v. To bang one's head against the wall (literally or figuratively) while going around in circles dealing with obstinate entities on some endeavor.
I had to go to my boss, then accounting, legal, back to accounting, back to my boss, to operations, legal, and back to my boss again on this project. I've been banging my head in circles all afternoon. <bang (one's) head in circles>

A phrase that sums up the uroboros of fuckery everyone endures as a human being on this planet.
Usually said in response to a friend recounting a fucked up situation when no words suffice.

This occurs on the Urban Dictionary editing page (probably other places as well) while an editor is waiting for new defs to load for the editing process. It might be the direct result of slow internet connections, or ancient, decrepit computers.
maggie: this sucks!
aggie: what's that?
maggie: i was editing defs on UD, and all of a sudden all i see is this circular graphic thingy that goes around and around and around and-
aggie: oh, i see that once in a while. i call it the "Loading-on-White circle of death. when i see it either i have to refresh, or i have to close my browser and relaunch it. it's a real pain in the ass.
maggie: but i'm a dedicated editor? what do i do?
aggie: dumby, i just told you! either refresh the page or relaunch your web browser!
maggie:, er, thanks a lot. may you forever be under the influence of the loading-on-white circle of death forever and ever, amen.

A party held on a train serving the Circle Line on the London Underground. Because Circle Line trains travel in a continuous loop, a party once begun on a train can continue indefinitely until the Underground shuts down for the night. Circle Line parties (or CLPs) are usually scheduled in advance and in recent years have been publicised via the Internet. The first CLP is thought to have been organised by an anarchic group called the Space Hijackers on 10 March 1999.
Permission is not sought from London Underground or the British Transport Police for the parties. Parties have typically included drinking, playing music and pole dancing. Until 2008, none of these activites was banned on the Underground; however police have broken up parties in the past.
The future of Circle Line parties is uncertain as drinking alcohol on the Underground (and other public transport in London) was banned by London mayor Boris Johnson with effect from 1 June 2008. To commemorate the event, a Circle Line party was held on the evening of May 31. The event attracted several thousand partygoers, was overwhelmingly good-natured and only about 17 people were arrested. However, police broke up the parties before the deadline of midnight.

A game in which gay men let each other know they are interested in butt sex... If one guy makes a circle and the other guy looks and giggles it intimidates gay butt sex between the two lovers
James likes the way Christopher's butt looks in his tight jeans so he makes sure to flash a circle finger game to let Christopher know he wants his hard penis inside his butthole.
