Sure they do!! Just takes getting used to. Haha
If you want to get a real scare, look at the price of petrol. ;-)
Clowns are a lot of fun, particularly when twenty of them climb out of a tiny car. Chuckles
Perhaps this accident was discussed in your immediate circle?
Ninety Clowns Injured In One Car Pile-UpCOLUMBUS, OHIO – Tragedy struck the Ohio State Fair yesterday when a single vehicle lost control and crashed into a tree outside the big top tent. First responders initially believed the incident to be a minor one but upon approaching the miniature, crumpled vehicle quickly realised there was an implausible number of injured clowns inside the wreckage. Although the exact cause of the accident is still unclear, witnesses report seeing a banana skin fly out of one of the passenger windows and under the rear wheels of the diminutive automobile. The petite hatchback then proceeded to skid and hit the tree with a loud crash and several notes from an as yet unidentified trombone player. “I saw the driver climb out of the window and stagger away from the crash site” said Jason Farnham, an off duty fire fighter who was one of the first on the scene. “Unfortunately he stepped on a rake someone had carelessly left lying around and injured himself further. I think he may have had quite a bad cut on his forehead but it was difficult to tell because of the great quantity of custard pies smeared across his face. Given the tiny size of the car I thought there was maybe a chance there was one more passenger but certainly no more than that. Boy was I wrong. I stopped counting at sixty. Damn there were a lot of clowns in that car!” Local emergency services were stretched to their limit by the slapstick tragedy and efforts to free the trapped jesters were hampered by the fact that many of the stricken harlequins were wearing electric hand buzzers that repeatedly shocked the paramedics trying to help them. One medical worker, who helped remove the first three dozen punchinello’s from the pint-sized vehicle, spoke about the difficulties they faced. “I’ve attended train derailments with fewer casualties than this. I’ve never seen anything like it. The noise. I’ll never forget the noise. We couldn’t move them without setting off a peal of honking bicycle horns and whoopee cushions. I couldn’t tell if someone had a serious facial injury or was just wearing a comically enlarged red nose. Do you know how hard it is to check if someone has an obstructed airway if they are wearing a motorized, spinning bow tie? On the plus size, the sweat on our brows was regularly washed off by novelty flowers squirting us in the face as we pulled another ribald prankster, fighting for his life, from the ruins. Unfortunately the only split sides around here today are the very real split sides of some of the clowns.” Though all the clowns are expected to make a full, mirthful recovery, this incident will only fuel more talk of greater regulation for the staunchly traditional, physical comedy industry. Clown Union Chief Mr Bobo refused to be drawn on whether or not changes would be forthcoming when he mimed to journalists earlier. “Today is a day fit only for the saddest possible sad clown makeup. Many of the men and women in that car were experienced Pierrot’s. They knew the risks. Unfortunately when you pack nearly one hundred people in a car designed for no more than two and then force the driver to wear shoes thirty sizes too big, unavoidable tragedies like this will happen. Our hopes and prayers are with our colleagues, their families and their balloon animal pets.” Following the press conference, in a traditional show of respect to the injured, a twenty-one t-shirt cannon salute was fired. During the subsequent rendition of the clown national anthem Yakety Sax, Mr Bobo allowed his vastly oversized trousers to respectfully drop to his ankles before leaving the stage by diving into a tiny pail of water.
