An auditor with this level of scrutiny and attention to detail? Say it ain’t so.

Is there a clown armorer in the clown troupe who was supposed to diligently do his job and check that the swords are fake?

I’m not against making the clowns take a class about pressing their thumbs to the blade or trying to slice a piece of paper in half (checking that the bullets in the gun are crimped and, therefore, blank), but if the clown industry’s SOP is to always have a clown armorer on staff and one of the clown armorer’s main jobs is to make sure that all the swords are plastic, then who’s to blame here? Who even stored a real metal sword with the fake plastic clown swords? This is a massive failure in clown procedure.

An architect designs a bridge. The materials include a number of steel beams that dont actually meet the support requirements for the bridge’s expected traffic. The bridge collapses.

This guy, to the survivors of the collapse: Have you ever even taken a bridge safety course?
