I bet you can't not post in this topic.
I not-post here all the time, so you lose
Double negative, so you're basically saying 'I bet you can post in this topic'.
Yes, but double negatives can also create a condition where it turns from "every action must be here to satisfy the condition" to "only once satisfies the condition."
For example
"for an hour I saw cheese" means you saw it continually for 1 hour.
"for an hour I didn't see no cheese" means you saw at least a little cheese during that hour.

Saying "You can't post here" means you can never post here
"You can't not post here" means all your posts have to be here... and like I said, I not-post here all the time, so he'd lose the bet
I actually just need to make a post to do some testing but thought I'd be clever. Or at least attempt to.
I'll just quote this
When they start discussing double negatives, can free will vs determinism be far behind?
No, but Existentialism vs. Objectivity has reared its ugly head.

I bet you can't not post in this topic.
I bet you can't not disagree to not agree to that
its a paradox, because the statement is self-contradictory.
He said "can't not" not "can't"
Funny.
