RIP George Carlin

[Cephius]

I normally don't care for the media going crazy over dead celebrities but George is one I'm truly going to miss

I got choked up a bit today watching the TV tributes about him, and really no comedian both touches you with his philosophic rants and makes you laugh hysterically with his crazy off-the-walls comedy. I saw him live 3 times over the last 3 years, and he will be sorely missed

[BRP]

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.

Please go see Mencia.


He was entertaining for so long, he will be enshrined as one of the greatest comedians ever. A lot of people died this year.

I'll go see Mencia if it means he'll die the next week.

Something tells me he wouldn't want to rest peacefully, and would have a much better time causing a ruckus in whatever afterlife there may be.

He will be missed.

Goddamnit George, you bastard.

[Kiro]

I saw this on TV at work. Blows big time.

[Rocl]

Goddamn it. Why?

Never was special to me, but I appreciate the contribution he made to comedy and censorship.

RIP George

Fixed.

Ok, maybe not the best ever, but top 3 with little question. There are lots of funnymen; there are next to none that match Carlin.

The good die too soon. Sadly that means that Carlos Mencia will live to be 150. >_>

I think that Carlin would want to remind everyone of this sketch:

I was actually thinking of taking out Kathy Griffin or Andy Dick.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. - Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television. Some People Are Stupid. Stuff. People I Can Do Without.

George Carlin, who died of heart failure Sunday at 71, leaves behind not only a series of memorable routines, but a legal legacy: His most celebrated monologue, a frantic, informed riff on those infamous seven words, led to a Supreme Court decision on broadcasting offensive language.

The counterculture hero’s jokes also targeted things such as misplaced shame, religious hypocrisy and linguistic quirks — why, he asked, do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

George Carlin was a great comedian, since i saw no posts on him i figure i'd throw a shout out for him here. Rest in Peace man

For those who are in the dark about who George was here is his infamous Seven Words bit, keep in mind if you or your children get easily offended by vulgarity, for Christ's sake don't click the link
