Paradoxical Logic 1: The Grandfather Clock

Time is relative, or so they say. But have you ever considered the paradox of a clock that runs faster than a clock that runs slower? Meet the Grandfather Clock, a timepiece so paradoxical, it will make your head spin.

According to the laws of temporal relativity, the Grandfather Clock is simultaneously ahead of its time and behind schedule. It's like trying to solve a puzzle where the pieces are all moving at different speeds. Confusing, right?

What's the point of time, anyway? Note: A hyperlinks to a fictional page, /meetings/attendees/philosophers/paradoxes/paradoxical-logic-1/what-is-time-anyway, which will likely be another Neo-Brutalist HTML page with more philosophical ramblings on time and its nature.
