to not care about something cares enough to say that he or she does not care and therefore is interpreting the information given. A very uncommon phrase used to proclaim when one "does not care" and yelled at someone to annoy the crap out of them, as in the example below:
Person that does not care (PDC): Well i don't care about that
Annoying person: Care paradox!
PDC: I don't care about that either.
Annoying person: Care paradox!
PDC: Just shut up, won't you?
Annoying person: Well I can still say what I want! Right to free speech, remember?
PDC: Well, I don't-
Annoying person: Care -
PDC: Yeah. Now I really don't care.
Annoying person: Do you know what care paradox is? Look above this conversation. You'll understand soon enough.
PDC: I do and do not care.
Annoying person: Care paradox!
PDC: I don't care about that either.
Annoying person: Care paradox!
PDC: Just shut up, won't you?
Annoying person: Well I can still say what I want! Right to free speech, remember?
PDC: Well, I don't-
Annoying person: Care -
PDC: Yeah. Now I really don't care.
Annoying person: Do you know what care paradox is? Look above this conversation. You'll understand soon enough.
PDC: I do and do not care.

The dilemma that all autogynephilic men must confront: stay a man and remain sexually unfulfilled on account of not being a woman; or become a woman and remain sexually unfulfilled on account of all the hormone therapy nuking your sex drive.
I honestly don't know whether to troon out or not: how will I fap to not having a dick any more if I don't have a dick? It's Blanchard's Paradox all over.

A paradox in applied philosophy analogous to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle.
Tenet 1 - Advice or information taken from Zeno at face value will always be wrong.
Tenet 2- Investigation or contestation of any information taken from Zeno will always show it to be correct.
Corollary to Tenet 2- When such a contest is resolved in Zeno's favor (as it always will be) the contesting party will be severely mocked.
Therefore, interaction with Zeno will always result in the interacting party coming away wronged or mocked.

A bargain leather jacket was purchased on the basis of Zeno's insistence that it was real leather. As it turned out, it was not real leather. Forty dollars was lost when a hot fork punctured a whole in it.
But mocking ensued when, despite everyone's doubts and harangues, Zeno's method for estimating hourly television power costs turned out to be completely correct.
According to Tenet 1 of the paradox, if the leather jacket had not been purchased, it would in fact have been real leather.
According to Tenet 2 of the paradox, if Zeno's method for power estimation had not been knocked, the estimates it provided would have been grossly erroneous.
