Once you become a father at age seven, playing super dad comes naturally.

Is there any difference between those? People want to play the fool, in my opinion but the truth is that

sometimes they think it’s okay to do it too. I feel sometimes there’s a hard thing to catch when people say “Don’t play the fool”.

Also.. and. Is it just you use “the” when you mentioned it earlier in the conversation and “a” for the opposite?

How do I tell my father I’m sick and having a bad day like today?

It is true, but not complete.

You can use “the” even if “fool” was not used previously. The following meaning is implied:

Don’t play the fool (of the group).

Let me tell you: Don’t be the fool.

Don’t be a meth engineer.

How can I get information about something I want to know?
