Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Or dislike clowns?

They used to scare me, and now I just hate clowns period. I won't explain my reason though. I'm curious about why other people hate clowns or are afraid of clowns.

Maybe it's their makeup

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I hate real clowns because they're always happy! Who the hell is always happy-That shit is evil.

I'd rather see a movie about people killing clowns.

It's hip to have a clown phobia nowadays….

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I've never been scared of them. Once my older brother bought me a huge, life-size stuffed clown and all my friends were creeped out by it. It never bothered me.

I have a strong, sexual attraction to the new Pennywise. 💗

No I haven't seen that. I need to though. He does have an unusual look to him.

Oh, man. You poor thing! Getting a life-size clown as a gift would piss me off. I could see myself as a child, walking into my bedroom after a stressful day at school or getting scolded by my parents, I would see that clown sitting in my room happy as can be, and I would have the urge to hit that clown for mocking me.

That's why I totally related to that scene in Happy Gilmore where Happy flipped out on that clown. Lol

Really? Do tell…

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I like them

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I can understand why people are afraid of them. Check out the gifs Anna Maria posted.
I never had much of a problem with them. I grew up watching Bozo The Clown. He was a sweetheart.
I have to say that Ronald McDonald was a bit disturbing. Who wants to eat and look at that?

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Oh, I forgot about Ronald McDonald.
Ronald is alright. I don't know why he's the only clown I like. There is something different about Ronald McDonald.

AnnaMarie is on my block list.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Well, this has a great deal to do with why people are afraid…

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Originally, clowns are benign entertainers. They just get on my nerves for their exaggerated optimism, their makeup, their silliness and playfulness. I can't relate nor empathize with clowns, I can't even relate or empathize with the evil clowns either.

But Ronald McDonald is different. I like Ronald McDonald.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I get what you're saying. That whole painted on smile is a turn off.

what do you think of the hobo clowns?


Do you even like this?

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

How anti-American!


These photos are Ronald. He cares about the sick and hungry.







And no I don't like Hobo clowns either. But I still take my nephew to the circus and fake excitement when the clowns perform. No big deal.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

All very nice public relations. No doubt about that.
I just happen to have aversion to all that makeup when eating. The thought disgusts me. Of course, now that I am older, I have developed an aversion to most fast foods.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I suppose I understand your gripe. The lipstick would come off on the burger buns and straw. However Ronald doesn't actually eat the food. He's serves it with love and happiness.

My body cannot tolerate a lot of fast food either since I had my gall bladder removed last year.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

And just thinking of that when you eat is disgusting.

Sorry about the gall bladder. I understand it is no fun.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

That is kind of bad table manners. Lol

Thanks.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Remember not that long ago, there were "creepy clown sightings" all over the place? Cops were being called. People were dressing up as clowns and just standing outside of peoples' houses with balloons, just waving. They were on public property (the sidewalks), or they'd be walking in the road…

However, on a few occasions, like something Monicah said, these clowns would go chasing after people in their cars on side roads (where driving is slower on side streets).

This was in the news for a bit. I don't remember when it happened though. Bizarre clown sightings.

That would freak me right out. No thank you!

With a haunted cigar box. Just ask Sam!

Serious note, I agree. That's another reason to be suspicious. The intent of presenting yourself as an image that some kids are naturally drawn to and assume to be associated with fun and joy (a clown) and then what a disgusting monster he turned out to be.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Yes. That wasn't too long ago.
Between Stephen King and What's His Name Gacy, they have managed to put many a clown out of business.

I find them boring

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I'm sensing you might be going through a depression. You seem generally apathetic about everything. You hardly post images of Lara Croft anymore.

What's wrong, Lara?

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Why should I post anything about her anymore only to receive only shit from y'all🙄

Do it for me, Lara.
I want you to.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

They're psychopaths. Encyclopedic rants and dissertations. Godawful gifs conveying nothing. Screenshots & copy/paste. Bold, italic and colored fonts. Dozens of emojis per post.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I myself don't make a habit of reacting emotionally when I don't find the answer to someone else's question useful, and I'll not ask why you waltzed into a thread about clowns, primed to attack, as if you felt personally called out by the word, provided you promise to have a nice day as well.

Don’t you have cats to feed?

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

I do not, but you have a fixation on cats/Bumby that you should look into. Hope that helps.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

You have a fixation on gifs and emoji use among other posters that YOU should look into.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Define fixation for me.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

You're right about Erica. She has a problem. If I can make peace with Bumby, anyone can.

Re: Why are some people afraid of clowns?

Jealousy is an ugly trait. I hope Erica learns to be comfortable with herself and finds the happiness she seeks.
