Eliansen Conundrum

When two people argue who has the best wit in the course and they are being over-polite to one another.

Guy one: you are smarter than me in this course
Guy two: no you are
Guy one: no you are...
The cycle continues until one side becomes exhausted and concede the victory to another.

Guy one: "Look, they are arguing over who is smarter in that course again."
Guy two: "ahh let them be, that's the Eliansen Conundrum and they will eventually figure it out."
