Original Post
Riddles & Paradoxes
So, this is a thread for you to post paradoxical, mind-blowing questions about anything. Keeping in mind that you must stay on-topic, limiting your posts to either make your own paradox or to deal with a proposed one.
To give it a start, I'll give you one of mine:
If I told you to walk to a certain point (lets say its 100 meters away), in a straight line, provided that, after each and every step you take, your speed is halved, would you ever reach the point I asked you to reach?
The ''answer'' for this might imply that some things we believed to be coherent are actually not. But that might just be me.

You don't reach the point if you're allowed a finite time.
