Recursive

A word describing a paradox in which a situation or event inherently repeats itself for what can only be assumed to be an infinite number of times.

Person 1: Did you see the Urban Dictionary page for recursive? It’s pretty meta!

Person 2: Yeah, but I didn’t really understand it. I think I need an example.

Person 1: Well, imagine this:

Person 1 says, “Did you see the Urban Dictionary page for recursive? It’s pretty meta!“

Then, Person 2 says, “Yeah, but I didn’t really understand it. I think I need an example.”

Then Person 1 says, “Well, imagine this:

Then, Person 2 says, “Yeah, but I didn’t really understand it. I think I need an example.”
