What is the difference between a literalist and a kleptomaniac?

A comma. A literalist takes everything literally. A kleptomaniac takes everything, literally.

Explanation: The joke hinges on the placement of a comma, creating a play on words. A literalist interprets things exactly as they are, while a kleptomaniac, who steals impulsively, humorously “takes everything” when read with the comma, merging both meanings in a clever twist.
