I risked my whole life for that

Shout out to the kid that just messed around in school just to make it a little bit more bearable.

He was there when everyone needed him. And no one was there for him once it was all over

Teacher: “Okay Greg, It’s time to Go..”

My cousin was the class clown. 1 of 7 kids. The only one working to help his mama. Hit by a car while on his bike going home from work. Miss you cousin. I hope where ever you are that you are happy

The class clown in our year sadly passed away in a car accident a year later. What I liked about him was that he treated everyone equally where even the smart kids nerdy helped him out. May he rest in peace 🙏

This made me really sad. The known class clown of my graduating class killed himself shortly after graduation. It was incredibly shocking and tragic. Every now and then I see his Facebook pop up on the people you may know and it tugs at my heart each time. It's a tragedy he didn't get to grow up.

This was me 100%, now a Federal Firefighter for the Department of Defense, previously LAFD. So glad I cleaned up my act In the second half of senior year.

Some of the class clowns didn't have an easy life at home, so we made up for it in class. Being a clown was how we coped with it. My heart goes out to the kids who didn't make it.

"All this time, I was born to entertain. But now... now I'm going big. The biggest joke I have ever pulled! THE GRAND FINALE!"

Most of them were actually smart and still got the job done.

I was a class clown and seeing everyone succeed and get everything in life made it all worth it. Even if im still struggling my fight isn’t over until i make it too. They are helping me get there. Keep your heads up.

For anyone young who might feel this way. I was a class clown for a long time. Always trying to impress the people around me or gain acceptance via a laugh. Little did I know at the time that the favor of those I wished to gain meant nothing as they would soon no longer be influential on my life. I waisted a lot of time that could have been used to build proper skills on having friends. I'm now 30 and own a business. Have a child on the way and am as happy as I've ever been. I didn't get to go to college like all those people. My grades were no good due to playing in class and my teachers wouldn't help because I was a nuisance. Again all for the attention I thought I needed from others. The point of this book is your time is valuable. Every second spent is gone forever. So, take time to learn. Not just the books but about yourself, what you may want from this world other than attention. Maybe it's love, Safety or maybe just to feel like more than a regular kid. Your time is coming. So take those seconds and learn from them. They won't come back

The class clown has taken so many shots just to make the class not a snoozer 🥲

[drizztthornton]

I just graduated this year and after graduating all i feel is depressed without my friends. This is relatable AF

[eraserewrite]

This is crazy because every class has one, and they become super serious during test taking time or the end of the school year. We would always thank them in the same way. Wow. I never saw it from this perspective. What a hero.

And this is how greg ruined his career and became greg.

😢💪🫡 respect to the loud comedic heroes who suffer silently. They bring light to our world. If you are one, know that we wish all the joy and happiness for you that you bring to others.

class clowns are either the biggest assholes or the nicest people

[BBB-tocc]

2 of my favorite class clowns that were SO wild and never paid attention in middle or high school - one is a head nurse and the other is an accountant 🤗

So this is Christmas would go hard here
