Wow, my age is showing! I must have composed a reply, but for some reason didn't post it, but it included (before Fal) the phrase with the pot, as my Canadian mother used it all the time. She also used "People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones", which I like a lot. Also the phrase "practice what you preach"...
I don't believe you have to be aware that you are being hypocritical to be a hypocrite. It's simply a description and does not include intent. Many hypocrites do not believe that they are such because they have a different way of thinking about it which allows them to view it as non-hypocritical. Many are honestly shocked that someone would think that. :0)
