African Child

(n) An "African Child" is an action by a respected person/group that made them lost credibility because said action was either politically motivated or preachy and not within that person/group's normal behaviour. Politicians and Journalists, for example, cannot do an African Child because political motivation is within their normal behaviour. African Childs are common among musicians, but not among Actors/Actresses. An African Child is akin to "selling out" or "finding religion" as downfalls of artists or celebrities.

American Idiot sucked, man, but it wasn't an African Child until they did a fucking musical.

numb like an African child

Expression used when your body has become so numb from the cold or drugs that you wouldn't feel bugs crawling all over you if they were.

Woman: It's cold.
Man: Well, I'd be a gentleman and give you my jacket but I'm numb like an African child.
