Gato 0 #26 June 23, 2008 Shit. I had no idea he had passed. One of my heroes is gone - he made me think, he made me laugh, and he made me not take myself too seriously. I really loved that guy. One of my favorite lines from GC: To Jay & Silent Bob: "Hey, if it'll get me halfway across the country, I'll take a shot in the mouth." I'm going to raise a glass in his honor tonight. "Him, Him, Fuck Him!!!!" T.I.N.S. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hottamaly 1 #27 June 23, 2008 I really love George. I voted for him for President more than once. Would have been a good wake up call for most. His humor was priceless and so thought provoking. You are missed George. Skydiving gave me a reason to live I'm not afraid of what I'll miss when I die...I'm afraid of what I'll miss as I live Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #28 June 23, 2008 Wow! I just can't believe it. I'm not telling my current age, but I went to one of his shows in 1977. He was freakin' hilarious! R.I.P., Mr. Carlin!!! Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts? (RIP Buzz) Yep, you're a postwhore-billyvance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RastaRicanAir 0 #29 June 23, 2008 Awwww ffffffuuuuuuuuuccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkk man!!!! Way to piss on what was turning out to be a picnic of a day! This is the biggest loss to the art of comedy since Richard Pryor. And like Richard, Carlin was a seminal influence in my life, comedically, philosophically and even musically. The First Amendment has lost a true front line hero and defender. I'll smile a little less broadly today. Namaste, motherf*cker. I know this is the first of a thousand clips people are going to post, but I suspect this is the very reason he wrote it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpmiLPc6g18&feature=related OrFunV/LocoBoca Rodriguez/Sonic Grieco/Muff Brother #4411 -"and ladies....messin with Robbie is venturing into territory you cant even imagine!-cuz Robbie is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tmaricle55 0 #30 June 23, 2008 I have to agree! I loved his BLUNT honesty and how truly funny it was. WAKE UP AMERICA! Just for giggles I might have to watch Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Muff Brother # 3883, SCR # 14796 ICD # 1 - Pres. Yeah, I noticed and I think it's funny! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrFreefall383 0 #31 June 23, 2008 Pisses me off. I just saw him live last year. What an amazing talent. I guess we all knew it was coming eventually, he was old and definitely not in the best of health, but damn, still gonna take me a while to comprehend it."If at first you don't succeed... well, so much for skydiving." - aviation cliche Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LongWayToFall 0 #32 June 23, 2008 Fuck!!!!!!!! Damn this thread. Ruined my day. George Carlin made me laugh harder than any other comedian, not just because of the content of his jokes but his ability to paint a picture and deliver it perfectly. This the funniest shit ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6zj5nhASk0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingJ 0 #33 June 23, 2008 If I recall correctly, he looked for his life to be summed up with: "Shit, he was just here a minute ago!" As a couple others mentioned, he was more than a celebrity. I have incredible disdain for celebrity in general, but he was an icon. In an interview from a few years back he giggled a bit and said "pretty cool, huh" when asked about having his name as a footnote in legal history following his Seven Dirty Words act making it to the US Supreme Court in regard to decency standards.Killing threads since 2004.
