Tillich-Walker Paradox 

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!

Campbell's Paradox 

Campbell's paradox states that the word "dad" is both at the peak of kinky and devoid of kinky connotation simultaneously. Philosophers and ethicists typically use the common term "daddy" as an anchor, since "daddy" is known to have non-zero and non-absolute kinky connotation. Thus, the scale of kinkiness goes dad < daddy < dad.
"On a scale from dad to dad, how bad was that girl you were with last night?"
"Excuse me?"

The Beyonce Paradox 

The desperate need to be the more attractive one in the relationship.
"That guy from our gym is so hot, but have you seen his wife? She looks like a bear with a mop for hair, no way can he be attracted to her."

"He suffers from the Beyonce paradox! Hes only with her because he desperately needs to look better than whoever he is with."

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!

The Elevator Paradox 

So this is a way to confuse everyone around you in an elevator when you walk in.
When you walk in an elevator, you do not turn around to face the door and continute to stare at the back of the Elevator.
To achieve maximum confusion, you walk out facing the same way untill the people in the elevator can no longer see you.
Me: *walks into an elevator, doesn't turn to look at the door*
Guy 1: Whats he doing, why is it making me unnerved.
Guy 2: Careful! He's creating The Elevator Paradox, just let him be and he'll go away... uncomfortably..

The Martha Paradox 

When someone has a crush on another person and thinks that the person they like likes them back because they have been indirectly flirting with them or acting as if the like them
“She did sleep on me but I can’t tell if it’s the Martha paradox or not”

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.
