1.Now toddlers might DO funny things, but they, themselves, are not funny.
2.For example, if you need a joke writer, you shouldn't hire a toddler.
3.If you want a good toast at your wedding, you shouldn't ask a toddler to be your best man or maid of honor.
4.If you need someone to punch up the humor in your screenplay, asking a toddler isn't a great idea.
5.If you're driving past The Improv and the placard says, "Toddler Comedy Night!" here's a tip: keep driving.
6.Now some people will say toddlers ARE funny, positing that they are masters of anti-comedy.
7.But here's the thing. In order to do anti-comedy you have to KNOW you're doing anti-comedy.
8.Toddlers do not.
9.In their defense, toddlers are very young and just getting the hang of things.
10.But if someone tells you their toddler is funny, be VERY suspicious (they probably just mean their kid laughs a lot).
11.And if a toddler says, "Want to hear a joke?" you should lower your expectations (or run away).
12.Yeah, you should probably run away.
13.If you DO end up listening to a toddler tell a joke, for the love of all that is holy, do not laugh at it, or they will tell it over, and over, and over, and over!
14.In conclusion, while toddlers may grow up to be funny, they are not currently, so you must heed this warning...or else!
