You seem like the sort of person who says, "I always lie."

You seem like the sort of person who says, "I always lie."
- Dylan16807 9y agoI like it. Because that's also not a paradox, it's just a lie. It can be deceptively difficult to get the wording correct on a paradox.
- IncRnd 9y agoIn the sense that a paradox is self-contradicting, what I wrote is definitely a paradox. Trust me. I always tell the truth, so to speak.
- Dylan16807 9y ago"It's noon in Texas, and it's midnight in Texas." is also self-contradicting. That's not enough for a paradox.
- bananicorn 9y agoMaybe: "This statement is a lie"?
- IncRnd 9y agoExactly. As long as "maybe" isn't part of the statement!
- aangjie 9y agoYeah.. Everybody always lies.. The only way to get or transfer the truth is to hook up(or read) brains (ideally neuron by neuron, and change the receiver's brains to reflect the same. :-P
