Forgive the linguist in me (I did work on speech recognition for 8 years), but the expression is "painting ourselves into a corner". You can't paint yourself into anything else, or it's a broken metaphor :) I saw this particular expression used wrongly a few times in the book.

Talk to Tim, this is his sentence. As far as I can say, we have "Zahnat se do kouta" - chase yourself into a corner. Which is also a non-sense as you cannot chase yourself. But still it is widely used here and has the right meaning of doing wrong mistakes yourself that you are then sorry for.
