Welcome to the Paradoxical Parley, where the laws of logic are mere suggestions. Here, the fabric of reality is woven with contradictions and paradoxes, making it a delightfully confusing experience.
Below, you'll find our collection of Subparadoxes, each one a puzzle that defies explanation and solution. Try to wrap your head around them, but be warned: the more you try, the more it will hurt.
Subparadox #1: The Liar's Dilemma: A man who says 'I am the king of lies.' But if he's the king of lies, then he's telling the truth, making him not the king of lies, but rather, just a man who says 'I am not the king of lies.' Learn more about this mind-bending paradox.
Subparadox #2: The Barber's Paradox: A barber who shaves all the men in the village who do not shave themselves. Does he shave himself? If he does not shave himself, then he must be one of the men who do not shave themselves, and therefore, he should shave himself. Delve deeper into this tangled web of self-referential confusion.
Subparadox #3: The Time Traveler's Paradox: A time traveler who goes back in time to kill his own grandfather. But if he succeeds, then he would never have been born, making it impossible for him to go back in time to kill his grandfather in the first place. Explore the implications of this temporal conundrum.
Subparadox #4: The Sorites Paradox: A sorites (a type of sandal) that is both on and off at the same time. If it is on, then it is not off, and if it is off, then it is not on. Unravel the enigma of the sorites paradox.
