him do things, don't fully convince me sometimes. i feel like he'd be faster―completely unclear like he teleported. unless he just simply holds back for wtv necessary reason depending on the situation or intention/whoever he's handling.

when i see him run in media, yes he's fast and you can see the speed trail, but its precisely bc of this that i wonder how is he not faster? i mean, how is he still visible as he's running away? i'm not saying he has to make it look like he teleported (or maybe i do😭), but the seconds in which i see

people with different health complications or anxiety disorders to handle. but to be carried by someone as fast as the flash, would if not affect everyone? i also always thought that if flash is as fast as light, he should be faster than he's depicted. instantaneous. fast as switching on the light.
January 12, 2026 at 11:08 PM
what i don't understand about this, is how would it really affect you? is his speed not too fast for our brains to handle? would the speed at which flash takes you away not kill you? breath-wise? neck-wise? cardiac-wise? its the same reason some ppl avoid roller coasters, no? bc they're too fast for

pierrot 1920s, REAL pierrot 😭😭 oMG and DON'T even get me started on the memes. 'pierrot memes' on the searchbar and its just a bunch of chile pepper "pierrot" and his freaky grin of doom and off-putting blush from freak circus ... Lord 🕴🏻

clowns being associated with jesters, but rather pierrots💔 ...with jesters💔💔 hell the fuckin nah and now everytime i look up pierrots that tomater ahh mf always pops up omg it aggravates me. (on pinterest) now i gotta be more specific when i look them up: pierrot black and white, pierrot buratino,
January 12, 2026 at 11:57 AM
wait, i just remembered―that twink ahh lil red soda can from freak circus, pierrot. he looks just like a jester, but his name is pierrot... ??? AND HE WEARS RED FROM HEAD TO TOE 😭😭 now unless you know your entertainers once again, that man does NOT look like a pierrot. ik this has nun to do with

misunderstanding began with joker and harley. that's where i first noticed it, and a moment of prayer for those who still dont know harlequins are a thing 💔 i definitely recommend commedia dell'arte! and adventuras de buratino !
January 12, 2026 at 11:17 AM
referred to as a clown or jester, he is called a trickster, because he is―and a humiliating one at that. i've never read the comics, but those include graphic violence apparently. so sounds like a crossover between him and joker would incinerate the earth. soo anywayy, i do think the (2/3)

anddd, to answer this, well.. i think so? maybe i'm just not aware of other potentially fitting chatacters to answer this. i'm just aware of joker and harley quinn that started this since that's where my frustration over this topic began. if you remember the mask 1994―while he's not ever (1/3)

and well, modern clowns in the west are all about their cheer and whimsical gaiety. pierrot was more well-beloved in france at the time. it didnt have to do with the distance like i previously thought since he was still known. it took another two centuries before he was involved with the rest. (4/4)

from italian theatre: commedia dell'arte, most likely pierrot, and in which there was another character in it literally just called 'clown.' so even though pierrot was the first whiteface clown, mr merryman simply had a greater influence on english audiences because pierrot was... melancholic (3/4)

was the whiteface clown―mr merryman―from the 16th century. he was a clown stage performer and the one who set the foundation (literally, if ykwim lol) for modern clowns later on with the whole... whiteface base.. 😌 (auguste, character, comedy/grotesque, mime, circus) he was inspired by figures (2/4)

yea, no problem! if you'd like to learn more, i recommend this website: www.clownbluey.co.uk/more-info/cl... // speaking of clowns―modern clowns―since there's so many different types as well, (whiteface, auguste, mime, pierrot, hobo/tramp, cinema, stage, and circus) the first to come to light (1/4)

understanding line between what is a clown and what is a joker or jester and waitttt, harlequins are a thing?? that's not just her name?? for people that aren't aware. cuz at one point, i didn't know all my entertainers either. im glad you brought this up! (4/4)
January 5, 2026 at 10:16 AM
so, if you know your entertainers, joker's name feels kinda off, ANDD you wouldn't associate harley quinn with jesters. he's potrayed like an evil clown, but he's called the joker, and jokers are jesters, not clowns. his facepaint is also obviously clownish inspired. it kinda blurs the (3/4)

than the 'jester prince of crime' with an extra syllable. and harley, well, she's not even a jester, yet many people have associated her as one. its literally in her name, 'harley quinn.' harlequins were mischievous servants with a romantic pursuit. that matches her relationship with the joker (2/4)
January 5, 2026 at 10:16 AM
you're right, jesters and clowns are not the same, and date all the way back to ancient egypt and rome. clowns are modern entertainers whereas jesters performed for the royal courts. joker being known as the 'clown prince of crime' was probably chosen because it rolls off the tongue better (1/4)

while the game became depressing and tragic in a newfound way for me, it was truly inspiring at the same time. really, this game was awesome despite what versus xiii could've been. i do believe they are two separate stories after all. 2/3
