...Paradoxes...

N1ghtw0lf · May 30th, 2003

know any good ones???

superman just stands there and lets bullets hit him...but why does he move when they throw the gun at him?

Dark Zero · May 30th, 2003

Ah Superman, a paradox in himself.

Why can superman move at the speed of sound (super duper fast), but when it is needed, he barely can catch up to a missile?

**Kane** · May 30th, 2003

If you say something is indescribable, isn't that describing it?

If you were a pastor, and you were getting married, would you hire a pastor, or would you do the wedding yourself?

Why is Joey short for Joe, when Joey has more letters?

If a person suffered from amnesia and then was cured would they remember that they forgot?

Why do mattresses have designs on them when they're always covered with sheets?

If a singer sings their own song during a karaoke party, is it considered karaoke?

If conjoined twins participate in sports, do they count as one or two players?

If something "goes without saying," why do people still say it?

You know the expression, "Don't quit your day job?" Well what do you say to people that work nights?

If a missing person sees their picture on a milk carton that offers a reward, would they get the money?

If the president were ***, would his husband be the first man?

If you were a genie and a person asked you this wish, "I wish you would not grant me this wish" what would you do?

He doesn't want to spent his energy to stop the bullet or he has no mood.

if it is the Number pencil of choice why is called the Number 2 pencil?

what happens if you get scared half to death twice what happens?

You are a barber in a small town who only shaves the men who don't shave themselves. Do you shave yourself?

Depends if you are male or not

since cat's always land on their feet, and butter toast always lands on the buttered side, what would happen if you taped the buttered toast (butter side up) to the back of a cat and dropped it off a building?

It hovers indefinately an inch from the ground. That is in 9 out of ten cases. In the last case, the cat pulled it's legs righ round and tried to land that way. Unfortunately, due to the height of the drop the cad splashed.

if i killed hitler for the good of society then why would society put me in jail

>>if it is the Number pencil of choice why is called the Number 2 pencil?

because the amount of carbon added to the clay... determines the softness or hardness of the graphite.

1 is really hard very light. 2 is sorta soft and sorta dark. 3 is soft and really dark.

Talking 'bout speed I remembered something: If Inuyasha can run faster than any human, why he can't get Miroku when he is running????

Dont know if this will make any sense but what the hell..

All african americans are black,
michael jackson is an african american.
their for, michael jackson is black.

Dark Zero · May 31st, 2003

Michael Jackson is "black", just in a very bleached way

**DarkAurora** · May 31st, 2003

If God created man, who created God?

**Kane** · May 31st, 2003

God is an infinite entity. Therefore, (s)he has no creation or end. Humans seem to have great difficulty comprehending the infinite, neh?

**DarkAurora** · May 31st, 2003

Or maybe [s]he is so powerful that they created themselves.

**Kane** · May 31st, 2003

That's the point (s)he has no begginning. By being an entity that exists throughout eternity, he is there before the beginning and after the end.

One more: How is it that people believe you when you tell them that a star is a burning ball of gas billions of miles away, when they have to touch wet paint to see that it's wet.

**DarkAurora** · May 31st, 2003

Why does the US have a policy against assassinating(sp?) foreign leaders yet they "free" Iraq by blowing everything up?
