Before we start, let’s read one of Aesop‘s fables. Fine, go grab a coffee first.
The Wild Ass and the Clown [Aesop was never Freshly Pressed, obviously.]
A WILD ASS and a Clown entered into an alliance so that they might capture WordPress with greater ease. The Clown agreed to assist the Wild Ass with his magnificence, while the Wild Ass gave the Clown the benefit of his greater looks. When they had taken as many blogs as their necessities required, the Clown undertook to distribute the readership, and for this purpose divided it into three shares. “I will take the first share,” he said, ”because I am Le King: and the second share, as a partner with you in the chase: and the third share (believe me) will be a source of great evil to you, unless you willingly resign it to me, and set off as fast as you can.”
Obviously, the clown in Aesop’s fable was a douche. Thank you, Aesop, double douche… clowns are people too. Good people. As a matter of fact, as a show of gratitude for your loyalty, for the coffees we share together, each morning, sitting in front on our respective computer screen – eyes red, skin radioactive green, weak bladder – I made you, my Carnies, badges to add on your blogs – one for those on my blogrolls, one for the winners of the Blogroll Contest, and one neutral – for the sake of Switzerland.
Of course, there is no obligation to use these badges… After all, they’re only a gift from me to you, a benevolent gesture. But why would you throw a fortune out the window? Exactly. These badges take their full splendoUr when linked back to my site, obviously (obviously was brought to you by Sesame Street, and the makers of I’m too lazy to Thesaurus a synonym). If you browsed through A Clown on Fire lately, you might have also noticed:
How many times have you seen this badge on the blogosphere? Damn right! It’s Le Clown trademarked. Here’s more magnanimity: take it. For free. Eat your decomposed heart out, Aesop. Thus ends two weeks of shameless self-promotion.
Somehow, I don’t think the shameless self-promotion has actually come to an end. I’m a bit of a psychic.

Posted by saradraws | September 8, 2012, 07:47I’m laughing aloud at both your comments right now. When does any blogger not take the time for self promotion.

Le Clown
Posted by Le Clown | September 8, 2012, 09:12Dear Le Douce,
As I sit sipping (guzzling) very strong FRESHLY PRESSED coffee, I am dragging a Le Clown badge to my desktop where I will then place it directly under my FRESHLY PRESSED badge. I have indeed accumulated quite a few new followers as a direct result of your crazy fucking contest. Now, I have a bone to pick. I am STILL anxiously awaiting, with baited breath, on the edge of my seat, in my FRESHLY PRESSED shirt, for the TRUTH OR DARE CHALLENGE to be posted. You are slower than a blind one-armed line cook at Denny’s. Let’s get this show on the road ERIC. Your readership awaits you.
My salutation is to be imagineered as follows:
I am happily riding a unicorn over a rainbow. On the ground below me there is a field full of kittens frolicking with balls of brightly colored yarn in the sunshine. The clouds are made of cotton candy and I am eating an ice cream cone and wearing a unitard made of glitter and gumdrops. There is a clown below with a pot of clown noses at the end of the rainbow. He is smiling and handing them out to passers by, inviting them into his brightly colored circus tent to see his Amazing Show. I watch a crowd gather inside, and wait and wait, and then I witness a sad and disappointed crowd leave, feet shuffling, heads bowed, because there is no show, as promised. The kittens stop playing with yarn and start mowling. The sunny sky turns dark and stormy, the rainbow disappears. The horn falls from my unicorn and alas it is just a horse. As I ride to escape the storm I stop so that my non-unicorn can shoot ejaculate on your clown tent of broken dreams.
Love,
Tracy

1. Badge: Thank you. It would look better if it would link to my blog;

Posted by Rutabaga the Mercenary Researcher | September 8, 2012, 19:04I am trying desperately to work out why anyone would start a blog other than for self promotion. Even in my case, with it being for the rescue animals, I will shamelessly animal promote, if not self promote. Go ahead, you are expected to do so! Love the Not Freshly Pressed – definitely think I might steal that!
Posted by Long Life Cats and Dogs | September 8, 2012, 08:21LLCD,
You’re right… And this has been my shtick: the ever so ego inflated character of Le Clown, by over the top content, and playing with the WordPress medium and its tools. I’ve told you this before, but the work you do is important, and I thank you for it.

Posted by the howler and me | September 8, 2012, 09:10I have got to get rid of the clutter on my blog and have a special place for all these things. Le Clown, if you ever want to begin a marketing firm that is American/Canadian based, (notice I put America first because A goes before C, except after B — which of course, B would always come first for BRIGITTE) then I’m your man (woman). You can be President, Ringmistress will also be President and I will claim a spot as Vice President. I was in marketing for quite some time and with your guerilla marketing tactics and my vivacious and winning personality, we could have something here. We need a good name and a catchy tagline.
Now, have your people contact my people for a sit-down.
Posted by Brigitte | September 8, 2012, 08:28Brigitte,
What a great comment! I like the ABC, and the American/Canadian marketing collaboration… I was looking at the different WordPress templates yesterday, and I have to say that yours is the one I appreciate the most after Twenty Eleven. It has another certain je ne sais quoi…

You’re right, and as Meizac said something similar above, I’m asking myself… Why stop?
Le Clown
Posted by Le Clown | September 8, 2012, 08:59I know, shame on me for not reading the other comments. But I have (in all seriousness) discovered that reading white type on a black background causes my eyes to have problems with focus. I thought initially it was just the sheer volume of reading that went along with the contest, but I have since discovered it’s actually the white-on-black, and not just on your site. So pretty much a post is read, sometimes a comment is made, and thanks to that handy new thing WP has where you can comment in a little box instead of on the blog, I don’t have to lose my eyesight over it.
Posted by Ruby Tuesday | September 8, 2012, 09:16Ruby,
White fonts on a black background is not encouraged in the world wide web. But does Le Clown listen?
Le Clown
Posted by Le Clown | September 8, 2012, 09:19I am in no way asking you to confine yourself to what is commonly accepted or encouraged. That goes against my fundamental beliefs, and your nature, which I happen to like.
Posted by Ruby Tuesday | September 8, 2012, 09:36I find looking at an overly white screen hurts *my* eyes. Thus the reason for my white font on black.
Posted by Angel Fractured | September 8, 2012, 15:31Plus, white is such a blah color to me; I’ve never liked it to be the dominant color. For instance, I never by white sneakers, and at least half of the sneakers out there are predominantly white. It reduces my possible selections, lol.
Posted by Angel Fractured | September 8, 2012, 15:32*buy
Shame on me for that.
Posted by Angel Fractured | September 8, 2012, 15:32I don’t know the results of any studies have been done on it, but you know some have to exist. I just know I thought I was going blind (seriously), until I stopped reading the 561 comments that inevitably appear on le Clown man’s posts. Suddenly my eyes weren’t failing me anymore!
You I love, you’re nice. You let the whole post come out and be read in the email I get. That way I’m prepared for just a quick on site reread before I make comments or vote or both. That’s nice.
Posted by Ruby Tuesday | September 8, 2012, 16:59It freaks me out that we have never met yet you have described me perfectly…especially the radioactive green skin.

Posted by misslisted | September 8, 2012, 10:34You’re clever.

Obviously you DO have a thesaurus, as you found the word “magnanimity” I’ve found this word before. I describe great mountains, GOD, the negative balance on my credit card…. Very Nice, I’m sure you appear incredibly smart to some, but I love you for being a smartass, because it gives me free reign to do the same. Should that be rein or reign? Do you give free rein to a horse or a king in this analogy? Crap, I wish I was smarter…

Shameless self-promotion is simply a redundancy, for self-promotion is, by definition (I don’t remember whose) shameless. While I’m shameless, having given up shame for Lent many decades ago, I do have much to learn about promotion – self or otherwise. So glad to have found a master at whose knee I may learn! xoxoM
Posted by Margarita | September 8, 2012, 13:05Margarita,
That would have been the greatest Lent move since White Baby Jesus gave up his life for death.
Le Clown
Posted by Le Clown | September 8, 2012, 16:02Oh, I don’t know…giving up guilt ranks right up there, too, I think. Lined ‘em all up and knocked ‘em down when I figured out that giving up wine for Lent was silly: I didn’t miss it, and there was no redemption or lasting change. So I opted for giving up things that would be meaningful, and I did it for Lent because I am an opportunist!
Hate. Envy. Guilt. Shame. Stupidity. Narrowmindedness. Gave ‘em all up for Lent. Try it…you’ll like it! lol xoM
