The Looter's Paradox

A common tragedy amongst Looter's when faced with overwhelming amounts of loot , supplies etc they're limited by the quantity of things they can carry. They are forced to leave some loot behind despite wanting all of it. Usually when faced with the Looter's Paradox people are troubled by deciding on what to take and feel uneasy leaving things behind. (Most commonly applies to video games).
After that base raid in dayz I was faced with the Looter's Paradox after finding ludacris amounts of loot.

Paradoxing

Pār-a-dox-een;

The act of texting from two sources on one account at the same time.
I was paradoxing today from my iPhone and my iPad and the server froze because it didn’t know which one to send first.

the lost mind paradox

When somebody would loose their mind, they wouldnt be able to know, because they wouldnt be able to find it back.
Therefore, when somebody says that they lost their mind, it is unlikely that they did.
Also, asking someone if they lost their mind is quite a futile question.
the lost mind paradox:
Have you lost your mind?
Yes, I have lost my mind!

Gammon Paradox

Someone that wants to keep their sovereignty yet rejects that very same sovereignty.

This occurs primarily when a Gammon that voted for a hard Brexit to get their sovereignty back, has a fit due to the law of the land (sovereignty) going against their wishes.

Or, when the act of a proroguement was deemed by a Gammon that it was not used for 'particular purpose' (i.e. Brexit), yet the Gammon insists the 'particular purpose' was affected by the deemed illegality of said proroguement.
"This is a prime example of a Gammon Paradox, as he insists the supreme court is the bad ones in all this, but the courts are part of our sovereign state."

The Babcockis Paradox

In probability theory, the Babcockis Paradox, or the Babcockis Effect, concerns the probability that, in a set of

n randomly chosen people in a group text of numbers one does not recognize, some set of at least 3 of them are Babcockis.
(555)555-5555: Man, who are those obnoxious guys ruining this text?
(555)555-5556: I am Babcockis.
(555)555-5557: I, too, am Babcockis!
(555)555-5558: I am Chris Burke, and therefor not Babcockis. I stood a high probabilistic chance of being Babcockis. The Babcockis Paradox states as much.
(555)555-5559: Fuck you it's Babcockis
Trey: Hey yalllll!

Paradox

Two parallel lines intersecting. It's when you know you're right but also wrong.
