A Glassonian

someone whose mind is a kaleidoscope observing, reflecting, and refracting reality with sharp intelligence, chaotic creativity, and unapologetic self-awareness; a being whose humor, obsession, and surreal vision make them unreplicable, magnetic, and alive in every dimension they touch.
Being a Glassonian means seeing the absurdity in everything and then building entire worlds out of it.

Only a true Glassonian could invent languages where words mean the opposite of themselves and make it make sense

An informal fallacy in which you lambast or criticize someone for doing something unhealthy when you yourself do comparably unhealthy habits or actions. Essentially, it is hypocrisy specifically in the form of habit.
"Hey Conner, it's ridiculous how you spend hundreds of dollars on glass mousepads. That is such a waste of money, for shame!"
"How utterly preposterous of you to propose, Anthony; In actuality, you are committing the 'glass mousepad' fallacy. Why is it bad when I have unhealthy spending habits when you spend hundreds of dollars on Touhou merchandise? Why don't you practice what you preach!?"
