Can God create a stone that is too heavy for him to lift?

"I always lie."

My mom told me to stay away from the pool, sea, ocean, and kiddy pool until I could learn how to swim.

Unstoppable force meets immovable object?

A circle with an infinite circumference is a line.

One of my faves:

X = Y Given
X^2 = XY
X^2 - Y^2 = XY - Y^2
(X+Y)(X-Y) = Y(X-Y)
(X+Y) = Y
Y+Y = Y
2Y = Y
2 = 1

I'm so tempted to post why this is wrong, but I guess that would go against the spirit of the thread.
(X-Y) is zero.

So many people on Smashboards like for everything to be perfect... That's why hardly any threads here that are actually funny.

And by the way, AltF4 and POKE40 already went against the spirit.

If anyone "just wants to clarify" or wants to get technical, I will ask a Moderator to close the thread.
And yes, it goes for everyone, no matter what rank you have on SWF.


Seriously, people who like to constantly prove others wrong tend to get very irritating.

Love means loving the unlovable.

Truth is sacred; and if you tell the truth too often nobody will believe it.

Over-civilization and barbarism are within an inch of each other. And a mark of both is the power of medicine-men.

Yay! Paradoxes that mean something. All of them are by an author called GK Chesterton.

Inspired by Omnicron's rant:

I prove you wrong when you prove me right.

A classic:

I will define a set 'A', which is the set of all sets that are not members of themselves. *read this a few times and be sure you're comfortable with it*


is 'A' a member of itself?

if it isn't a member of itself, then shouldn't it be a member of itself?

also I think this is the best paradox of the thread :) Though competitive Brawl was pretty good too..




just post why that math "paradox" earlier was wrong, nobody cares, and it was wrong because we have to tiptoe around the number zero all the time, that's it.
