STUPID clowns say IT could ruin their careers!

Have a look at this article about these stupid real-life clowns:

The fat clown says that the movie is cheaply made with awful CGI, and that more people are scared of spiders than clowns (errrm, yeeeesssss).

I watched this edition of ITV's This Morning today, and there were gaffes made in the programme about the IT movie, like:

1. Philip Schofield and the other TM presenter said that the movie was about a group of BOYS being menaced by a killer clown - errrm, SEXIST, with a LACK OF RESEARCH, much?
2. The fat clown said that George Lucas INVENTED MOVIE SPECIAL EFFECTS! Errm, no he didn't.

All in all, with the female presenter being traumatised by Pennywise even APPEARING in the storm drain in front of Georgie and refusing to look further, lets you know that TV people like these should not even be TALKING about horror movies if they cannot stomach them!

I read the novel when I was in high school, watched the TV version and that didn't scare me away from clowns. I developed my dislike of clowns from watching Killer Clowns from Outerspace.

It really makes me laugh. IT isn't actually a clown, but a manifestation of fears. I wonder if werewolves complained about their livelihood being in jeopardy when the mini-series came out. Oh, wait, no coz they're not real, and neither is this supernatural fictional monster.

People who have a fear of clowns have a mental defect, given that it's an utterly irrational fear. I think a lot of people who say they have a fear of clowns are just pretending to though, i.e., jumping on a bandwagon, because they think it makes them seem cool in a quirky sort of way. In reality it makes them seem like they need mental health treatment.

Instead of complaining about "It," why not try looking less like John Wayne Gacy.
