'''Paradox''

  • etymology:
    • from Greek paradoxon for "contrary opinion
      • para = prior
      • dox = opinion
  • definition:
    • a conflicting or self-contradictory opinion or situation
    • creates an absurdity, a puzzle or something unlikely
    • = a problem that
      • has no solution
      • the solution is never-ending
      • or the solution yields an outcome that negates the original problem
Paradox: when you can't have it both ways...
