1. Used to describe potential failure in a given situation if a particular course of action is taken.
2. When you have done something exceptionally stupid causing you to have no progress toward resolution when attempting to solve a problem.
The concept being that it would be stupid, dangerous, and not to mention uncomfortable to step on your own dick. Furthermore, continued forward movement while stepping on one's own dick might cause additional harm to said member, while at the same time you are physically held back because as you proceed forward the forward movement is impeded by said foot on said dick.
1. "If we try to solve problem X by doing thing Y it'll be like we're stepping on our own dicks."
2. "I was sawing that 2 x 4 with that rusty ass hand saw you gave me and it was like I was stepping on my own dick. Where's the motherfucking circular saw?"
First heard by me in Ithaca, NY about 10 years ago.

A bastardization of the idiom "Toot my own Horn" but emphasizing a narcissism equivalent to wanting to have sex with yourself. Used ironically to brag.
Person 1: I don't mean to toot my own dick but I think this is the best painting I have ever made and better than what anyone else will ever make.
Person 2: Keep it up and eventually that ego will expand to the point it collapses and you devolve into an asshole.

To be foiled by your own advantage(i.e., explosives prematurely explode).
The history of the phrase comes from the uses of a petard in a seige (a petard is a volitile early explosive capable of bringing down castle walls). To be hoisted is to be lifted or sent up, which is generally what would happen to you if you were near a petard when it goes off (and that's if you got off lucky).
The term, "Hoisted on my own petard" is incorrect (unless of course you were pulled up while on a petard, but that'd be clinicly stupid) in that the meaning is altered. This bastardization is built upon the assumtion that a petard is a spear.

Sergeant- "Hoisted by my own petard."
