The article claims that 'In British English slang, a plum is a common word for someone who acts like a fool. ' I know that the word can be used in phrases like 'a plum job', meaning a highly desirable one, or 'he's got a plum in his mouth', meaning an affected 'upper class' accent of British English. Those are backed up by the Oxford English Dictionary. But I have never heard of plum being used to describe someone who acts like a fool, and neither has the OED. Admittedly 'prune' (dried plum) is used to describe somebody who is disliked or foolish, but that's a stretch; if that's the closest and nobody else can explain otherwise, maybe the comment should be deleted.
