abstract
  • It typically begins with the question "What is...", or "Do you remember...", or some variation thereof. Then, the subject will announce a single bit of information, which can, at any given time, relate to between anywhere from to possible events in your life. The subject will then continue to recall various memories while prompting the victim to supply further information. The process continues until the story is completed. A special division of psychology (crackpot) has recently investigated this phenomenon and come to the conclusion that, during most cases, both victim and subject are trapped in a paradox. Predictably, they named this the grandmother paradox, because had they named it anything else, the title of this article would have been different.
