ExiledInIllinois Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 RIP... Wow, a year younger than my father... He broke ground in comedy and taboo words, not even TSW has embraced in full written glory yet : The words are (with examples): 1. Sh*t - The bird sh*t on the statue. 2. Piss - I have to piss like a race horse. 3. F*ck - F*ck you. 4. C*nt - She has a nasty c*nt. 5. C**ks**ker - Go to hell, you c**ks**ker. 6. Motherf*cker - You are a motherf*cker. 7. breasts - Hey, nice breasts. As well as three "auxiliary" words: 1. Fart - I farted. 2. Turd - Who dropped a turd in the urinal? 3. Twat - Shave that hairy twat. [From: Wiki] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwight Drane Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 What....are we going to start losing one a week now? This stinks. A bit ironic that the most American Pie political commentator and the most cynical political commentator go back to back. George....I know you didn't think there was a God, but hopefully he found your sh#t funny enough to give you a pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George....I know you didn't think there was a God, but hopefully he found your sh#t funny enough to give you a pass! He's not a baby boomer, but but there are more and more people reaching old age. They will be dying more often now. I think if he hadn't had the coke problem earlier, he might have lived longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyemike Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 My father's favorite comic. Dad's a year older than George and has some heart trouble too. I was really introduced to Carlin in his funny turn as Rufus in "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure". Favorite line of his: Peachy Keen. What does that mean? Sometimes I've been peachy. Sometimes I've been keen. But I've never been peachy keen, except for one brief moment in 1966, and I think drugs had something to do with it. RIP, George.
