I've said it before, but: I don't get the problem some people
have with clowns. They're outlandishly-dressed people doing silly
things. We need *more* of that in our lives, folks. There should be
clown centers in every mini-mall so the relief of tension and
frustration from everyday life.

No can do. All the clowns are busy for the next two weeks.

Great. Now we've got a clown shortage to deal with on top of
everything else.

There are a couple problems with clowns.
1. Their face is somewhat hidden. If a guy dressed as a clown stole
your money on the street, you'd never be able to recognize him later.
2. They often have the smiles painted on -- such that they'll have
this appearance of a big smile even when their lips are really in a
perfectly neutral position.
I did a Google Images search for "clown," but couldn't really find a
picture that demonstrated my point. What I did notice was that:
2a. female clowns seem more prevalent, and less threatening.
2b. the VERY first Related Search that Google recommended was for
"scary clown."
