A thing that you think of before you go to sleep that keeps you up to two in the morning, while you despise the thing that made you think it.

The Tillich-Walker paradox is a paradox that occurs when an individual has sufficient statistical knowledge to know the power necessary, or the requisite n sample size to draw meaningful conclusions about a sample pool of sexual partners, yet due precisely to this eggheaded knowledge they are unlikely to attract a sufficient number of mates to ever attain statistical significance in their own sample of sexual partners.
Oh man, Christian Tillich-Walker knows how many partners he needs, but he'll never be able to reach that number, I guess that's why they call it the Tillich-Walker paradox!

Get the Tillich-Walker Paradox mug.The Sigma paradox happens with thirds mainly e.g 1/3 = 33.333 repeating 2/3 = 66.666 repeating and 3/3 = 99.999 repeating. 3/3 is q whole number equaling 1 however it can't equal 1 because it is 99.9 repeating get it? It comes ever closer too 100% but will never get there. You can relate, in sure.

Get the sigma paradox mug.The age-old conundrum of "people who seek self-improvement vs. people who need self-improvement" --- generally speaking, the people who are conscientious and unashamedly self-examining enough to actively seek ways to improve themselves do not really need to self-improve very much, whereas the people who truly do need to improve themselves will not admit that they even HAVE a self-inadequacy problem, and so they arrogantly/impatiently refuse to seek or accept help in improving their character or behavior (think, the infamous "getters gettin' got" conversation between Madea and Dr. Phil).
Client, to counsellor, at the outset of their weekly meeting: Breaker one-five for reality check --- come on back?
Counsellor, playing along: Yeah, go ahead, Breaker --- reading you wall-to-wall and treetop-tall.
Client: Thanks --- that's a big ten-four, good buddy. Well, I'm in the process of trying to improve myself, and so I thought I'd send a random shout-out over the waves to check my progress. I've been trying to be more sociable and patient and helpful to everyone, visualize things more from their perspective, and so on.
Counsellor: Well, eights and other good numbers to you on THAT one, good buddy --- that's certainly a positive start. Have you tried self-help books?
Client: Oh, a great BIG ten-four THERE, good buddy --- I've read at least a half-dozen of 'em cover-to-cover, and loved every page; the problem, though, is that I never seem to find any new ideas --- most everything in there is stuff I already know about and am actively practicing, so the books just reassuringly confirm the nature and wisdom of my efforts, not provide fresh perspectives for further improvement.
Counsellor: Ah... well, ten-four, good buddy --- I totally "get you" there... the old "self-help paradox", eh?? The only people who'll read those books are ones who don't need 'em!

Get the self-help paradox mug.The idea that some women who are extremely attractive, also attract a large number of men who are trying to have sex with them, which increases the chances that they have been used, reused and abused by many men too before they gets to you, thus making them less attractive for a long- term relationship and/or marriage.
Jane is a super fun hot chick, great to date and have fun with but she is no marriage material, too many miles in her engine, it is the hot chick paradox, great for sex but terrible for a wife.

Get the hot chick paradox mug.The terrible realization that the chocolate chips in your cookie are, in fact raisins. Yet, you continue to consume the cookie simply because it's a cookie, even though its not the cookie you want.
An overwhelming disappointment when you realize you've set high expectations based on the appearance of an item.

Beth: Hey are you still dating Landon??
Mica: Yeah, but he's a total Cookie Paradox. His dick is tiny.
Beth: Oh but he's so attractive and funny, what are you gonna do?
Mica: Well, I'm obviously going to fool around with him until I find something better.
