Breaking news: George Carlin has died

TBi said:
Chris Rock played Rufus (assuming you are talking about Dogma).

I have a tonne of Carlin's material at home. My favorite is his rant about airlines!

Brilliant... just brilliant!

He saw things in ways i never thought of looking at them. Opened my eyes to the sheer absurdness of some things (I won't go into detail) and the brilliance of others.

i don't think anyone would mistake chris rock for george carlin.

I listen to his airport routine right before I fly. It strangely makes me feel better about flying :)

Fear of Germs is one of my favorites, too.

I'll be listening to him all day today.

Carlin was amazing.
 
My dad just came in and told me about this. Carlin was my favorite comedian; one who could actually get me to laugh. I was just thinking about how long he would live the other day when I watched 5 of his HBO specials on Google. This is really sad news. No comedian was as funny as Carlin. Rest in peace, George.
 
I found this highly amusing...

Joe Pesc(i) You George!

Carlin will always be one of my favorites. I guess it's fitting that I unintentionally blurted out one the "7 dirty words" when I read the headline of his death. :eek: I'm glad I got the chance to see him perform live within the last couple of years.
 
the only man I know to get arrested for profanity.. was def pushing the social norms his entire life..

LOL I have 4 of his CDs I gotta get more! I love the Airline Announcements too, I've listened to them a lot, but I just found the video on YouTube, and it's better with his facial expressions :). For those who who aren't familiar go watch it now, hilarious stuff.

ROTFL. I was just thinking how unfunny I think he was, but this routine changed my mind... a little.
 
This came as an utter shock to me this morning. I was crushed.

I just went to go see the guy live in May! The show was great, and I thought he looked great.

RIP you dirty old man! :D

I got through three of them. Did the rest intentionally.
