NOT A PARADOX!
Not to take the piss out of the joke, that is.
I mean the unstoppable force meets immovable wall scenario.
The unstoppable force would reflect off the immovable wall. There is nothing in the scenario that says the unstoppable force can move only in the direction it currently is.
It's easy to solve...with LOGIC!
But if the unstoppable force was moved into another direction, it would mean that the unstoppable force was actually stopped for a millisecond and was directed to another direction.
Also, unstoppable means it would continue in one direction since changing the direction it is going would mean that it is not unstoppable
YOUR LOGIC IS FUCKED, DANTE!!!
Not so. A force does not have to stop to change directions. Unstoppable does not mean that it would continue in one direction. It is even permitted in that situation for the force to slow down. It is only stated as being unstoppable; so the only assumption to be made is that nothing can stop it. Not that it couldn't slow down, speed up, change direction, etc., as long as it did not stop.
I agree with you, but just because the immovable object can't be moved, doesn't mean that the unstoppable force would reflect off of it. Its basic physics. For the IO to reflect the UF it would require enough elasticity to do so. However, the immovable quality of the IO implies rigidity, which would mean that while it couldn't be moved, it could be broken or something could penetrate it. Then again, there's the possibility that the impact of the two would result in something new, the Infinite Explosion.
I figured the breaking or penetrating argument was really just an argument of semantics, but you're right.
The main point is that it is not a paradox, or even a physical conundrum.

I don't read minds or anything, but I believe you think you are talking to a "level-headed" individual. However, according to my clock, I've been drinking tequila consistently for about 4 hours.

This is an appropriate condition to exist in.
I thought it was a bit non-sequitur, but I didn't see a problem with it.
It's probably ok.
