Picture a family or group of friends singing together, maybe sitting around a campfire, or lounging on the front porch, or even while taking a long road trip. During these exchanges, folk songs are created, repeated, and transformed. Folk songs are passed down from generation to generation, with differing versions and embellishments along the way. This particular folk song is intended to be seriously silly. Most of the phrases contain a paradox, which is a statement or proposition that, despite sounding reasonable from acceptable premises, leads to a conclusion that seems senseless, logically unacceptable, or self-contradictory. Many famous quotes also contain paradoxes: * "Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it." -Gandhi * "It's weird not to be weird." -John Lennon * "Life is a preparation for the future; and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none." -Albert Einstein * "I know one thing: that I know nothing." -Socrates (via Plato) Here are a few more silly examples: * Nobody goes to that restaurant; it's too crowded. * Don't go near the water 'til you have learned how to swim. * The man who wrote such a stupid sentence cannot write at all. * If you get this message, call me, and if you don't get it, don't call. * Deep down, you're really shallow. Can you come up with a paradox of your own?.
