Between a Jester, a Joker, and a Clown, if they have differences,...
    #21813079 - 06/16/15 12:03 AM (8 years, 7 months ago)

...which one is more talented?

And I'm curious... Can anyone provide what, if any, minor or major differences there are between them? Or explain what is w/ the different names if they are the exact same thing. Also explain those variations to those names... like big joker vs little joker, court jester vs jester, clown vs sad clown, etc. O, and also explain the reasons to their overall different looking dress codes.

id say a Jester.


Making a Jest, and joke are different things IMO. a Jest is directed at someone, usually in the close vicinity.

so with a Jest, you have to be careful not to offend, but also to be funny as well. not that jokes cant be offensive, but a jest in general is meant to poke fun at someone


at least thats my view. Clowns are just weird, and basically make fun of themselves

there may not be many people who actually identify with a jester, joker, or clown, but ive had alot of friends, and some were humerous in different ways


some were jesters and poked fun at you

some were jokers and made, well, stupid jokes

and some were just clowns who seemed to enjoy humiliating themselves

A clown is at the head of the largest fast food chain in history, and they can be both funny and scary.



A jester is a medieval court figure, and a Joker is mostly a playing card and maybe the batman nemesis based of the playing card.  Clowns are the best.

A jester most definitely. Jesters were the kings most trusted advisors.

I've always thought of a jester as the one who could get close enough to a king to topple him, and then rule that kingdom unless he were working as a good assassin for someone else.

I'd go with joker because it can be anything you want it to be.

Dude that's a lot of questions but of them all I want to be a clown the most but I think the jester is the best.  A joker is a playing card at worst and a batman character at best.

You won't be saying that when I win a 100.00 hand with a joker in my boat.

A jester is the best. I might be biased though.

Clowns are creepy!  :clown:
