A scenario where you ask Rick Astley for a copy of the Disney Film "Up", meaning that Rick Astley will either have to "Give you up" or "Let you down", therefore creating the Astley Paradox.

Person: "Can I have the Disney Film Up?"
Rick Astley: "Damnit, you just made the Astley Paradox."

Pulling an Aseile

When someone sees a text a few hours after they received it, and decide not to reply because they feel the conversation window is closed. Which, in turn, makes the sender feel like a loser since they did not get a reply.

"I texted her three hours ago, why didn't she reply?"
"She's pulling an Aseile"
