The term originates from the game that became popular in 2020, "Among Us". When used outside of the game the term has been further extended to mean when someone says or does something that reveals something bad or sinister about themselves unintentionally. The political twitch streamer Hasanabi uses it frequently.
Matt Gaetz: The New York Times is running a story that I traveled with a 17 year old woman. This is verifiably false.
Hasan: He just said "17 year old woman". Kind of a self report.

Someone being Interviewed: Israel has killed 63 children this is horrible.
Hannity: Maybe Hamas shouldn't have shot missiles from hospitals and schools. If someone attacked the U.S., it would be all hands on deck.
Hasan: "Oh dude we would murder every baby in the region if an American city was harmed" is not an argument you can make for what the morally correct action to take is in this circumstance. You're only self reporting that you would do worse war crimes than what Israel is currently engaging in. That's psychopathic.

Get the Self-Report mug.A term that originated from the 2018 game Among Us, in which it would describe a player reporting a dead body that they themselves had killed; its use has since been expanded to describe any action by a person that unnecessarily draws attention to something negative about themselves. It is similar to a Freudian slip, but it does not require the person to make an accidental error; their words or actions are typically deliberate, and the person may already be perfectly aware of the negative connotations of their conduct.
Original Use
Player 1: I found this body in the communications room.
Player 2: I checked the vitals monitor a few seconds ago and no one was dead, this kill must have just happened.
Player 3: Is this a self-report?
Current Use
Person A: I like when people post about funny things they do to get out of doing work at their jobs, it really makes everyone seem a bit more human.
Person B: Fair, although the self-report can often get a person fired if they post using their actual name, so I wouldn't recommend joining them anytime soon, okay?
