Liar or not? (Posted on 2002-11-12) Difficulty: 3 of 5
A man walks up to you and says:
"Everything I say to you is a lie."

Is he telling you the truth or is he lying?

he can't be telling the truth because he would be lying to you...that is, he would be being honest about lying. and he can't be lying, because then he would be telling the truth...that is, he would be a truthful liar. thus it is impossible to tell whether he is telling the truth or not. this paraox is a little overdone, don't you think.
