The statement "I always lie" is unprovable. If it were true, you would be lying saying that you always lie, then that means you tell the truth which contradicts it. Weird, huh?
-
Actually, he is lying.
If he is telling the truth, it would be a lie and thus the statement would contradict itself.
If he is lying, it means he doesn't always lie. He could be lying in this scenario, and therefore there is no contradiction.

There's always this one:
The next statement is true
The previous statement is false

This one is solvable.
You have two doors. One leads to heaven, one leads to hell. You don't know which door is which.
You have two angels. One always lies and one always tells the truth. You don't know which angel is which, or which door he is standing in front of.
You have ONE question, and one question only. What should you ask in order to know which door to go through in order to go to heaven?
If you have already heard this, please don't post. ;)

I have heard this one.

I like these:
This statement is false. (true or false?)
Generalizations are always bad. (Hmmm.)
"Only the Sith deal in absolutes." (An absolute statement spoken by a Jedi)
I hate haters. (it's so sad that you hate yourself)
You are so judgemental. (hello, pot, my name is kettle)
"When people set aside their differences to work in common effort toward a common good, when they struggle together, and sacrifice together and learn from one another -- all things are possible." (ALL THINGS? And we don't need God? Tell that to the people of Babel, Mr. President. You sound more like the proud Nebuchadnezzar than a Christian speaking to a Christian university. I like what Lincoln said. I have it on my wall at home: "It is the duty of nations as well as of men to own their dependence on the overruling power of God.")

Sith! (I know, I'm so judgemental)

What burns me about this one is that Sith actually thrive on ambiguity and equivocation, talking about a "larger view" of the Force and how good and evil are merely as point of view. Absolutes are the last thing Sith deal in, because the Dark Side clouds everything.

I must warn you, I am very good at backflips.

Argh, seriously. Obi-Wan definitely had a fail moment there.

You are the wisest man alive. (Or am I, by knowing this to be true?)

Don't you off-topic me! I was saying that "I don't know anything" is a contradicting statement.
