As I believe that I am very smart and most Paradoxes are solvable, I will be attempting to do it
If you believe that I'm retarded reply with the reason why, and feel free to give your own takes and other paradoxes
The Liar Paradox: A statement "This sentence is false." If it is true, it must be false; if it is false, it must be true.
I believe this one to be extremely stupid. The sentence lacks information to the point where it's neither, the sentence can't be true or false because what are we even talking about, what is false? This sentence? Which is just saying it's also false, almost like a continuous loop. Am I missing the point?


The Pinocchio Paradox: Pinocchio says, "My nose will grow". If his nose grows, he lied, meaning it should not have grown. If his nose does not grow, he told the truth, meaning it should have grown.
This one is like the liar paradox but better. Since there's actual reason behind it, but this one can also be solved and its to do with the actual rules of Pinocchio. Pinocchio's nose only grows if HE HIMSELF actually says something untrue that he KNOWS, otherwise it's not a lie, he just didn't know. Since the Pinocchio is saying WILL how is he supposed to know? He can't predict the future.

Grandfather Paradox: If you travel back in time and kill your grandfather before your parent is conceived, you would never exist, making it impossible for you to go back and kill him.

This one is my favourite because I've been thinking about it for SO long, and I don't think there's a solution to it. I'm challenging any of you guys to figure it out.

the last one just creates multiple timelines

everytime you travel back you change the future.

if the future is changed, so is the timeline

you therefore live in a different timeline.

once changed, you can never go back to the previous timeline, only different ones

thats what i was thinking but i thought about it this way

if your father dies when you kill your grandfather then how do you live?

you cant just exclude yourself out of not being born jus because you were the one that went back in time

no because when you go back in time its another timeline as the other guy said, your not in the same universe or some shit so it doesnt matter if you were born or not because thats not the same timeline, its quite confusing but thats what i saw online once

Pinocchio's Paradox is a hypothetical, this is saying full on, that pinnochio knows it will grow and it will grow, and since he's telling the truth, it shouldn't grow, but he said it will grow. You pretty much only answered the paradox in a realistic scenario, which doesn't make it a paradox since the idea (the lie paradox) is a paradox that cannot be experimented in real life.

its simple, the person who is supposed to be dead ( that timelines you ) will be dead or never have been born.

but you, the one who traveled in time, will be unchanged by any circumstances.

your grandfather lived and passed on his genes

the one who was killed is in a different timeline.

you cant change your past with timetravel, you can only create a different timeline

no because when you go back in time its another timeline as the other guy said,
i was midway thru writing something like this but deleted it bc its not like the time machine creates a new world, its the same one so there cant be another timeline created from that

hypothetically when you come back you wont have a father at all which is just impossible

pinocchios shity paradox isnt one

just stupid conditions

pinocchio knows he will some day likely lie again, if so then his nose will grow.

it doesnt have to grow immediately only in the future.

no specific timing
