Fewer is a word used in place of less when you want to sound like you majored in English at college, but will more likely end up making you look like a pompous asshole.
According to grammar nazis, there is a rule that “fewer” only modifies countable nouns and that “less” can only modify mass (uncountable) nouns. However, this "rule" is just one of the many superfluous decisions made in the 18th-century by pretentious douchbags who felt that certain things were mistakes simply because they didn't seem elegant or proper enough.
Despite what they say, the rule is not even commonly followed. This is probably because not everyone is anal retentive enough to quibble over arbitrary details that have little to do with how the language is actually understood and used by normal people.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
