Circular jerk

Similar to circular logic; When people stroke themselves by stroking others. Very common in the corporate setting.

Board member: Mr. Peterson is doing a stellar job running this company. I'm so glad I cast the deciding vote to hire him.

Employee under breath: Running this company into the ground. Classic circular jerk, dude.

circular insanity

A situation which becomes a feedback loop, always returning to the point at which it started.

Person #1: "So, whadd'ya wanna do?"

Person #2: "I dunno, whadda YOU wanna do?"

Person #1: "I dunno..."

*pause*

Person #2: "So... whadda'ya wanna do?"
and so on... this is a very simplistic example.
