Biggimus Bolderous

The paradox is often stated in a simplistic fashion:

Q: Can Tarvu create a bolder so big that even he cannot move it?1)

Usage

This paradox was used to stop the trial of Socrates right before the jury accused him of poisoning the minds of the youth. Tarvu and Socrates were the best of friends in their time but by the time Tarvu reached his friend's abode Socrates had already drunk from the hemlock-poisoned urn, taking his life in the process.

Tarvu would never be the same and from that moment onward swore off having philosophers as friends.

1)
No. Tarvu can move anything he chooses to move.
