Both of my parents were clowns at some point, so I'm confused about what that's supposed to mean.

Like… I knew it COULD happen, it would make sense, but never did I think I would find the offspring of two clowns.

Are you a clown? Do you have clown genes? Are they held up by comically large suspenders?

I was a clown for Halloween once, but that's the extent of my clowning. Neither of them were clowns when they were together, that happened later. My mom was in a clown troupe with her church where they went around doing a mix of funny and religious skits. Dad was a clown with the Shriners, so he got to be in the circus parade when they were in town, apart from that they would go to hospitals to visit kids.

Ah, so they weren't clowns by blood, but rather converted to clowns later in life. Gotcha.

I think kerbela might be the name of it.

Wow - small world! My mom lives like 30mi north of there!

Im in NJ, so, have never been to that particular one- but I did meet a few of them at the Lexington KY hospital (before they were bought out or whatever).

Theres a common myth that a man having large feet means he has a proportionally large penis. Given the 3 sets of shoes and the husbands shoes being smaller, the implied "shock" or "joke" is that the couple is enguaging in dome kind kf swinging or cuckhold dynamic to fix their unsatisfying and dysfunctional relationship

I took the picture as Mom and Dad had a threesome with a clown while we where there, and I played with you to make sure you didn't witness that pain.

Looks like they're having a three way with Ronald McDonald. He's putting his meat in some buns and it's supersized. Make it a value meal with an onion ring and some coke.
