    Yeah, I'd really want to hire one of those scary freaks to my hypothetical little child's party. What better way to express my love by sending in some ghoulish apparition to "entertain" him/her/it/Geminosity while I nip outside for a smoke?

    As for the thing about kids walking about with facepaints on...well, childhood is all about discovering who you are. If these kids can admit to themselves that they are, deep down inside, clowns, then that's great - it means I can avoid them all the more easily.

    sorry.
    theres some confusion here.

    this isnt about normal clowns.

    this is some bizzare dance craze which is apparently sweeping the US 'hip hop' community.

    these guys in the documentary were talking about clowning as an outlet of energy, somthing to do other than gang banging.

    the dancing was really crazy stuff, apparently based loosly on 'african' dancing.

    the face paint seemed to be different for everyone, some guys were made up like standard clowns, and some had only small tag like marks on their face..

    im still not sure this is for real, as i cant find many web sites about this 'new craze'.

    but it was f***ing weird, ill tell you that much...

    <a href='http://www.alexandersent.com/hiphop.htm#' target='_blank'>this is the best ive found</a>
    theres even a video on this one, allthough the guys are in a more classic clown get-up

    ...!!

    Anyway, this is just another attempt by clowns to re-infiltrate society. Then they'll return to their real work - killing children. As we all know, clowns are actually spider like creatures, and can only be killed by having sex with each other. Or something. I never understood that part of <i>IT</i>. The rest of it holds true, though.

    Don't worry about clowns taking over the world. Have you ever wondered why mimes dont make any sound? Its because theyre ninjas. The mimes are here to control the clown population.

    there's nothing SPECIAL about it..

    it's just another hiphop dance.

    unenlightened phillistines...

    So clowns are like samurais, and mimes are like ninjas? (Evil samurai and ninja, of course.) It all makes so much sense now.

    Mimes are evil ninja's, clowns are evil Samurai...so that makes you...a g@y evil Samurinja!

    If a mime and a clown had sex...well, the mime can't sex, by mimelaw they remove anything that might have them make sound or get out of a box. the imaginary box.

    Result: Insane Clown Posse - something incapable of putting up a decent facepaint, thus ending up looking like black metal squirrels, and also incapable of any sort of credible acting. Next question.

    <b>Apocolyptical consequences</b>. Forget robots, aliens, virii, or a combination of those; this <i>mimeclown </i>would carve a bloody swathe through the mass of humanity.
