If...
I won't take it lying down!
I'm not gonna sit here and take it!
I won't stand for it!
I won't bend the knee on this!
I won't bow to your demands!

Natural light can be in all colors except from black, right? I mean not the normal black light, but like… literal color black light.
Dunno if this counts as more as a paradox or a brain cell blip, so here is another one: if I say ‘I am lying about this sentence’

And the butterfly effect as well.
I've spend way to long thinking about these.
