I watched the Dark Knight last night and couldn't concentrate on the rest of the movie because I was trying to fathom what would happen...

You'd still be equally as gay.

Newton showed that for every force there is an equal and opposite force. If you stand on the ground and do a pushup with your cock, you also push against the ground. If you push up with your cock in space (also known as the flaccid vlad, space cock push up, and screaming meany), you push away with the cock with the same momentum (mass x velocity) as the cock, because as you pushed with the cock, it pushed you as well.
Now, if the cock is infinitely large such that it's mass becomes infinite (think mr. fantastic), it would require an infinite (or 'irresistable') force to overcome the resulting infinite momentum and make it move (ie a dark hole of a vagina). But here's the thing: Newton says that the infinite force must have an equal and opposite infinite force.
If you would make the infinitely massive cock move, you would need second infinitely massive cock for the equal and opposite force pair to operate against. Which means double pen. So you see, the only place this could possibly even be tested is, of course, in my pants.
Feel free to allow your nephews to quote this in 9th grade Science class. Gift of me the paederast with the openly gay gaping mouth portal.

I would have blown Issac Newton. A lot, I mean all the time. So much that "ballistic trajectory" would have a completely different meaning today.

the force would go around the object.
the force would remained unstopped and the object unmoved.

Genko, I like that answer; it's similar to one a Ph.D physics prof gave. His terminology was a little different but certainly not better. He basically said that one or both of the terms (immovable object / irresistable force) were simply 'not allowed'.
Willartstorg, I like the ring of your "existence" statements. I also agree with your 'bottom line' and would certainly not get into an argument over a riddle. We could bat this back and forth all night but in my (humble) opinion, all we would be doing is moving to different points on the circumference... or sphere. Please see previous comment.
Here's another one: the biggest container in the universe. But what's outside of that? ...and what's outside of that? Infinity? Back to linguistics. We say a word like infinity or infinite yet how many have a full understanding of it; once again, we're using the 'limited' (english language) to somehow try to explain the unlimited. (pretty futile)

Well I don't think this is the answer you're looking for, but they're mutually exclusive. Only one can ever exist. If a force is truly irresistable, no object is truly immovable, and if an object is truly immovable, no force is irresistable.
=========
The existence of an entity does not preclude the existence of any other entity. Immovability is based upon the movability factor of another object. If something is considered irresistable, it cannot be resisted, and is therefore ultimately powerful.
That made no sense, huh?
If God is all-powerful, can he make a rock so big even he can't lift it?
Bottom line: The whole argument is foolish.

Most students hear this classic paradox from a science teacher in maybe grade 9 or 10. At first, I would repeat it in hopes of seeming all profound and shit. A couple decades later, after reading a good deal of philosophy -- both Eastern and Western -- I finally figured it out.
On reading about a paradox or even a good riddle, we're meant to learn that words, the english language, will only ever take us so far. Some things (love, peace, nirvana) are best experienced and not analysed or talked about forever.
Here's a quick analogy then I'll shut up: A discussion or problem solving of any kind moves you from one point on the circle to some other point out on the circumference. The real goal lies at the center! There are different ways or techniques on how to move from the circumference towards the center. Hopefully everyone finds his/her way.
The english language is hopelessly inadequate for any sort of ultimate understanding... as pointed up by the riddle on which this post is based. The hilarious pic is as good an answer as any. All the best jokes come from the center. Anyway, this was a nice little break away from Gruberfest.

Breaks are good things, but Grueberfest this year is fucking awesome.

It would make a noise similar to the sound of one hand clapping, unless there was no one within earshot.
