[[File:RIP Edd.jpg|thumb|250px|A loving tribute to Eddsworld,<br>Ironically the exact same thing TomSka is doing to Edd's legacy.  The only difference being Tom still hasn't pulled out.]]

{{yt|cu|Tomska|Tomska}} (aka Tom Ridgewell) is an [[unfunny|unfunny]], untalented, leech, hack, fraud, [[whiteknight|whiteknight]] that has is known for creating [[asdfmovie]], a painfully unfunny ripoff of Robot Chicken and Lazer Collection (Which are ripoffs of Stick Figures on Crack) with a target audience of [[retards|autistic, lobotomized children]].
He is most known for riding the wave of success from Eddsworld, a series created by the late Edd Gould, which he now runs.
Tom has taken it upon himself to make the new Eddsworld as far from the original as possible by making himself the new [[faggot|badass]] protagonist that always saves the day and says hilarious catchphrases.

Despite having no actual talent, [[USI|Tom takes credit for the videos]], ignoring animators, special effects artists, sound designers, cameramen and writers who did most the work.
He desperately desperately wants to be sexy, a badass and super hero.
Tom is so deluded he doesn’t understand that all he’ll ever be is a hack.

== Eddsworld (the beginning) ==

Eddsworld is an animated series created in 2004 by an animator named [[Dead|Edd Gould]].
Tom relentlessly bothered Edd and butted his way into the show in an attempt to get a taste of the fame he so desired.

Edd felt [[Pity_Sex|pity]] for Tom and let him be on the show where he remained a permanent cast member.
Tom was originally written closer to his IRL self: an angry and self-centered alcoholic with bad ideas.
When Edd died, Tom used this chance to shine and wrote himself into his own videos.
Tom's character quickly changed into a cool, suave, smooth talking, catchphrase spewing badass who saves the day every chance he gets.
At the same time Edd, once the main character, now has a couple lines per episodes that are poorly delivered. 

Since Edd died, Tom has gained access to his {{Twitter|eddsworld}}, {{yt|u|eddsworld}} and {{Facebook|eddsworld}}.
Tom exploints Edd's social media accounts every chance he gets.
At the end of Eddsworld episodes, Tom uses credits to promote the [[scam|Eddsworld Legacy project]], but we all know he only wants publicity and subs.

== Fat ==

Much to the disgust of his fans, Tomska isn't shy about discussing issues with his body.
He constantly moans about his [[moobs|flapjack titties]] but never gets off his lazy ass to do something about it.
Instead of exercising, Ska bought himself a skinny-belt and wears it in his videos to trick fans into finding him somewhat attractive.
You can see this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FN1vPSkfVkA here].
At one point he hired a fitness training but still remains fat.
It seems at this stage in his life, his only hope is playing The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man in a Ghostbusters remake.

Unless he decides to go ahead with his new movie: "[[Fat|Tomska goes large]]!"

== Exploitation of Edd Gould's death ==

<center><youtube>jkEvbOsr138</youtube></center>

Since [[Hitler|taking over]] Eddsworld, Tom has released numerous videos crying about the show Edd left him in charge of.
He's made numerous bad decisions such as turning the once charming characters into parodies of themselves, hiring crappy voice actors, writers and using horrible puns.
Just kidding, they were always bland.

However, being left with his dead best friend's legacy, Tom makes little effort to make the show the best he can.
Tom thinks of Eddsworld as just a dumb show for kids and an excuse to invoke sympathy from his fanboys.
He has failed to deliver on the promised episodes from the [[scam|Eddsworld Legacy]] donations.
So far only 4 episodes and 2 shorts (Most of them have Tom with a bigger role than Edd) have been made to date since Edd's death.
They all suck more than Tom's hunks of glob tits.

That didn't stop from from getting most the money from Indiegogo, a website that most internet douchebags use to suck money out of their pathetic fanboys.

== The Curiously large Ego of Thomas Ridgewell ==

{{quote|Allow me to make something very clear to you all: I WILL be in the new Star Wars movie. I don’t know how.. But I will http://bbc.in/17bL5rN|@thetomska 41m}}

As you have guessed by now, Tom's ego is huge!
On video blogs he claims to be a genius.
Statements like this are made by people who are insecure about themselves.

;He says he’s in the top 1%
|<youtube>tCnj-uiRCn8</youtube>
;Who would have known it takes a genius to make this?
|}

Tom even created a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFmeFDPiDcs video] that shows you how to be cool like him.
Keep in mind everyone else will think you're a social reject.

Fans believe that Tom is brave because he posts pictures and videos about his flaws.
However, anyone with the mental capacity of a squirrel realizes he only does this because he is extremely insecure, insulting himself before anyone else does.
He even attempts to create memes and animated gifs featuring himself.

== His “Girlfriend” ==
[[File:Tfw no gf.jpg|thumb|frameless|upright=1.2|alt=This might be the only proper, yet vivid demonstration of Tomska's lack of partner of neither sexes. Let's all take a moment and think about this.|Tomska's current relationship status]]

<strike>Jennifer Bingham is Tomska’s squeeze.
He met her when she was underage and mentions this fact in this video.
The fact his girlfriend was underage won't stop fangirls from kissing his ass.
His girlfriend can be seen in literally all of his videos, for the sole purpose of making him look less gay.[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Od3fSH8OamQ/]</strike>

Yeahno. Tomska and Jennifer have broken up on the 14th of July, 2013. The reason to this has simply been sugar-coated as "We drifted apart" as he has stated in the video above, <strike>you topographagnosic lowlife</strike>. To the less retarded ones of us, we have already know that Tom is an insecure faggot that has taken an interest in another pair of <small>tasteless</small> [[tits|mammary glands]] or [[ball|testicles]]. We may as well enjoy the murky uncertainties of his faggotry. An obscure and obviously not-in-first-person-view greasy $10 bill is bet on his homosexual tendencies for they have been what predominated his notifying video. Evidently and consequently, there were <small><strike>painfully insignificant</strike></small> emotional responses towards the end of Tomska's <strike><small>loveless</small></strike> relationship.

{{quote|Me and my sisters watch this.
I cry in a corner in my imagination because I used to ship them together.
My older sister screams of joy because her YouTube crush is finally single.
My little sister goes into her dark place silently; she also shipped them obsessively.|[[fantard|Sadie Alicorn]]}}

== His "Friend" ==

<center><youtube>T7JoZ7zobc0</youtube></center>

Christopher "Bing" Bingham, known as slomozovo on Youtube, is one of Tomska's "friends." He used to star in his old videos, most likely because he [[Pity_Sex|pitied the bastard,]] and branched off after a bit, focusing on his own content, probably because he realized that Tom was holding him back. He now directs music videos, interviews animators, and does skits with significantly more mature humor than that of Tom's (although that's not saying much). He, unlike Tom, does most of the work himself. Bing is also forced to associate with Tom because he's in a relationship with Bing's sister.

== The Creative Process ==

He constantly whines on Twitter about writer's block.
That's because he steals them from everyone else, which he openly admits.
His excuse for this is that every idea is somewhat stolen.
When Tom gets desperate, he goes to Twitter and Facebook asking everyone for ideas.
His excuse for this is that he is interacting with his fans, but we all know what he's up to.

== The Undeserved Success ==

Tom is constantly rewarded for his mediocre efforts.
He's featured on YouTube, Sky News and TV shows that don't understand the internet.
In his BBC appearance, he wrote a skit were he kicks ass and saves the day.
So pretty much nothing different from his other videos.

== TomSka as of today ==
{{achtung|TOMSKA FINALLY LEFT EDDSWORLD WHICH MEANS IT WONT BE SHITTY ANYMORE}}
In 2016, Tom had finally stepped down as showrunner for Eddsworld, giving the series back to Edd's family. it's a shame the fucker left on the show's 10th anniversary and replaced his spare time with 100 weekly vlogs. most of them where he bitches about Eddsworld [[Last Thursday|In 2018]] Tom had finally ended his aforementioned godforsaken vlogging series. meaning he can continue making unfunny, autistic and basically unoriginal videos on his 4 million subscriber youtube channel


== Tweets ==
