Opposition Paradox

"(The) Opposition Paradox" is a term credited to the philosopher C.M. Nutter for describing when people are unwilling to try new things that others recommend without a logical reason other than to simply provide opposition to the idea of trying something new.

Donna recommended her and Steve go to Chinese food for dinner. Steve opposed the idea even though he never tried Chinese food. Donna pushed and eventually Steve conceded and they had Chinese food for dinner. After trying the food Steve fell in love with Chinese food wonder why he opposed it and was never willing to try before. Therefore being a victim of the Opposition Paradox.

Netflix Paradox

When a women is going to high school and is fit much because she has PE and is active, she is watching a netflix at night but active during the day. When she is turning 18 and is finally old enough to consume alcohol she starts consuming more alcohol and calories, but it is no problem, beacuse of the her being active at daytime, but when they graduate from high school they dont have this active lifestyle at daytime, and they usually ends up at more parties, and watching even more netflix. This results in gaining weight.

Looters Paradox

The "Looters Paradox" is a phenomenon that occurs in survival games and looter shooters, where the Player or "Looter" cannot find the item they are desperately looking for when they are putting their effort into looking for it, but will find it when they've forgotten about it or are looking for a completely different item.

It's a frustrating battle with a games RNG that always seems to target you at odd moments. For example, if the player is looking for an "Apple", they will not find the apple, but will only find Bananas and Oranges. But the moment they top looking for the Apple and start looking for the Bananas and Oranges, they will only find the apple.

"Ugh, I've been looking for this item for hours, but I just cannot find it! I hate the looters paradox!"
"Wh-... what the f---? Why is it always that, when I stop looking for this item, it is all I will ever find?!"
