So recently I came across the Microsoft Education Competencies page for Humor. They couldn’t make a more joyless guide to funny if they tried. It’s hard to read it without hearing it in your head with one of those synthetic text-to-speech voices. It’s how I imagine one robot teaching another to tell jokes would phrase things.

So, with a little help from Xtranormal.com, I’ve brought my idea to “life”. With robots.

I call it “Teach Me To Laugh Like An Actual Person”.
