Unstoppable Force vs. Immovable Object
I have been thinking about this paradox all day today and decided to finally look it up on the internet to see what the collective wisdom is on this issue.
According to Wikipedia, logic dictates that ultimately the two cannot exist in the same universe.
Case closed.

Epilogue: Paradoxically, according to the laws of physics as we currently understand them, the unstoppable force and the immovable object are made up of the same stuff -- infinite mass -- both of which would ultimately collapse into themselves due to gravity and create a spacetime singularity, which is what the universe was at the beginning of the Big Bang.
Useless Trivia: In a Knight Rider episode (Trust doesn't Rust), the paradox is wrongly attributed to Zeno of Elea and its meaning is intentionally distorted.
