Goodbye.

Post by ramzafft1 » Mon Mar 19, 2007 3:52 am

"Hello" is just so overused in these introductory topics. Seriously.

Anyway, hello. My screen name is ramzafft1. I've been a member for a few days already, but I wanted to get through the archives first. Needless to say, they're quite long. :P

I have no plans to ever reveal my real name or age. HAHAHAHA!!!
The statement below is false.

This statement is true.

... I felt like being original.

Hate to say it, but that paradox is so overdone...
Try simplifying it: "This statement is false."

That is all.

No, see, the joke is that the statement actually IS false, and there's no paradox at all...

Eh, just forget it. :?

But if the statement is, indeed, false, the statement is true. Paradox.

Given that "The statement below is false", if the statement below reads "This statement is true" it is obviously false. Or so I would think...

Maybe I'm just using faulty logic and it actually is a paradox... Or... er... hmm... :evil:

Hello, I must be going,
I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going.
I'm glad I came, but just the same I must be going.
La La.

(Mrs. Rittenhouse/Margaret Dumont)
For my sake you must stay.
If you should go away,
You'd spoil this party I am throwing.

(Spaulding/Groucho)
I'll stay a week or two,
I'll stay the summer through,
But I am telling you,
I must be going.
No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave. -- Calvin Coolidge

Today's liberals wish to disarm us so they can run their evil and oppressive agenda on us. The fight against crime is just a convenient excuse to further their agenda. I don't know about you, but if you hear that Williams' guns have been taken, you'll know Williams is dead. -- Walter Williams, Professor of Economics, George Mason University

"This statement is false."

If true: the statement is false (incorrect) as it says, and so is indeed true, er, false...um.

If false: the statement is true (correct) which contradicts the statement, which means it's false...um...hmm.

Now I'm puzzled.
