A factoloop is a self-referential fact — a statement that loops back on itself by being a fact about its own factuality, meaning, or irony. Often clever or paradoxical, a factoloop makes you question not just the fact, but the nature of facts themselves.
Factoid: The word factoid originally meant something not true, just repeated often. So this factoid about factoids is actually a factoloop.
