"A Philosophy of Tickling" by Aaron Schuster, Cabinet Magazine

It's a bit dry for what it is, but interesting, nonetheless.

That was really interesting. I did a quick search for the play they mention, about a clown tickling his wife to death and then being tickled to death by her ghost, and found this amateur theater group with a cute girl clown acting out the play.

The tickling, such as it is, starts at around 9:40, with Pierrot reenacting the murder of his (her) wife. Then he (she) is tickled by his wife's ghost, which is pretty good as the girl clown acts out what that would be like.

Please don't bother these nice people with fetishy questions and comments 🙂
