MY NOMINEE for the "It Was Clever the First Time, but When You Hear It Every Day, It Gets a Little Old" award:
The idea of otherwise rational people being afraid of clowns.
There are other good examples, I'm sure. This one in particular bothers me because it's based on such a scanty premise. I'm sure that gaudily painted faces often frighten children in the name of entertaining them, but how many non-sitcom adults do you know who feel that way?
