Funny how tools are useful. But a person who is a tool is not.

    A tool of a person is a fool who is being used by someone else. They might not be useful to you, but to who ever makes the koolaid they're drinking, they're a very good tool.

    I think that's the basic idea, but in practice it's used for people who are just generally dumb as well.

    Eh, people misuse terms all the time. It shouldn't change what it's meant to mean.
