RIP George Carlin, May 12 1937 - June 22 2008
He was 71 when he died yesterday from heart failure. If you don’t know who George Carlin was, I don’t know how that’s even possible, actually. If you don’t know who George Carlin was I hope you’re under the age of 18 and/or were raised in a strict religious cult because the man was brilliant. There’re a ton of clips of him on Youtube if you wanna reminisce. Click here for a bunch. He was the author of some of the dirtiest jokes to not be the Aristocrats, and scathing political and religious satire. There. I told you, just in case you only landed on Earth today. Go watch some of his bits. Here’s one about death that may help those mourners through. Don’t mourn for long though, he was always a celebrant, so instead celebrate his work and move on to more acts of creation like writing or singing or making babies (unless you’re a big dummy, in which case, please don’t procreate).
