    tomfoolery来自Tom Fool,而Tom Fool则是旧时用以指“傻子”的词语之一。在中世纪观看疯子做滑稽动作被当作一种娱乐。在16世纪和17世纪时伦敦曾有一家名叫Bedlam的精神病院。由于要求收容的申请书过多,许多患者尚未痊愈就被打发出院,任其在街头游荡行乞,他们口唱疯歌,身着异服。1676年当Bedlam迁往Moorfields,那里也随即成了一个幽会场所和假日游乐地,任何人花上两便士就可以入内,站在栅栏后面观看那些可怜的精神病人,任意取笑侮弄他们。这被认为是17世纪伦敦的耻辱之一。这些遭人侮弄的疯子常常被人叫Tom of Bedlam或Tom Fool。由Tom fool派生演变的tomfoolery一词现多用以表示“蠢举”、“蠢事”、“傻话”等义。
