Why the hell does everyone hate clowns so much?

We have rules for a reason, people. Chucklefucking wouldn't happen.

 

Clowns are unrealistic. They serve no practical purpose on the station.

Now an unlocked bottomless booze fountain? That's just good sense.

I like silly things when they happen every once in a while. I think the issue most people have is when silly things are a constant factor, or pretty much canon.

Adding clown as a job slot would mean you'd have to deal with a clown every round, and if you wanted to have "serious ar-pee" you'd have to ignore the clown. Having clown ops that pop up once in a blue moon, in comparison, is mostly harmless.

Because having rules makes chucklefucking not happen. True story, bro.

As for why the clownhate... mostly because I've played on servers that have had clowns and they always, without fail, acted to inspire hate. This, combined with the fact that they're unrealistic (and not even in the cool gothic way that cults and vampires are) and immersion-disrupting means they're 100% not welcome.

So I'll ask you a question in return: why do you want clowns?

Who's Chuckle? Why is he being fucked?

You've got a good point there, for sure. I wasn't sure why clown as a job was a bad idea but I think that sums it up.
