I agree with both G-man and bsams...the last thing that Carlin did that was funny top to bottom was "Carlin at Carnegie" on HBO; you know, the one with "a place for my stuff", "fussy eater" and "have a nice day".
His stuff over at least the last 10 years has been bile filled rants with moments of faint humor. It's such a shame cuz I absolutely loved Carlin when I was a kid. Used to be that HBO would air his special George Carlin at USC and George Carlin: Again! followed by Richard Pryor Live in Concert every New Years Eve. Grew up on his humor and he led me to other comedians that I might not have heard of otherwise.
Sad to see him go but, in terms of comedy, Ol' George had been gone for years....
Oderint, dum metuant.
You are a god damned idiot, you know that? You ought to be smacked upside your dumb-fuck head, even after all these years. Shame on you! -USCHI showin' some love
