Solipsism [SOL-ip-siz-um]
(n.)
-Extreme preoccupation with and indulgence of one's feelings, desires, etc.
Used in a sentence:
“Her solipsism was not the loud, brash sort, but the quiet, ecclesiastical kind—like a cathedral built entirely for the purpose of echoing her own opinions.”
Used in a sentence:
“Cozy pajamas, hot cocoa, and a fortress of sofa cushions and heavy blankets got her through the worst of the flu; she was now feeling frobly-mobly, which falls somewhere between wamblecropt and ready to rock out at a kung fu karaoke party.”
