Clowns, Pain And LOL
With slapstick comedy it’s practically a given someone is going to get their head hit, an eye poked, a kick in the pants, or slip and fall down. And why is slapstick in so many cartoons and children’s shows? Why do people find humor in other’s noncommonsensical pain?
Ever since the movie Poltergeist I’ve understood why some children (and adults) are afraid of clowns. So what happens when you combine a clown and slapstick in a television commercial? If you are a fan of slapstick, you can’t help but laugh out loud.
