Everything you ever wanted to know about calling someone a tool

I feel it is only right to start this post with a definition, i will use the definition that originated from the UK: quite simply, a fool...thats right, i rhymed. Furthermore, any of you hipsters who thought i was posting about the band tool, no, get lost. Lots of us deal with tools in our everyday lives, some cases of tooldom are more extreme than others but the average tool is for the most part...bearable. Tools do not seem threatening but do not befriend them or else you will have to deal with a constant flow of dumb comments, them calling you bro, and constantly asking you to play hacky sack. When encountering a tool in the jungle of life there are several ways of giving them a notification that they are a tool:
1. The adjective + tool, ex. power tool, super tool

2. The tool + noun, ex. toolbox, toolfish

3. The classic "tool", ex. "No you tool, i do not want to play hacky sack"

4. The indirect tool, ex. "You are a wrench" "My dad keeps you on a workbench in the basement"

Now that you have read this post you are well equipped for survival in a land riddled with tools or your basement...

note: In no way is this post meant to discriminate against those who play hacky sack. I appreciate a good hack as much as the next guy but in some situations it can get excessive. Keep hacking,
