"I do [think Snape is a hero], though a very flawed hero.
An anti-hero, perhaps.
He is not a particularly likeable man in many ways.
He remains rather cruel, a bully, riddled with bitterness and insecurity –
and yet he loved, and showed loyalty to that love and, ultimately, laid down his life because of it."

I suddenly remembered this question that my sis asked me some time ago. It’s a question that her lecturer asked in a workshop. It almost drove me crazy. There’s a name for this type of thing, some of you may have heard of it, it’s called Liar’s Paradox. Here’s it:

A Cretian said, “All Cretians lie.”

Please answer this, is this statement true?

If your answer is ‘Yes, this statement is true.” That means you are saying that all Cretians lie. But the statement is made by a Cretian, which would mean that he is lying that all Cretians lie. So is the statement still true??

If your answer is ‘No, this statement is not true.” That means you are saying that all Cretians do not lie. And the statement is made by a Cretian, which would mean that he is not lying that all Cretians lie. So is the statement is still false??

Wahahaha. Feeling a headache coming on? It happened to me, too. ^^ Please don’t burn too many of your brain cells over this, it’s just for leisure.

Here’s a normal(?) quiz:
Arrange these five into order, with the first one as your favourite.
-Water
-Snow
-Mountain
-Train
-Flower
***********don’t cheat yourself***********
They represent the qualities you value most in your gf/bf
Water – Fate
Snow – Character
Mountain – Body
Train – Sexual ability
Flower – Looks
***Not I say one arh - though it’s quite true (for some ppl)***

Btw, sorry for not updating for quite some time. It’s not that nothing happened, it’s just that some things couldn’t and shouldn’t be made public and are pretty personal. And due to the fact that this is not one of the totally obscure blogs which no one knows, and despite the small number, still there are readers so of course I don’t want to offend people (I very gia si T.T), so I would only post when I’m free, have safe + interesting things to share, or when I 心血来潮or something.
