Science fiction likes to make a big deal out of this term and throw technobabble around to make it look clever in an attempt to make the audience confused and thus ready to buy whatever crap the writers come up with.
Basically, a time paradox occurs if you time travel and change the past so that it erases the possibility of you going to the past in the first place. Which means that events will occur as if you never traveled to the past, undoing your changes so you will travel to the past again, and so on ad infinitum.
Some writers think that it can destroy the universe. Or unleash killer flying time monkeys. Well, we haven't invented time travel so we can't test these theories.

- So, if I travel to the past to kill my grandfather, I'll create a time paradox and will never been born?
- Worse than that - if you travel to the past to kill someone and succeed, then you will have no reason to travel to the past at all! And without you in the past, events will happen as they originally did before you interfered. Time will be caught in a loop!
- Oh no!

Get the time paradox mug.1) Popularized by NBA superstar Kawhi Leonard, the board man, who is the person doing all the hard work of rebound that is usually not in the spotlight of the basketball game. The saying in this context simply means anyone who is working hard should get a matching reward for their hard work.
2) This saying can also be traced back to Afro-Caribbean communities where during the table games such as pool or ping pong, the board man is the third person who ensures the game is fair. In this context the saying means that whoever contributes to the success of anyone or anything, should be rewarded as well for their continuations.

Emergency workers deserve to be recognized and rewarded by our society just as entertainers. I mean, the board man gets paid, yeah?

Get the Board man gets paid mug.Burnout Paradise is the seventh installment in the Burnout franchise created by Criterion Games and published by Electronic Arts. It is radically different from last Burnout parts. You game is in sandbox style and you start races by hitting break and acceleration button on marked points on map. Graphics are incredible smooth and colorful – in my opinion it’s the best looking racing game on 256bit consoles. Also there is an option to choose your own soundtrack from HDD since "Cagney" update released on July 10, 2008 for PlayStation 3 and on August 4, 2008 for the Xbox 360
All great modes from last Burnouts are back and new ones are coming almost every month as buy-able content (DLC).
The highlight of Burnout Paradise is the multiplayer mode where dipshits from all over the world will fuck up your day. You just hate playing this game because of those jack asses.
If you're expecting 20+h of tense gameplay you will get it - that fucking awesome, but if you're expecting ultra hardcore game you will be dissopoitment. It's not Grid on ultrahard level.

Burnout Paradise have ruined my life (because for multi).
It's the win for EA and fail for hardcore gamers.
