lol... its an interesting paradox, but not an interesting thread topic

tdub is just not made for this kind of deep thought... your careless posting could have overloaded the collective thinking/processing power and caused tdub to have seizures until it just imploded upon itself...

or maybe it was just a poor thread topic... [/melodrama]

Pinocchio is made of wood which means he should weigh the same as a duck which means he's a witch which means ...

If Pinocchio *believes* his nose will grow, then he's not lying and so his nose won't grow.

If Pinocchio *believes* his nose will not grow, then he's lying and so his nose will grow.

By rule, if he tells the truth nothing happens
if he tells a lie his nose grows

so his nose tells us if what he says is the same as what he believes

but here what he is saying is a statement of what will happen in the future
if Pinocchio believes that his nose will grow then its not a lie, even if it doesnt happen
for example i can tell you the i will get laid tonight, but if it doesnt happen its not technically a lie
so the problem here is that we do not know what he truly believes
therefore the truth and lie factor doesnt apply if he really believes that his nose will grow

^^ Oh shit, made me spit beer thru my nose.

I once read about 50 posts on a discussion of weather or not the damned plane would fly. Its hysterical at how dumb some people are.
