Act the fool

This quote is similar to Ludacris' song "Act a fool", from 2Fast2Furious, which means "acting like a fool, in a desperate way" aka "last resort, trump card". However, this one means "act like a fool, while you're smarter than everyone else". Or in other words, "Trolling 101". It may be similar in some situations.... =)

"Act the fool" also means, in some countries, "fazer-se de parvo".
Crowd: "haha, that guy is such a tool! Let's make fun of him!!"
Guy 1: (thinking w/ a grin) "hehe.... they think I'm a fool. I'll show them!"
Guy 2: "Yeah man.... Act the fool..." (thumbs up)

Bonhoeffer fool

A person who willingly gives up their ability to think critically, especially in groups or under authority. Not necessarily unintelligent, just morally lazy and intellectually passive. They don’t question lies, they repeat them. Challenging or questioning their beliefs is often met with ridicule or judgment, because they can’t defend their views with reason, only emotion. They’re not evil, but they make evil possible.
“He doesn’t even believe what he’s saying, he just follows whatever his ‘side’ says. Total Bonhoeffer fool.”

“She just shut me down when I challenged her view on climate change. Classic Bonhoeffer fool, dismissing facts with a sneer.”

April Fools Extended

The day after April 1st, April 2nd is considered an extension of April Fools because the implications that the jokes on the previous day were jokes, doesn’t hold substance, and thus are serious. Thus, April 2nd is barely any different from its preceding day, and jokes can be done since the time zone difference globally is affected on these two days; thus April 3rd is when the April Fools is officially over… beginning with Oceania time.
2023 will be the first year where such practice is witnessed and conducted, and will be a tradition for those who know the purpose onwards, globally.
Marc: Man yesterday was fun with our waterbug antics on the class!
Don: Yeah it was.. (Don shakes his end with Marc, attached to Don is a shocker, and Marc is shocked)
Marc: Dude what the heck was that for!!?

A concocted term, abusing the language to make a safe, normal feature sound like it’s scary, dangerous, and unfit for ordinary people.
General Chicken Wing gave a demonstration of a sporting rifle, and called it “fool semi-automatic “! LOL’z
