Noted Phrase Tomfoolery Should Be Changed To Tomcruisery

In case you haven't heard, Paramount has had enough of Cruise's shenanigans and finally cut ties with him and his partner Paula Wagner.

Stills from the interview with Oprah that made America realize that Tom isn't amusing, and ultimately led to the atrophy of he and Paramount's feeble relationship.

The phrase Tomfoolery is actually a noun means silly behaviour of no great wit. It originated as a term for a shitty jester, kind of like how we call today's shitty wrestlers jobbers, but since then has evolved into the literal action that this person takes.

In his own way, Tom Cruise has made America realize that he's not funny, clever, nor anything resembling that of someone with an amusing personality. Since most of America knows Tom, I petition to update today's lingo and change Tomfoolery to Tomcruisery. They'll get it.
