Actually, it was inspired by Thomas the Train. Lol. Seriously. I wrote this just as my daughters (4 and 6 years old) went to bed. They had been reading a Thomas the Train book just before bedtime and it was the first name that popped into my head. At least I didn't go with Sir Topham Hatt - sitting lazily in the back of my classroom, tuxedo arms crossed, top hat brim covering his eyes. Like a gangsta.

Glad I could add another phrase to your vocabulary. Between that and @philosophist's "subversive integrity," there's a lot to chew on!
