The shop had not been there the day before, you could have sworn. It looked old, but you had never seen it in your town before.
The sign above the door read "Chuckle's Joke Shop."
How very odd.

"A new joke shop? Cool, maybe I should take a look around."
I push open the door and I'm stunned by the amount of clown related items on display. I start walking around, picking things up here and there, trying to see if there is anything worth buying.

As the door closes, a loud honk is heard, a horn sounding off the arrival of a new customer.
"Be right with you!" a voice shouted from the back.

"OK, thanks!" I call back.
I keep browsing the shelves and pick up a couple of things I'd like to buy, a whoopie cushion and some false buck-teeth.

Out walked a clown. He wore a colorful business suit, and looked quite handsome, despite the white skin and crazy face paint.
"Welcome! I'm Chuckles." he said with a grin.

"Oh!" I say, surprised. "Err, hi Chuckles, I'm Katy. Sorry, I don't mean to stare, but clowns have always kind of freaked me out."

"Oh, we aren't scary, my dear. I know the movies have us as bad guys sometimes, but trust me, you won't meet a nicer clown."

"OK, sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. I've only come in to buy a couple of things."
I hand over my purchases "How much do I owe you?"

"Well, let's see. Fake teeth and a whoopie cushion. Well, how about this. Try the teeth on, and we'll see if you like them."

"OK sure, I'd like to see how I look in them"
I pop the teeth in, and giggle "Wow they're big, I'm not sure I can close my mouth properly with them in!"

"I bet you could." he smiled. "Why not give it a try."

With the teeth in place I try to close my mouth, but they are sticking out too far over my bottom lip.
"That'th tho cool!" I lisp, and clap my hand to my mouth in surprise "Oopth!"

"Ah, you've taken to them quite nicely. They do suit you wonderfully."

"Ah, that's a common issue, but it will fix itself in a few seconds I believe." He smiled as he watched the teeth gain a shine that only real teeth have.
