Carlin swore like a fucking champion. Very few people choose their words so effectively.

You're a textbook case of having your cake and eating it too.
You can't claim swearing is juvenile and ignorable, and then revere someone who advocates the free use of all words naughty and/or nice under the belief that context not content is what makes a word bad.

I demand you recant your earlier remarks about curse words or renounce your love of Carlin :D

My XM Comedy station was replaying some of his old bits including an old interview with him about growing older and dying. What he wanted on his tombstone:

"He was just here a second ago!" :(

why does that last sentence make me imagine you shaking his hand... right before killing him and crossing him off your list?
Wait? This isn't normal behaviour?

Interesting...

Yeah, well, I demand you say something of worth. I think we'll both find life is full of disappointment.

Oh wait, let me make it funnier.

I fucking think we'll fucking both fucking find fucking life is fucking full of fucking disappointment. Shit goddamn tits.

Oh come on Duff... you're not even trying anymore.
I know you can be a bit more entertaining than that.

Go on - say something that I can use against you in a week's time :D

I was in LA on Wednesday and happened to walk by the shrine that people had put together on George Carlin's star. Very nice, until some homeless guy jacked one of the pictures saying "Well, someone else will take it!"
