Mimes are people, too.

This morning we saw a commercial on TBS. It was a mime in a box and a mime outside a box pretending to be in a box. The question, which is funnier?
I say, give mimes a break. At least they don't talk- and they really are the least threatening of clowns.
When did it come so socially acceptable to bash mimes? Why do we do that? We're just prejudiced and don't think about it. Are they really that annoying? How often has any of us really encountered an annoying mime (reminds me of Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie?) Have we been brainwashed by movies and popular culture to dislike mimes?
Anyway, I pick the mime pretending to be in a box, instead of the one actually in the box. The mime in the box looked really sad.
