The paradox of dog territory ownership during and after it rains. Rain washes away or spreads out the scent of piss, so it has to be replaced eventually, but as there is no longer any record of the pisser's claim, does it truly have the right to claim it again? This thought experiment was first proposed by Robert Hund in 1933 because he probably ran out of things to do in his tiny Hooverville cabin and had to start tracking the territory of neighborhood dogs during his waking hours. He's also proposed the swallowing tree paradox, the ripened banana and blue pen ink paradox, and to his wife, Melanie. She once gave her grandson $1 to "buy himself something nice" with, back when that meant something.
"Urban Dictionary prompted me to use my nonsense pisser's paradox in a sentence, clearly displaying the fact that it hasn't noticed that it's users have begun using it as a way to also learn phrases and concepts."

Get the The Rickroll Paradoxmug. The sum of two singular expressions which intuitively makes sense but the PLURAL is never conclusive and because of that in the first place both SINGULARS ARE INACCURATE to reach the PLURAL which is there where the paradox formation occurs.

In this example the SUMMATIONS individually of EACH CIRCLE comes very close in EQUALING TOTAL DEGREES IN A CIRCLE but the PLURAL itself is 153 DEGREES OFF.

THE PARADOXICAL SUMMATIONS of CIRCLE in the SINGULAR form does not lead to the SUMMATIONS in the PLURAL FORM.
The PARADOXICAL SUMMATIONS CIRCLE CIRCLE.358 almost equals the number of DEGREES in a CIRCLE by using the two PLURAL taken each ELEMENT SEPARATELY IF you counted each CIRCLE as a DEGREE it indeed would EQUAL 360 DEGREES as if counting the TWO DEGREES OF FREEDOM.

"If less is more, how little is too much?"
There are NIL Google results for that phrase, a quotation now attributable to Possom Cohen, New Zealand.
Time becomes more valuable as one ages. This is a classic example of the Paradox of Minimalism.
The Paradox of Minimalism is related to the passage of time and to The Holiday Paradox.

Bonnie Raitt addressed the passage of time and the Paradox of Minimalism in her song "Nick Of Time."
Bonnie Raitt - Nick Of Time
"I see my folks are getting on
And I watch their bodies change
I know they see the same in me
And it makes us both feel strange
No matter how you tell yourself
It's what we all go through
Those lines are pretty hard to take
When they're staring back at you
Oh Oh Oh, scared you'll run out of time
When did the choices get so hard
With so much more at stake
Life gets mighty precious
When there's less of it to wa-a-a-aste
Mmm-m-m-m-m-m
Mmmmmmm, scared you'll run out of time"

There's an old joke - um... two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about life - full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly.”
― Woody Allen, Annie Hall: Screenplay

The Paradox of Minimalism is epitomized in the opening sentence of this 2016 New York Times article:
"It has become an ostentatious ritual of consumerist self-sacrifice; people who have it all now seem to prefer having nothing at all."

The Paradox of Minimalism also describes some very rich people giving away most of their material possessions.
“The richer you are, the less you have.”
Another ironic example of the Paradox of Minimalism is the recent KonMari decluttering craze:
