I asked him what he meant by "tool", and he told me he'd tell me later.  Can someone please define "tool" for me in the context that he used it, please?

Basically a synonym for "idiot"\n\nhttp://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=tool

I think this is a case of a writer, or his editor, searching for a word and not coming up with the word he intended. I think he was looking for "tapped," which can mean selected, but his mind gave him "tabbed" instead. It's not the making of a noun into a verb that is the problem. That's done all the time in informal English. It's just not a good word choice.

Like everyone else I would need more of a clue than you've given.\n\nI tell you what ars*k me something else.\n\nWhich reminds me, I went for a job in a Blacksmiths and he asked me if I had ever shoed a horse, I send no but I had once told a pig to get lost.

cheri_da_rn: he meant carpentry!\n\nI wonder, was it before or after he got married to Mary Magdalene? You couldn't really hold it against the guy if he was already married and THEN found out that he was supposed to be the Messiah, and die on the cross, etc.

Other answers are literal, I think the slang is translated as "How have they given it to you?" Or, "Can you take what they're dishing out?"

There's some stuff about him in Wikipedia - link below.\n\nBut you'd need to tell us more about what definition you're talking about. "His definition" - of what?

What you didn't say was what the context of the conversation was or his demeanor when he said it. Was he agitated? Happy? Said it in a joking or satirical manner? If you feel he said it with malice. Later you should tell him 3 things you just adore about hem. then tell him it is getting overshadowed by what he called you. Tell him that you don't appreciate it, and why he said it. I don't know how many years, months or weeks you have invested in this relationship but to blow it over one word.........kinda silly.

i am a naturally easygoing person. my dream of becoming a freelancer has now become a reality. Now I have become even more carefree than before, with no worries. \n\nsorry i didn't translate the last sentence, but im not sure if my translation is 100% accurate.\n\nedit: i just re-read it, and i think it means: hey, that guy looks familiar.\n\nonly it seems to have nothing to do with the rest of the excerpt.

I'm with the guy who asked the question

No, it's all good.  You were right to face him with something to think about that may help him.  It sounds like constructive criticism that offended someone who needed to hear the truth.

Or maybe he wants to say that he is very confused, so he can't do at the moment what you have asked him for.\nOr...\nsorry, I do not cope very well with the interpretation of phrases in english, oh, believe me, it's a messed up situation!\n\nHope you appreciate the humor!\n\nKaterina

Say what? Congratulations for asking the most confusing question of the day! I've read it three times and I still haven't got a clue. Congratulations also to the gentleman above who did understand and gave you that exhaustive response. I hope you understood it and it answered your question (whatever the hell that was!)

I have never heard of it before but didn't find it offencive.  Even after it was explained by someone else.\nMaybe it wasn't this word that got the response deleted but something you'd said........\nI like it.\nI think I'll use it.  lol
