One-Sided Paper

In a lecture in Networking… granted the teacher is Chinese or something and seems to struggle with English in a sense.. but… Im pretty sure if there was such a thing as one-sided paper, it would be a world-wide thing? Not just in China?

What I’m getting at here is that our teacher seems to believe there is such a thing as one-sided paper. Now. How would this work? Surely everything in existance has to have more than one side to have a physical state? Lets work this out… if there was only one side… there would have to be a void in time and space on the other side, as there would be nothing there… but… because there isn’t another side, there isn’t even another side for the void to exist and so would create some sort of paradox in the space time continum?

What if you somehow worked out how to move the paper… obviously you couldn’t pick it up as there is no sides to hold onto… but lets say you managed to move it - What would happen to everything behind it? Would everything disolve and fall through a crack in time or something? As nothing can survive in pure nothing-ness - what even is pure nothing? Maybe the space between 2 parallel worlds? As stated on Dr Who, there is absolutely nothing inbetween parallel universes… not light, no time, no gravity, no nothing - just -nothing-.

As you can tell I’m pretty darn confused. If someone can work out a plausable way as to how one-sided paper could exist in physical form I would like to hear it…

    You know, i think all this shows is that he’s a complete moron, I dont think you have to worry about paradox’s or the end of the world

    What if hes North Korean and this is there plan and THIS IS the end of the world? Thanks for manking me worry MORE! hehe

    I think the last thing that they are going to use is paper as a weapon, unless you can insert a plutonium rod into it i doubt it would be any use

  4. Lloyd Says:

    Here you go, you’re getting confused. How can you insert plutonium rods into something one sided? Inserting something would require it to have volume, and thus, more than one side. Your arguement is completely unplausable.

    And anyway - its paper - its perfect - who would expect paper as a wmd?

  5. myles Says:

    ok, i’m going to say it again because that’s how completely you missed the point….

    Unless they can insert a plutonium rod (which for the reasons you stated they can’t) it’s not going to be much of a wmd is it….

  6. Lloyd Says:

    maybe they plan on all standing on one side - er - i mean THE one side of a big sheet of paper, and somehow moving their enemies into the great void / space time continum / paradox / space between parallel universe area (somehow - im pretty sure there would be atleast one guy working on how that can happen) - and then wipe everyone from the face of existance!

    Only problem is what they would do after with the paper, they couldnt put it down as it would make the world evaporate or something… in my view… it needs some work

    Oh my gawd we are all going to get sucked into nothingness by a giant onesided piece of paper with a void on the otherside by koreans, you made me come out of my cave for this!!!!
