His real name is Thomas Farley...he was the greatest most loving friend that anyone could ask for. Thomas is funny and most of all accepting of many. he had good personal relationships with all his friends. He was killed by a retard who we all hope will spend the rest of his life in jail. With him there was never a boring moment.
Thomas the promise is always doing something crazy and halarious! When ever you're with him you will always be too busy laughing............LOLOLOLOL

The most sacred of vows. It is done when two people hook their right pinkys together and one says "I pinky promise...." followed by what they are promising.

This is not something to fuck around with. A pinky promise is serious. You don't break a pinky promise, that's just shitty...

...it's like kicking someone in the shin, which will happen to you if you break a pinky promise!
Jon pinky promised Bob that he would remember to give him a ride to the airport.

Jon forgot about taking Bob to the airport, and Bob missed his flight.

That afternoon Jon's wife, mother, father, and the secretary he was having an affair with all died in a fire during an open discussion about Jon's affair. Jon found all of this out, and then was kicked in the shin and mauled to death by a bear.

This all happened to Jon because he broke a pinky promise.

It's not just a promise. It's a really special promise never to be broken. A promise made by an orphan or an unlucky person with high hopes for a Christmas miracle. Christmas promises can make Christmas miracles.
You can't break a Christmas promise just cause Drake and Josh are in jail for something they do.
