Caring for Your Comedic Companion: A Guide to Proper Clown Care

Creating a Clown-Friendly Environment: The Chuckle Chamber

Clowns thrive in environments that stimulate their comedic instincts. Before adopting your clown, ensure you have a dedicated space in your home for them, commonly referred to as the "Chuckle Chamber." If you cannot afford to buy a new enclosure, an old tent painted with stripes can keep your clown happy for the first few months. Equip it with a variety of colorful props, oversized shoes, and a well-stocked assortment of rubber chickens. Ensure the Chuckle Chamber is spacious enough for your clown to express its natural exuberance.

Nutritional Needs: A Diet of Delightful Delicacies

Maintaining a well-balanced and joy-inducing diet is crucial for your clown's health. Offer a mix of cotton candy, popcorn, and custard pies to meet their nutritional needs. For hydration, a continuous supply of seltzer water is recommended. Regularly check for any allergies or sensitivities your clown may have to certain treats. Surprisingly, peanut allergies are common amongst certain breeds of clown.

Exercise and Enrichment: Laughter Workouts

Clowns are energetic beings that require regular exercise and mental stimulation. Engage your clown in laughter workouts, which can include juggling sessions, pratfall practice, and balloon animal sculpting. Introduce new comedic routines to keep their minds sharp and their spirits high.

Grooming: Maintaining the Mirthful Mane

Clown grooming is not just about appearance; it's an essential aspect of their well-being. Regularly check and clean oversized shoes to prevent slips, trim colorful wigs to maintain their vibrant allure, and ensure that the iconic red nose is kept in pristine condition. A well-groomed clown is a happy and confident one.

Veterinary Care: Honk-Checked Health Checks

Regular visits to a certified clown veterinarian are crucial to monitor your companion's health. These professionals specialize in honk-checked health checks, ensuring that your clown is in peak comedic condition. Vaccinations against gloom and routine screenings for joke deficiencies are standard procedures.

Socialization: Playdates with Fellow Funnymakers

Clowns are social beings that thrive on interaction with their own kind. Arrange playdates with fellow clowns to encourage socialization and the exchange of humorous antics. Attend clown conventions, where your companion can partake in the grandeur of collective laughter and collaborative performances.

Understanding Non-Verbal Communication: Mastering the Art of Clownish Signals

Clowns communicate primarily through non-verbal cues, such as honks, squeaks, and exaggerated gestures. Pay close attention to your clown's signals to gauge their mood and preferences. Understanding the art of clownish communication is key to fostering a strong bond with your comedic companion.

Celebrating Special Occasions: Clown Birthdays and Anniversaries

Marking special occasions in your clown's life adds a touch of festivity to their existence. Celebrate birthdays with a clown-sized cake and a chorus of joyous honks. Recognize adoption anniversaries with a memorable performance or a specially crafted routine to commemorate the time spent together.

Providing proper care to your beloved clowns is not just a responsibility but a joyful journey of shared laughter and merriment. By embracing the unique needs and whimsical nature of your clown companion, you'll cultivate a bond that transcends the ordinary, creating a lifetime of cherished comedic moments.

you don't have to answer this publicly but i completely get what you said about reposts being the reason there's not a lot of content recently like i've been posting those HDs on gerardpilled and within the hour someone will repost a photo with a silly caption but not crediting the photographer like bro just put it in the tags 😭 must be 10x more frustrating when you're the one making the content (like your gifs) so sorry about that!!

Is it okay if I do answer this publicly? I'm so sorry if it's not and feel free to ask me to delete it if you don't want me to!

But, like, I see your HQ's on gerardpilled and I appreciate them and I appreciate you putting the credit there. Like, maybe I'm just reading into it a bit too much, but it's very frustrating when people post all these professional tour photos and have NO credit in their description, just a quirky little one-liner. It's so disrespectful to photographers in my opinion. Photographers didn't just hit a button on their camera and post it right away! Like, there is editing that goes into it as well I'm sure!

Gif reposting definitely has been a problem for years and it's like talking to a brick wall unfortunately. Like, it seems it's always gonna happen and gifmakers are just doomed to... deal with it.

Omg happy birthday!

thank you!!!!!!! <3

I’m sorry no offense but genuinely asking why don’t you just start a personal blog and slowly abandon this one?

I do have a personal blog loll it’s @clownologist

I post things here because I consider it more anonymous considering my irl friends follow me on the other. I also have more followers here and I like when I get more attention 😁 sorry if you consider it annoying but I’ve been posting like this on this blog during mcr off-periods for years

in search of fellow active clownologists to follow! :o)

clown keepers, handlers, and hobbyists: if you have a clown husbandry (or even just clown-themed) blog, sharing is caring! Feel free to (please) reply to this post with your clown blogs. <3

Can you list every clown breed from A - Z? Please I really think that you should try

hi, ive recently became a coulrologist/clownologist and i want to do a run-down of what to expect for those who are trying to get into coulrology :o) (info under the cut)

usually, a good starting point is to start doing research. any coulrologist will tell you this, but a good website for info is coulroscience, its backed by many coulrologists as the most reputable site to date, with nearly every confirmed piece of info on any breed (even ones like fruit clowns!) + it is not associated with the ASWC and other harmful organizations towards clowns & their health. 2. when getting into coulrology, its mandatory for them to know if you have had any past history with clowns at all. it is very important to specify what association youve had; if any. (ex. if you say yes, you must specify if you are an owner, a past owner, a breeder, etc.) this is to note what information they must tell you first. 3. usually, once you get in, you will have to take care of a clown for at least 5 days. you are often able to pick the specific breed, unless you are a coulrologist for a specific breed. so for example; if you are a juggolatologist, you will get a (tamed) juggalo to take care of. 4. PLEASE be aware of the risks with some clown breeds. clowns such as pierrots or sweets british are often very high maintenance, and clowns such as fruit clowns or juggalos can be *slightly* aggressive (note: if any professional gives you an untamed clown, immediately report them to the coulrologist resources department.) im likely forgetting some things, so feel free to add on in the reblogs/comments!

which country has the best species of clown

From the jesters of medieval courts to the boisterous circus performers of the 20th century, clowns have been an enduring presence in human societies. Unlike Homo sapiens, Homo Ridiculus has distinct behavioral traits centered around laughter, whimsy, and a proclivity for slapstick comedy.

The evolution of Homo Ridiculus can be traced through a series of adaptations that facilitated the survival and thriving of the clown species. Genetic studies reveal the presence of a unique "comedy genome," responsible for the development of exaggerated facial features, colorful costumes, and an innate ability to elicit laughter. These adaptations have proven advantageous for clowns in both their social interactions and performances.

Clown communities exhibit a rich tapestry of social dynamics, characterized by cooperation, camaraderie, and a shared commitment to mirth. The concept of "laughter reciprocity" is central to clown societies, where individuals engage in collaborative performances to generate joy and amusement. Hierarchies within clown communities are often based on comedic prowess, with esteemed elders passing down the art of laughter to younger generations.

In the realm of Homo Ridiculus, communication transcends traditional verbal language. Clowns employ a vast array of comic expressions, from honks and squeaks to exaggerated gestures, as a means of conveying emotions, intentions, and punchlines. The study of clown communication provides insights into the evolution of non-verbal comedic expression as a fundamental aspect of clown behavior.

Clowns engage in elaborate rituals and celebrations that serve both cultural and communal purposes. The "Spinning Top Extravaganza," an annual event in clown communities, features grand performances, contests, and the passing down of comedic traditions. These rituals reinforce the sense of identity and shared purpose among Homo Ridiculus.

While clowns are celebrated for their ability to bring joy, they also face challenges and misconceptions within human societies. The study addresses common stereotypes and explores strategies employed by Homo Ridiculus to navigate the laughter landscape, fostering understanding and harmony between clowns and humans.

As we continue to coexist with Homo Ridiculus, it becomes increasingly evident that clowns are not mere entertainers but a vibrant and integral species with a rich tapestry of behaviors, traditions, and adaptations. This research contributes to our understanding of the complex and fascinating world of Homo Ridiculus, offering a glimpse into the laughter-filled existence of this unique species.

It's a common misconception that the large red noses so often associated with circus clowns are present from birth, but if you examine a newborn chucklet, you'll notice that its nose is similar to that of a human. This is believed to be a result of divergent evolution, where humans and clowns both evolved from a common ancestor.

The red round nose is actually a secondary sex characteristic in circus clowns, and grows and appears during puberty. During this stage of the clown life cycle, their squirting flowers become much more vibrant and clowns often delight in squirting them. In addition, while all clowns are born with some degree of facial marking or paint, it is only during the onset of puberty that more complex markings, such as rosy cheeks or teardrops, appear. These markings are unique to each clown, and it's impossible to predict what any given chucklet's markings will look like.

hey are magicians related to clowns? I found one with a funny blue hat and a red scarf. She's pretty funny and has lots of little tricks so I assumed the whole endless pocket was a clown trait.

Clowns and Magicians are actually related! They’re actually related in about the same way that hippos and whales are related, that is to say, they are eachother’s closest living relatives!

On the regards of endless pockets: this is just a shared trait from their similar ancestry, and actually one of the first clues Clownologists got at their relation.

i just discovered u have another acc and its ur main... i thought this one was ur one and only... #betrayed

😭 yeah this is a side blog! My main is @clownologist where I post anything that’s not mcr, but I do use this blog more rn

i know you recently posted some of your favorite videomakers and your favorite videos of theirs, but what are your favorite videos YOU'VE made?

oh jeez hard question....well first of all i’m gonna relink the post you’re talking about for anyone who is interested! a bunch of people i mentioned there have made awesome videos since then too, like fern’s landslide, sam’s ME! video, or maddie’s soldier poet king.

i also answered it on the spot so i forgot to mention @calamitysong of come on eileen, friday i’m in love, papa was a rodeo, and THE belphegor fancam fame, among others. and @tallahasseemp3—when my boy walks down the street, judas, and iris are some favorites. some other videos i’ve really liked recently are verbatim by @marlborodean, they’re killing children over there by @violetmoods, and as always the 13-minute beach life-in-death video by @clownologist. also erin @danneelswife’s garth fancam

ok now that i’ve complimented other people enough, i can answer your actual question under a cut LOL

this is a hard one since i tend to be very critical of my own work and i can barely bear to look at anything i made before i got HD video to work with anyway, but i have to shout out strawberry blond since it’s the one that started it all (and looks miles better since i remastered it). i also looooove honeybee. but tbh the ones i’ve been most proud of lately are my mikanatural videos: grace kelly and particularly happy ending. i actually think happy ending might be my all-time favorite of mine—i was very proud of how i captured the tragedy of the final two episodes, and was thrilled with how the little bit of love segment came out!

i also really like tender is the night because that’s one of my favorite songs, and what the hell because it was incredibly fun to edit (and re-watch)

but i especially LOVE the videos that are something different and a bit of an editing challenge for me, like my empty fix-it and purgatory videos. they’re a huge departure from what i normally do, but i really tried to use them to practice my editing skills (namely working on match cuts and conveying emotion without music in the empty video, and trying to condense all the emotional beats and rising tension of the entire arc into my purgatory video). i was SO so proud of how they both turned out! :’)

thank you so much for sending this ask; reflecting on what i like about my own videos made me feel so good and got me out of a bit of an editing funk i was in hahahaha. but seriously, go watch all the videos i linked from other people they’re all amazing!!!!!

I’ve graduated from mime to sad clown which is 100% how the clown hierarchy works I know because I’m a clownologist. [THEY / THEM]
