Perfection

"Well, from a psycho-analytical point of view I think you're obsessive - you keep on responding to my replies after you said that you said enough!?"

Up until you replied to that same post, I had. Now you have gave me something I feel I want to reply to. Simple.

"Anyway, I'm screwing with your mind - the sentence does make sense, allthough I don't know what you're trying to achieve with it - you're making assumptions about my intentions anyway."

Haha, screwing with my mind. You couldn't challenge my brain if you tried.

"Oh I know what the sentence means. I was just screwing with your mind." For someone that has multiple mental disorders, you should be concentrating on keeping your mind together rather than piling up lie after lie, pretence after pretence.

You are right - I couldn't challenge your brain if I tried, because your brain would not be a challenge for mine. 😂

Here's a challenge for you:

True or False?

What I am now saying, is a lie. If it's true, then it's false and if it's false, then it's true.

What am I saying? 😮‍💨

"What I am now saying, is a lie. If it's true, then it's false and if it's false, then it's true."

"What I am saying now, is a lie": First you imply that you are lying.

"If it's true, then it's false and if it's false, then it's true.": You now say that if your previous claim of lying is true, then you are lying and what you were saying was infact false, a lie. As you first claimed. However if it's false, then what you claimed as a lie, is not a lie, it is true.

Loosen up the grammatical brain teasing joints and come better than that, Gramps.

There is now way out of this - it's a logical circle: "What I am saying now, is a lie": this is not implying that I'm lying - the predicament is that you cannot determine if I'm lying or not - it's impossible. Look again.

"There is now way out of this - it's a logical circle: "What I am saying now, is a lie": this is not implying that I'm lying - the predicament is that you cannot determine if I'm lying or not - it's impossible."

Well using my approach it works.

Secondly, if it's impossible, did you feel some kind of intellectual high by giving someone an "impossible" equation? Clearly an indication of just how pretentious you are. If it were a lesser person you'd probably have called them an idiot for not getting it.

-AC

Your approach is flawed - I'd know afterall - I wrote it. Anyway, you were close to getting it, but it's not that simple.

It's also not that relevant. You threw it out thinking you were gonna trick me, you didn't. If I didn't get it exactly, I saw right through it. So it's neither here nor there.

-AC

If you didn't get it exactly, then how could you possibly see right through it? That doesn't make sense???

"If you didn't get it exactly, then how could you possibly see right through it? That doesn't make sense???"

Because I saw what you were getting at which you admitted.

WHat did I admit, please be specific. I merely gave you a logical puzzle/conundrum.

"Anyway, you were close to getting it,"

I saw what you were doing with the logical puzzle. So I didn't fail.

-AC

Being close to getting it and actually getting it is not the same. You came to a conclusion of "True", but it's designed to the efect that you can't reach a definite conclusion.

"Being close to getting it and actually getting it is not the same. You came to a conclusion of "True", but it's designed to the efect that you can't reach a definite conclusion."

A) That's exactly what I said. If I DIDN'T get it, I came damn close. It doesn't mean I failed.

B) Why ask it then?

A: You either get it or you don't - getting it means success; not getting it or comming close means failure.

B: I tested your logical ability - it's pretty good. 😉

This is a rather well known question, stated by many logicians (is there a word like that) before. There are many others, even harder ones.

So, bardock, what do you think is the answer?

"A: You either get it or you don't - getting it means success; not getting it or comming close means failure."

Getting a silver medal in the olympics when aiming for gold, doesn't equate to failure.

-AC

When one does not reach what one aimed for, I think it's a failure.

"What I am now saying, is a lie" that is an equation to the question.. and then you said "If it's true, then it's false"--> If you are lying, then it's false, because you told the truth.. "If it's false, then it's true"--> You are implying that if you weren't lying, then you are telling the truth..

It's called a riddle actually... if I am not wrong... ^^

That is not a riddle, the answer to a riddle is generally quite obvious once it is discovered.

What we have here is a nonsensical loop that means nothing.
