Normally when people say, "Make a fool out of yourself," that's not what they mean. Don't pick things apart too much.Sojourner said:

Probably a good 20 times a day. It depends what I'm doing. At work has to be the worst occassion. I managed to take the knife-rack off the wall the other day.
Sojo you make me LOL :lol:

Reticent I like this poll, I was thinking of posting something like this myself but I'm not sure how to post a poll. "Don't wan't to make a fool of myself" .
I have at least 1-5 foolish moments each day for sure. And I would consider them in tearms of not learning from my mistakes as well.
When I make a new mistake, I usually don't let it bother me to much.
But I still try to avoid the new mistakes as much as the old ones.

Sojourner's at least up to the "1-5" category for today. If only for not recognizing the difference between being a fool and making a fool of yourself.

Where I come from it means to make yourself look like an idiot, i.e. act stupid, do something stupid or look silly in front of others.

Same here. Some people here like to use that phrase and that's always what it means.Monkeydust said:
Well, if you pick some things apart, they lose their meaning.Sojourner said:
Where I come from the term makeing a fool of yourself usally means doing something like wetting yourself in public or crashing into a parked car. I made a fool of myself yesterday when I stabed myself in the hand on accident, my nephew even made a remark that I was stupid for doing it.
I find it interesting that one of the definitions for fool is someone with a marked propensity or fondness for something. For instance, I am a fool for not makeing a fool of myself .
I am a fool for this thread reticent .
Sojo I hope you are not a fool for politicians, I think most of them are rather foolish myself .
