Essentially, why do people hate happiness and joy?

Same reason why a small child singing can be scary. Taking something perceived to be safe and making it even slightly haunting can really mess with people head.

Because people are stupid sheep.

Someone says clowns are scary, now it's cool to say all clowns are scary.

Same with bill Murray. Someone (his agent) got his name in the entertainment news cycle as being cool and now everyone thinks he's cool as shite.

You seem like a happy guy. I'd rather be miserable than have something in common with you.

I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.

I think they're hilarious. I love stupid slapstick humor.

That would make a good topic of conversation at our next meeting of the Orlando Meth Smokers Association.

clowns don't bother me.

I believe people who are afraid of clowns are actually expressing hatred of their childhood via a traditional 'childhood' figure/stereotype/icon.

Basically people who are truly afraid of clowns, not just "i think they are creepy", have some serious childhood issues.

Not all clowns have the same purpose.

Stephen King is so much more than just someone. You'll float down there, OP. They all float down there.
