Fun Riddle: Solve the Clues to Discover the Mystery Object Ending in X

In summary: So it seems that this object needs to do a bunch of things that don't seem to make sense, in order to be complete. Maybe it's a treasure map that leads to a paradox? Or maybe it's a quest that requires traversing through many paradoxical situations in order to obtain the treasure?

Could the answer be a treasure map? Or a quest? With each of the sentences describing the steps needed to get through each stage?

As for ending with an X, most treasure maps have the treasure located on the map with an "X" symbol.

Not trying to be racist in any way but is it possibly a "mex," as in the person? All referring to border hopping.

PARADOX

A paradox is a statement or group of statements that leads to a contradiction or a situation that defies intuition. And... it ends in "X"
