The Ross Gellar Conundrum

When an unsuspecting victim in a group of friends falls in to the bottomless pit of everyone calling them "Ross Gellar" for the rest of their life.

"I guess all my friends call me 'Ross Gellar' now. I don't really like it, but in their defense I never did try to make them stop."

"I am SO not Ross Gellar. How did you even come up with that? It doesn't make any sense and is, like, quite frankly so far off it's sad..."
"That's so Ross, bro."
"Oh my god, can't you see you are only saying that because of the Ross Gellar Conundrum?!"

Conundrum

Noun:
A situation or happening that insists upon itself creating an irrational answer.

1. The phrase "Not planning ahead is planning for failure" is a conundrum. By not planning you are planning which means you aren't not planning, therefore you can't plan for failure at all, because the only way to plan for failure is to not plan at all but by not planning you are planning.
