Clowns

[peterparker]

Why do some clowns have horizontal and vertical lines over their eyes?

Clown markings are (supposed to be) unique, a sort of trademark. In theory you should never see clowns with the same faces.

Clowns are spooky b a s t a r d s and should be banned.

What's so scary about clowns? A couple of my friends find them a bit creepy. They're more annoying than scary.

the clown has to register their make-up style on a hard boiled egg i was told once, is that a joke or is it true? lol

[johnny7]

Probably true. You know what clowns are like. Bloody idiots!

James Stewart played a murderer who was a clown once, in a John Wayne film I think, he was scary in that even though he was a bit of a hero in it, his make-up was one of the clues

I watched a bit of the film IT at my friend's house and thought it was ridiculous because the killer was a clown.

Postdpg is right.
Every clown face is unique,and may vary (only ever so slightly) from another clown face.
I also believed (like dot) that every clown fack make~up had to be registered somwhere (where?) but I cannot remember anything about a boiled egg,BUT in the world of clowns anything is possible!

PS:~
This page from "Clowns International" says (below Membership Fees) that a clown (in the UK) has to register their makeup (painted on a china egg) and deposit it in the museum at Wookey Hole.

The clown (it seems) keeps another egg,with identical makeup on,as a sort iof guarantee/insurance against anyone else using the same makeup,I presume somwthing similar happens abroad?

So dot you were right,it's just that now it's a chia egg.
