Tool
Quick Definition: A tool is someone who is being used or otherwise taken advantage of. Tooling someone is the act of taking advantage of someone else and making them look like a fool in the process.
Full Definition:
A tool is simply another word for an AFC who is being used. Orbiters are generally tools. The word “tool” has a derogatory term, and this definition rightly gives the sense of that feeling. The reason for the condescending meaning of being a “tool” is that the subject being taken advantage of sometimes doesn’t even know they are taken advantage of. Worse yet, an AFC may know he’s being taken advantage of, but goes along with it. Many a times have we heard newbies say, “I had the biggest crush on a really hot girlfriend of mine, but she sees me as only a friend. But I’d rather have her as a friend that not have her in my life at all.”.
Just because someone is a tool, it doesn’t always mean an artist should treat him like one. Pickup instructors (the good ones, at least) are coaches that plant a seed in a AFC’s head that one day, perhaps they can also awake from their tool-ness and take control of their lives.
Usage:
HiGuy is a total tool if he’s letting his ex girlfriend dictate what he’s doing this weekend
