Clarabell the Clown, on the old Howdy Doody program, was a clown who communicated solely by using a bicycle horn and gestures. Ever since then, clowns and bicycle horns have been associated. The "Honk Honk" represents the noise a clown's bicycle horn makes. Because we live in Clown World.

Clown World is where Up is Down, where parents beam as their children sit on the laps of drag queens during Story Time. Clown World is where "Diversity is Strength" even though clearly it is more of a terrible burden.
