Today, a clown came over for my son's 8th birthday party. There was a moment of silence then laughter as everyone realized the clown and I were wearing the same plaid shirt. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I walked into my house to find several of my friends there for a surprise sweet sixteen party my mom was throwing for me. Everything was going great until the doorbell rang and a clown walked in. My mom hired a clown for my sweet sixteen. My friends took pictures. FML
Today, I was working a kid's birthday party dressed as a clown. The child's mother made me change because he was scared of clowns. The only thing I had in my car was a princess costume that was owned by a girl co-worker. So for 4 hours I had to entertain in a tight pink dress. I'm a guy. FML
Today, my boyfriend finally got a job. As a clown. FML
Today, I took my kids to the circus. We were having fun, right up until the point they saw an old man dressed as a clown, at which point they screamed, grabbed onto my shorts, and managed to accidentally pull them down. FML
Today, my dad came to my 8-year-old daughter's birthday party wearing a shirt that said "Small penis, huge dick." FML
Today, I walked into our office and everyone started laughing. It turns out that I'd been the only one not in on the joke to come in dressed as a character from our favorite TV show. However, I'd dressed in normal work clothes. I’m the boss. FML
Today, I got stoned with the clowns at the birthday party I took my niece to. This is a new low point. FML
Today, I showed up to my friend’s birthday party with a huge cake... on what turned out to be the wrong day. The actual party is tomorrow. Her family laughed and thought if was cute, but I just wanted the floor to open up and let me disappear. FML
Today, my son couldn't find all the parts to his Cub Scout uniform. I had a serious talk with him about being prepared, and how he would need to live with the consequences of not having the right outfit on. When we arrived at the meeting, everyone was in costumes because it's Halloween. I forgot. FML
Today, I was helping supervise a 5 year-old's birthday party in an inflatable obstacle course. I was playing hide and seek with them. I saw the birthday boy and crept around the corner and yelled, "Found you!" He peed his pants. FML

Tell the kids you think the clown is very stylish.

Ah, well. Everyone probably enjoyed the laugh. You just made your son's party a little more fun for everyone involved, even if it was unintentionally.

Either the clown has great style, even dressed up as a clown, or the Original Poster has a horrible sense of style. Which one is it? haha

So you dress like a clown and make people laugh? Next you will have a urge for multi-coloured hairdye and a red nose... One does not choose to be a clown, one is chosen by fate for this honoured position!

Did that make you have "Tears of a Clown"? At least you made your kid and guest laugh! ***I really think clowns are scary! Now magicians are the shit! I'm a sucker for a good magic trick!(:

Clowns are pure evil. I am with you, they are terrifying.

Inception...were you perhaps the clown and your husband was you in disguise?!

I think you misinterpreted the point of Inception...

You understand that OP is a man right? Isn't it a little presumptuous to assume that he has a husband?

At least there was a moment of reverence for the loss of your dignity! The party gods thank you for this most excellent fashion faux pas, and are sorry you never received a certain fortune cookie advising you to stop shopping at Bozo's Big and Tall (and Dads).
