Whenever I see this scenario pop up no one ever thinks to just ask a simple question they already know the answer to. What’s two plus two? What color is my shirt? Is ‘The Fifth Element’ quite possibly the best movie ever made?* But nooooo, we gotta get all witty, with the paradoxes n’ wordplay n’ shit. Of course, to encounter such a quandary in the first place would mean somehow managing to stumble into a fairytale, and then being stupid enough to wander into a forest or maze or something, so, you know, probably not the brightest minds working the problem.

*Yes, yes it is.
