I actually got to use Xeno's Paradox in a Delta Green game, of all things. 
Someone was reaching out very, very slowly to touch something that they 
thought might be an egg (my Alien references earlier had been effective). I 
recounted "You reach out... your hand is a foot away from it... six inches 
away from it... three inches... you can't touch it! Xeno's Paradox!" 
Everyone laughed, and then we all looked at each other, surprised that all 
five of us had gotten it.
