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."

Get the Astley Paradox mug.
If you ask Rick Astley for a copy of 2009's "Up" but he doesn't give it to you because he will never give you up.
But by not doing so, he lets you down, and breaks his second rule.
He has to either give you up, or let you down, which rule will he break?
Guy#1: I asked Rick Astley for "Up" but he didn't give it to me.
Guy#2: So he caused the Rick Astley Paradox!
Guy#3: At least he didn't say goodbye.
