Finally: Study Proves Kids Hate Clowns

Didn't you as a kid? Don't you now?

How can it be that every adult knows clowns are pathetic and a little frightening and yet we keep forcing these freaks on children? Who wants to see grown men painted in garish make-up outside of a drag club?

A hospital decorated a children's ward in clown decor, and then, afterwards, bothered asking them what they thought of it.

The results were surprising. It wasn't 90% of the kids who reacted negatively. Nor 95%. Nor 99%. A bit higher. Just one notch higher than that.
