  1. I wish he could see those beautiful breasts omg
  2. Oh Tommy. You always make me smile!
  3. Lol you are hilarious!!!!!!!! I love your videos, they crack me up and remind me of how great life really is. Thanks Tommy.
  4. How does your spatial sense work? Do you have a 'picture' in your head of where things are relative to each other in that you can create a mental model of your surroundings? Also thanks, these vids are really interesting stuff; keep it up.
  5. Vsauce3 just featured a free completely audio based adventure game called "Blindscape" for iOS and Android. The subject matter is very depressing, but I'd love to hear what Tommy has to say about it.
  6. lol @assistive touch
  7. Dear Tom, I am writing a dissertation and I have decided to study how the blind interact with brands. How can you tell the difference between a can of Coke or Pepsi let's say. Without using taste or sight :) lol
  8. Do you play games? Ever tried angry birds? XD
  9. Ummm it Palm Sunday hahahahahaha LOL
  10. I didn't know you can double tap to unlock! You learn something new everyday. Your videos are a true inspiration, I love watching them all!
  11. this may be a stupid question, but can you spell?
  12. what a cool dude, i would love to get drunk as fuck with him
  13. Do you know you have emails to read?
  14. I just died ''Brightyass'' XD !!!!!!!
  15. hahahahaha i love this guy!!!! 
  16. If you haven't already, you should turn down the brightness to minimum and turn off auto-brightness. Spares a lot of energy, makes your phone last longer without charging.
  17. Love your videos. :D
  18. What do u think of bionatic eyes?
  19. I use accessibility on my iPod to put it on mono because I have unilateral hearing, and even the nano has some things for the visually impaired.
  20. How do you edit your videos.
  21. The iPhone could just have a black screen and not load any textures for its screen if it's on a blind setting. It would probably run and boot up a decent amount faster.
  22. can you cry 
  23. I just want to tell you that you are the coolest youtuber ever. Thank you for making me laugh every time, most people around here need to learn from your positivity.
  24. I lol'd when it turned out not to be Easter
