College of Fools

A fool, a tumblr, a clown, any discipline that involves making a mockery of one's self or others is that of a Fool. Fools often have to act dumb in order to appeal to the masses, but many are secretly quite intelligent. Through the use of prat falls and self mockery, Fools entertain and delight others, putting themselves in a place of distress or danger without ever truly being at risk.
