But if you want, you can say that they look *both* funny-ha ha, and funny-strange.
If they look funny-ha ha, then they are funny, and if they look funny-strange, then they can be thought of as scary.
I'd work as a clown if it paid enough, and if I got to invent my own clown-face... which are copyrightable, by the way.

M$It's more of a freakishness that they bring out in me I mean, they are simply tooo cheerful, tooo fake, and when you grow up to be an adult you no longer find that normal, as if they their real self is lost behind all that make-up, and they are seeking revenge on you, and soon you get the feeling that every clown is a Joker(from batman)!!!!!!
I'm also afraid of clowns because they were made into something horrible. I used to love them, then I was traumatized when I got older, I realized that they were no longer the pure, happy clowns whose only goal was to make you happy. And yes, as I said before, ever since then I feel sinister when I see clowns. It's just the way it is now.
And, having said all that, I would say that I will never work as a clown.

M$Well, it all depends on the person and the clown....
Some people like me fear masks.... and well a clowns makeup might be like a mask... I am not afraid of clowns because they talk. I am afraid of people who put masks on and don't talk.
Some people love clowns. Some clowns wear bright color clothing, a cute little or big smile, and make cute balloon animals!
Other people fear them, even if they are dressed like the cute clowns... it is called Coulrophobia, the fear of clowns. Just like how some of us fear spiders, the dark, or whatever, some people have the fear of clowns.
People become afraid of clowns for many reasons.
1. A clown scared them as a child
2. Scary movies.
3. Other people are afraid of them that they know, so they are now afraid to
4. As a child afraid of the makeup that the clown wears, because lets admit, the make up can be a bit much.
5. Not being able to see the real facial expression, since the make up makes you think they are smiling, its hard to see how they really feel.
6. Tons more
It also depends on how the clown in dressed, and how their makeup is.
For example.
This is possible a non scary clown.

Have you ever heard of the saying "Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me" we actually have the Simpsons to thank for that. In one of their episodes titled "Lisa's First Word," we learn that when Marge gets pregnant with Lisa, Bart has to give up his crib to her. To make Bart feel better, Homer makes a new bed for Bart. A clown bed. Instead of being cute, it is actually kind of scary. (picture below) Since Bart is young, he has a wild imagination, and starts to believe that his clown bed will eat him... Great now a new fear for children, a fear that clowns will eat them... the next morning we see Bart in a corner, saying over and over again, "Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me".

Would I work as a Clown?
Sure, If I needed the money, and I was able to get a few jobs as a clown. Not sure if I would make a good one though... I am not very funny. And I am not good at making balloon animals. I can make a dog though. So yeay... oh and a snake! lol just blow the balloon up and draw eyes on it.

M$In 1960, my sister was terrified of clowns and remains so. That was long before the horror film aspect. Something about the morph from normal human to abnormal maybe-human terrorized her. Still icks her out.
I would not work as a clown. I prefer to rant about exotic pets here on Mahalo, where I am happy!
Yeah - this is the guy I want to see blow up balloon animals. Not!

M$When I was younger, I loved Bozo the clown. He was sort of harmless looking. Then there was Ronald McDonald, who I am convinced is a serial killer. Look at him...he's just trapped in a fast food lifestyle and is probably pretty sick of having kids sit in his lap.
So, yes, clowns are scary for the most part. I would not want to dress up as one but I was known as a class clown way back when I was....young.

M$One summer I worked with a clown doing shows
(see picture below. that's me on the left)
If we didn't make enough money at the end of the day, he would threaten to eat me. I was traumatized.
I was the worst summer of my life.
Thank God I made it out alive.

I guess that would be orginal artwork if it were copyrighted. Clowns don't make a lot of money unless they travel. The pay is around $75.00 to $150.00 an hour. That would only be good if it was consistent and often. I like happy and funny clowns. I don't like scary clowns either, unless it's in a movie and they're supposed to be scary.
Aww... you're right. It all started in the movie where they made the clown act scary. Of course since then people welcomed that thought of clowns being scary.
I still think they're funny. :) Being a clown probably is the toughest job there is. It's hard to make people laugh, and it's hard to act happy when deep inside you feel extremely broken.
