That was so funny! I think I will start adding it at the end of each paragraph of my papers (but just the ones I turn in to you). Just as an inside joke.
...Therefore Hemingway's use of the hills in this short story is an obvious symbol of his girlfriends pregnant body. Fuck you, clown.
Passer, deliciae meae puellae,
quicum ludere, quem in sinu tenere,
rusticum fuctutas
Or something like that.
haha....
And in the night,
when the moon shines
upon the darkness,
illuminating the all
but the dark corners of
homes, automobiles, and rooms,
nature whispers "Fuck you, clown"
I believe this probably had its origins in a story I was thinking of only the other day. I was told that it occurred in Minnesota (perhaps--it was a long time ago when I heard this), but it could have taken on urban legend status. At any rate, a kid was on one of those clown TV shows and he did something inappropriate, so the clown said to him, "That's a Bozo no-no!" And the kid said "Fuck you, clown!"
I can personally attest to this as I saw it on WGN TV as a child while we lived near Lemont ILL some time prior to 1965 which was when we moved to Wisconsin.
The description here is pretty accurate. They were playing some kind of timed game that involved something like a water gun to fill something or something similar to that. The band would play music and the camera would show the progress of the kids and who was winning.
The kid who was kind of a chunky boy a little older than the others either refused to quit or was cheating in some way and Bozo stepped in to correct him which is when the kid smucked off to him. It sounded like F... off clown but at the time I was too young to know what that was. But my mom who was in the room at the time had a huge reaction to it and later explained what it meant.
I clearly recall "Uncle Ned" coming and kind of grabbing the kid by the shoulders and strong arming him away. I sort of remember Bozo (Bob Bell) making some kind of apologetic comment but there is no doubt that this really did happen!
