The new fad

Is paradoxes - You see them all over scratch forums!  I mean, how many paradoxes get repeated on threads the most common one "This is a lie"
Where did this start out?  I mean i think it started with the "Head chopper" Thread but i'm not sure. Could anyone please tell me what they know?

that's a paradox - because by knowing you know nothing then you know something.  But what you know is that you know nothing... ect, ect

Retired from Scratch, but just the language itself. Not the forums.

That's not a paradox-  That's just lying about your name then telling the truth
;P

Re: The new fad

To answer your question, the first paradox thread showed up in the old forums. It's one of the archived forums that are, at the moment, hidden.
