Question

看老友记的时候看到一句台词“what a tool" 不太明白
RT 是俚语么
就是 what a tool 一字不差 好像是用在评论一个人的时候

Answer 1

According to Wikipedia,the slang usage of the word tool became popular in the 1990's.Its usage even seeped into late night television.In one particular skit,Jimmy Fallon dressed up as Carson Daly,a popular MTV VJ in the late '90s,and referred to himself as being a "massive tool."
A tool can also be someone who just seems lame or is completely unoriginal.They are so used to conforming that they don't seem like they can think for themselves or think independently from what's popular.
Tools have also been accused of trying too hard--expelling way too much effort in an attempt to fit in or join the mainstream or non-mainstream (whichever the case may be).Thus,sometimes also being labeled a wannabe or poser.
综上所述,tool就是这样一种人：说话很冷（冷笑话的冷）,没有原创性,努力向赶潮流又适得其反,结果弄巧成拙
