Apparently died of Heart Failure in Santa Monica. He was 71.
One of the first comedians I can remember just flooring me with EVERY joke.
just found out this morning. We lost another of the greats. I\'m gonna miss ya george. :sadban:
Carlin was hands down one of the greats. To me he was so much more then a comedian, he was a social scientist and philosopher. His standup ranged from slapstick silliness to the deepest insights on human behavior. Listening to him would always cause me to look at myself and those around me in a completely different light.
:shock1::holyshit::pout::sadban:
The only comedian that I have ever paid money to see. Pretty much the only comedian that I really found funny.
"if you have to wash your hands after you touch your dick....maybe you need to wash your dick"
RIP to the best comedian ever
actually the word comedian doesn\'t really do him justice...carlin literally changed my life
If God dropped acid, would he see people?
Ever see a police car in your rearview mirror and feel really relieved when you realize you don\'t have a shitload of
**** in the trunk?

:makes sure the words ****,****,****,****,****,motherfucker and **** are said on a daily basis:
I was unaware that his arrest etc was the basis for the Supreme Court case that helped to define what is considered to be profanity.
I guess the first time he did the routine there were kids in the audience, one whos dad was a cop so he arrested Carlin for Disorderly Conduct. In an interview from the time he said it wouldn\'t have made a difference if he had known kids were in the audience.
RIP funny man
Oh and the Guy from Galactic was just arrested for using Motherfucker at a concert in Virginia the other day. They arrested him for "Abusive Language"
he was a great comedian, probably my favorite
