isselfiddle

Isselfiddle is a term that emerged from online communities, particularly within certain subcultures of the internet. It is often used humorously or ironically to describe a situation where a person engages in an activity or expresses a thought that is perceived as self-indulgent, overly introspective, or perhaps a bit absurd. The word itself is a portmanteau, combining "itself" with "fiddle," suggesting a self-contained and perhaps trivial preoccupation.

The usage of "isselfiddle" is generally informal and is not a recognized term in academic or formal discourse. It often appears in online forums, social media, and chat applications. Its meaning can be subjective, depending on the context and the specific community using it. Some might employ it to gently tease a friend for overthinking a minor issue, while others might use it to describe a creative endeavor that is deeply personal and perhaps not easily understood by outsiders. The term carries a connotation of playful self-awareness, acknowledging a minor eccentricity or a personal quirk. It is rarely used in a malicious or critical way, usually implying a lighthearted observation.
