My gf: mimes are to clowns as dogs are to wolves
Me, trembling: whatI love clown shitposting as much as the next person, but for once my weirdly specific college education of mimes has a chance to shine because the opposite is actually true. Modern western clowning is directly descendant from ancient greek pantomime. Clowns are actually the watered down, domesticated funny makers to the raw stylings of mimes.
…Man, I’d even make fun of myself for adding this comment on.You look at a mime and tell me that doesn’t have the raw, untamed energy of a wolf. The clown is the tamed household one, colorful and designed to warm hearts and bring chuckles and entertain. But a mime…..that is something savage and unbridled from the wilderness. You ask a mime to make you laugh and it will go for the jugular. Not to say a clown is unable to go feral, just the opposite. It’s just that approaching a mime in its natural habitat without due respect, expecting it to be the same creature as your auntie’s pedigree purebred Bozo, will be the last mistake you ever make.
say your prayers…… or rather……. don’t
