Gornian Syntax (v2.7) | By Andrew M. Cavallo

This book is, for better or worse, a ramble through various jokes, paradoxes, puzzles, musical compositions, poems, memories, dialogues, mathematical-philosophical theories, and more. Of course, many pages are simply me ambling joyfully through thickets of Gornian self-defeating sentences.¹ A probably-definite goal is humor.² 

Aside from systematic irrationality, there is nothing remotely systematic in my presentation.

1. A reference to the late computer scientist Saul Gorn. Many of the self-defeating sentences in this book were taken from Gorn’s Compendium of Rarely Used Clichés. ↩︎
2. Sorry—I couldn’t resist! ↩︎
