What is with the "Insane Clown Posse"?
There seems to be a lot of people who are really into them, especially for a group that doesn't really get radio or video play, and last time I checked, they have the biggest music fan meetup group by far.

Do you know any juggalos and juggalettes?

4. Mark, where are you from....
You are only the second person I've ever heard use the phrase "They blow goats."

The first is my husband who picked it up while he was at school in Nova Scotia.

Supposedly it was common parlance with the group of Quakers my hubby hung out with.

3. Well, they *ARE* insane, after all...
I'm sure they're part of the coordinated librul campaign to corrupt our youth and America's wholesome love of clowns.

"wat up yo im a sexy serial killin juggalo aka a mass murderin slotera and ive been down wit the clown 4 like 5 fuckin years n ya all u sexy juggalettes hit me up at mass_murderin_juggal o519@hotmail.com peace out mmfcl"

i don't understand ICP either, their music is kind of limited and unimaginative.....but i guess if your schtick is that you paint your face and call yourself the "insane clown posse" it is to be expected.

there is one glimmer of light in all the ICP shit and that is a movie called "Stranglemania". The ICP guys overdubbed some japanese extreme wrestling matches with themselves as the annoucers. one of the funniest things i have ever sat through. "Stranglemania 2" however is not quite as good.........dare i say it approaches blowing goats.

10. My cousin's daughter, who is in high school, likes them.
I think I'm a bit concerned that a high school girl likes them.

11. They suck.
'nuff said.

Stupid Marilyn Manson rip-off, but not nearly as intelligent (as scary as that is).

12. They kick ass
I've been to two of their concerts...full of the craziest, coolest people on the planet. If you didn't know who they were, you might be afraid of the crowd in the audience...but once you realize its jsut a bunch of crazy juggalos screaming "woo woo!!" who like getting 2-liters of Faygo soda thrown on em, you'll love it ;)

14. They were designed to drive parents nuts.
Back in my youth, all a band had to do was wash the Brylcreem out their hair & skip a visit to the barber. Add some loud electric guitars & drums & we heard about: The End of Western Civilization as We Know It!

The bar has been set a bit higher for this generation, but parents can still be made to foam at the mouth.

15. Call me clueless, but
This fall my son went to a Halloween party and one of the kids there had ICP makeup on. I had no idea what he was supposed to be. I told him he looked like a bizarro smurf.

I don't think he liked that very much.
