My aunt had many many little marionette clowns hanging from her ceiling, limp like corpses... slowly turning around on their strings... vacant stares. Sometimes you'd catch a glimpse as one of those blank gazes passed you, and you'd swear the thing was sizing you up for latter that night.

i have no problem with clowns. i do however have a strong dislike for Ronald Mcdonald. i've always thought he was a creepy looking guy. they have a statue of him sitting on a bench outside of mickey D's close to where i live. even though i KNOW it's there, everytime i pass it, i always think there's a real person sitting on the bench staring at me. weirdoooooooo

i think the creepiness really emanates from the man behind the mask. he knows his life sucks well because hes a clown and you can see it in his dead eyes right through the makeup. you don't fool me with those painted on smiles *shakes fist*

Assalam 'Alaykum,

I was terrified of clowns after I watched IT when I was a kid.

Wouldnt the above sound the same for niqabis?
they know they're ugly, so they cover their face and try to look all "exotic" and you can see it in their eyes right through the narrow opening

I think the only reason they wear all that make up is so they can feast on our souls with anonymity .

anything with that much make-up is creepy











It's supposed to be scary, that's why it's called "war paint"
