There's a story of a Disney staff party which included a screening of an in-house short in which featured Mickey and Minnie getting raunchy.
Walt Disney stood up afterwards, expressed appreciation, praised the quality of the work, and asked who was responsible for it.
The two animators put their hands up and he fired them on the spot.
Go to the circus, laugh at the clowns, and then go home and have nightmares about them. That's entertainment.

Ah yes, the warm cuddly side of Walt.
I'm with The Simpsons' Dr. Hibbert on Uncle Walt...
Well, only one in two million people has what we call the "evil gene". Hitler had it, Walt Disney had it, and... Freddy Quimby has it.
