Someone who does not question social conventions. Someone who is easily influenced by government, politicians, TV, society, etc. Tools tend to be close-minded individuals.

1.) Larry told me what a great job I'm doing again today. He is such a tool.
2.) Congressman (Mark) Green (R-WI) will say anything to get some buzz about his campaign for governor. What a tool!

An individual (typically sheltered white suburban kids from upper middle class families) who feels that they need to follow all the latest trends and fads religiously, and pretend to be someone they're not in order to be accepted by others, making themselves look like complete idiots. Similar to sheeple.
Tool: "I was camping outside the apple store the night before the latest Iphone release, and my man-bun fell out, so I had to put on my fedora #badhairday"

A douche-bag teenage boy who wears only name brand clothing, follows every trend, uses 'fag' as his primary insult, thinks he is cooler than everybody else, relies on "that's what she said" jokes, talks loudly about how many girls he's gotten it on with, has a poor sense of humor, and is just an all-around ass-hole. Usually reasonably wealthy/spoiled. Often accompanied by several sluts.

One who is completely oblivious to the fact that no one likes them. Tool's come in many different forms, however most tool's tend to have a picture of every angle possible of themselves on the computer.

Someone who is easily manipulated by others, because they substitute the judgment and/or approval of others for their own. The others can be admired friends, strangers or potential mates whose approval the tool seeks. Especially in interpersonal situations, the tool will seek approval from the other, but fail to exercise their own judgment about whether the other person is good or right for them. Alternately, the tool will allow public figures, advertising, or other mass media to replace or form their own opinions on any number of subjects -- most evident in fashion and music choices (often fads or heavily marketed products of suspect quality or style). Somewhat less obvious are tools whose opinions on current events are parroted from sources thought by the tool to be reliably correct -- if you don't follow current events, or didn't come across the original source, you might not realize they hadn't actually given their opinion much thought beyond memorizing the highlights. The recurring theme is that the tool avoids using their own judgment, sometimes even failing to acquire an ersatz opinion; instead just seeking approval. The tool is an open field for anyone who would like to use them for their own purposes. When they choose very poorly, it is obvious to most that the tool has been manipulated and was foolish to have allowed it. Usually singular in actual usage, but sometimes phrases like 'tool shed' or 'hardware store' are used to refer to groups seen as clearly lacking common sense.
a) Did you hear that guy? "Brown is the new black"? What a tool.
b) That tool paid for her fancy dinners all over town for *at least two months* and only kissed her like once!
c) staff in a hotel: "Who rented out the Pacific Room this weekend?" "'Real Estate Riches' seminar, free admission." "Ha, that'll be a tool barn."

an obnoxious person who usually "bro's out" plays guitar for attention, and pretends to like those who like them and then completely screws them over.
today i saw this complete douche walking down the street, playing overrated songs on his accoustic guitar, and hitting on 3 underclassmen at once; he was such a tool
