What would happen if you told Pinocchio to say that his nose will now grow.
Heres what I came up with:
P: My nose will now grow
nothing has happened, so his nose will not grow, but he has therefore told the truth in his nose growing, so it wouldn't grow, but then he would be telling a lie, and it would grow, but then he wouldn't be telling a lie, and it would grow.

I can do that all day, and the same thing happens..


endless loop

Would his head explode?

What would happen?

Because many things have noses that grow when you lie.
