Skeptical Looks

I hate formalities. However, I think it would be quite rude to give strangers a chance to perv me without introducing myself. So I'm Tom. There we are. Glad to get that out of the way.
Several months ago, I came up with the bright idea of starting a blog. This was met by slightly skeptical looks, as one smart alec said to me, "Okay Tom. Will you be making this blog before or after the YouTube Channel, Podcast and television show which you were also supposed to be making?" That comment was the cause of a slap around the lug for the other lad, and amid all of the excitement I completely forgot about making a blog... Until now.

You wouldn't believe how long I spent trying to come up for a name for this blog. It's been said that you should never judge a book by it's cover. Nothing has been said yet about a blog and it's title though, and in fear of being ridiculed and judged harshly, I sat for approximately 183 seconds and decided on 'Tom Foolery' as opposed to 'Peeping Tom' as 'Peeping Tom' made me sound too much like a 58 year old paedophile from Ipswich. I couldn't have this as I'm not 58 and certaintly not a paedophile. In fact, I actually searched for the definition of 'Tom' on Urban Dictionary and this is what it said.

"A sexy beast. 'Toms' are known to be genius' and to be extremely skilled and gifted in the field of literature. Commonly seen without a shirt due to their exemplary physique. 'Toms' also are known to have great moral values and being very sensitive to a womans needs."


Who am I to argue with Urban Dictionary?

I'm not quite sure exactly what I'm going to do with this blog. I'll most probably post my ideas, and give a rant every now and then, which will consist of things which will most commonly be incomprehensible or just plain uninteresting. However, I'll allow you, the lovely people of the Internet to decide, as it isn't my job to judge, but be a stereotypical blog owner who believes that the world revolves around him. Also, don't be afraid to get in touch. I love talking to new people. So long as they're not 58 and from Ipswich. In that case, I tend to have a minor distrust and prejudice for them...

Tom
