how nice, I came home from a store meeting where the bigwigs tell us we're shutting down, and then I see this.

[TacoTaru]

Worst fucking news to end my night on. At least I got to see him live before he died.

[Korietsu]

Ok, someone needs to stop killing off all the good showbiz/news people. Ledger, Russert, now Carlin. Seriously, wtf? Probably more I've forgotten.

Don't forget Jim McKay from ABC Wide World of Sports, =[ The guy who called the Berlin Olympics when those Israeli athletes were killed and he said "They're all gone." D: So sad.

[Elcura]

What?! That fucking sucks... he was one of the few comedians I could watch over and over again and still find funny. This is one of the only R.I.P topics I actually find saddening.

Comedy just got a little less funny.

I bet he's up in heaven smoking a joint with Buddy Christ right now.

[Venture]

He always seemed so much younger then his actual age.

[Norelco]

Fuck. I'm now 2/2 on seeing a comedian live and then having them pass away within a year.

First was Mitch Hedberg and now George. I suck.

The very fact that every poster here (ON BG of all places!) so far has been respectful about this is a testament to his ability and persona. rip

Buddy Christ says, "Welcome home George."

Seen him 3 times, every time was funnier than the last, truely a sad day for comedy, and the world in general. You will be missed.

[Koyuki]

I'm kicking myself now for not going to see him live.

I bet he's up in heaven smoking a joint with Buddy Christ right now.

I bet his down in hell screaming up at us...

Get on the plane, get on the plane. Fuck you lady, I'm getting IN the plane.
