Old "fear Of Clowns" Post

Here's a total tangent: has anyone else who hates clowns ever thought the same about Santa Claus? As a child, I absolutely went berserk rather than sit on his lap!

Not Santa Claus, but some DGs are afraid of Hannah (our Raggedy Ann doll symbol) because Raggedy Ann is basically a patchwork / female clown doll.

When I was a little kid my parents gave me the speech about watching out for strange dirty old men who seemed too interested in little children. I wasn't sure what a pederast was or did but I knew they were bad news. Then my mother took me to the department store where we could see Santa. I took one look at this old weirdo with a bushy beard, a red velvet costume, and a bunch of small tykes gathered around him and sitting on his lap.
Holy shit Batman, Santa Clause was the guy my parents warned me about! Santa was a pervert! After that I never did go see Santa.
