Illways paradox

The paradox takes place when a self destructive personality takes a tab of acid hoping for a bad trip. The bad trip doesn’t take place and the user is left disappointed. By definition making the trip a bad trip but also not.

Can be used to avoid a bad trip, don’t recommend risking it.
“What did you get up to on the weekend?”

“Took a tab of acid hoping to trip balls and believe I’m a giant orange that everyone on earth wants to peel but it didn’t happen so I’m pissed”

“Bro is that like some mad paradox or something?”

“Idk man let’s call it illways paradox

self-help paradox

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!

Bari Mahir Paradox

A romantic and totally illogical-yet-cute theory that states: "If a boyfriend does something wrong, it's his girlfriend's fault because he belongs to her, and all his actions are influenced by her presence in his life."

Often used by deeply-in-love guys who want to stay out of trouble while reminding their girl that they're hopelessly, ridiculously hers.
