Question:

What is a no-talent *** clown?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

I assume you mean a "no-talent acc clown" and Y! crossed out the two s's? This refers to any person who can't hack it - is a fake, a phony, a pretender, someone who is not the real thing, just clowning around. The term was immortalized in the movie Office Space and has been used by millions to describe inept bosses.

Samir: No one in this country can ever pronounce my name right. It's not that hard: Samir Na-gheen-an-a-jar. Nagheenanajar.
Michael Bolton: Yeah, well at least your name isn't Michael Bolton.

Michael Bolton: There was nothing wrong with it... until I was about 12 years old and that no-talent *** clown became famous and started winning Grammys.
Samir: Hmm... well why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael?
Michael Bolton: No way. Why should I change? He's the one who sucks.
