The main threat seems to come from this clown chasing you. Are you, by any chance, afraid of clowns?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banani: I\u2019m not afraid of clowns\u2026 I\u2019m terrified of them. Clowns give me the creeps! I can\u2019t understand how anyone could find them funny\u2026 That white paint on their faces, those huge fake smiles\u2026 I don\u2019t even want to think about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Faggioli: I don\u2019t like clowns either. I don\u2019t like them because they\u2019re stupid. In life, you have to be serious, not stupid. Those clowns are all slackers. I\u2019d send them to do hard labor. Let\u2019s see if they\u2019d still laugh. Digging up the soil \u2014 that\u2019s a real job. \ud83e\udd23<br>\u2026What\u2019s the point of laughing? None. In life, we don\u2019t need laughter.

Just picture the scene. Literally. Three clowns digging a field. One hits the other\u2019s oversized shoe with a hoe. The second bursts into fake spraying tears. And the last one tries to plow with an inflatable hoe. \ud83e\udd23<br>In the end, according to Faggioli, there\u2019s no need for laughter\u2026 unless he\u2019s the one making the jokes! \ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three scientists \u2014 Papaia, Banani, and Ravioli \u2014 and their assistant Igor, who work at NASAL, begin to take an interest in creationism.
