But I'm not wearing a clown suit

A statement that serves as an acknowledgement among vendors that no matter how amazing a finished product is, the client will invariably find something to complain about or request a change that actually makes it worse. The client does so while wearing a metaphorical clown suit.
We just completed the client's new website, and it exceeded their specifications in every way. I think it turned out great, but I'm not wearing a clown suit.

blowing a clown

To announce something in a public forum (such as facebook) that is shocking and probably untrue for the sake of garnering attention.
"Anne posted on her page that IRS is after her for back taxes and she's going to jail for 15 years--even though she's only 17. That girl is an expert at blowing a clown."

A Clown

Hello I am just a clown,
The clown that nobody cares about.
Whenever you frown,
Remember in this clown – your happiness was found.
In your eyes, I was just a clown.
Remember this clown whenever you fool around
What are this heart and soul all about?
In this clown, her happiness was never found.

Every teardrop was blood.

Story about this poem: Clown in this poem represents someone who does not care about looking ugly when wearing unique make-up/costume to make others happy while neglecting the happiness of her own. Sad clown "is the ones who spend their days making people laugh and bring happiness are often the ones who go home and feel sadness."

«“I think the saddest people always try their hardest to make people happy because they know what it’s like to feel absolutely worthless and they don’t want anyone else to feel like that.”, said Robin Williams. In making others laugh, they find their solace.»

The clown in this poem is one of the Sad Clown Paradox examples. "Remember in this clown – your happiness was found.": The blissful feelings, the imagination, the loving and caring feelings were found from the clown. However, the person used that imagination that he found from the clown and applied to someone else "whenever you fool around". In the end of the day, the clown goes home and asks herself "What are this heart and soul all about?" That is when she realizes, deep inside, "her happiness was never found."

It is a cycle of the Sad Clown Paradox that nobody is willing to stop the invisible abuse in the society. The cycle of give–and–take and

Imbalance.

In every single aspect of our lives.
