Na....needs to stop listening to Bill.Needs to look at himself in all honesty.
hate to be a corrector but it's "hoist with one's own petard"...a petard was a small bomb used for blowing up gates and walls when breaching fortifications (dating back to 1500s) and to be hoist with it implies being blown into the air with your own bomb. More generally it's an expression denoting being injured by the device that you intended to use to injure others.
But your allusion (via this thread's title) to Shakespeare's 'inventing' the phrase is noted. He used it in Hamlet (1602) :
"For tis the sport to have the enginer Hoist with his owne petar".
Note: engineers were originally constructors of military engines.
