Profoundness, presumed?

This page triggers a lot of thoughts in, perhaps idle, minds. The statement written is true, somewhat disturbingly so. For the statement to be true, it has to be witty first. For that to be witty, it has to be true in a strange fashion, which it does. This is a peculiar circularity that carefully avoids being a contradiction. And because of such a brilliant "play" with text, it qualifies being postmodern. This completes the second loop of circularity, namely the requirement for the statement to be true, in a non-contradictory fashion. If one can visualise the "play", it would look like this! What do you say?

That is so great that it inspired me to vandalise that page, resulting in an even neater circle.
