doing a Claudius

To pretend to be a dumb/weak/stuttering idiot, in order to fool your enemies

Comes from Emperor Claudius, who survived this way the tyrannical purges of Emperor Tiberius and the mad reign of Caligula.

Thus he was able to survive and become emperor himself in the end

Bill may seem like an harmless idiot, but he’s just doing a Claudius in order to fool Frank and fuck his girlfriend while he’s at work

Be careful with Tom, he may seem harmless, but he’s actually doing a Claudius

human doing

A critical perspective term from a mindfulness point of view wherein folks see themselves as functions or things rather than allowing a simple state of being to exist.

Once you go from being a human doing to allowing yourself to exist as a human being, you’ll never go back!
