I really hate to do this to all of you, especially as we head into the weekend, but some things simply demand to be shared.

Now this is one scary-ass clown, and I’d imagine that if this prank had been done here in the United States, he’d very quickly end up being a dead-ass clown. Luckily for him, the prank was reportedly filmed in Italy.

I’m no clown fan, but I do feel for their plight, especially considering the dangerous clown shortage that continues threatening America. Besides, this isn’t nearly as scary as, say, Harry Reid confronting you in a dark alley.

Do you hate clowns? What would you do if Pennywise or an evil-looking Ronald McDonald began chasing you down the street with a shovel? Don’t clown around; please comment below!
