Today is a sad day. My favorite comedian, George Carlin, has passed away at the age of 71.
Known for his edgy, provocative material, Carlin achieved status as an anti-Establishment icon in the 1970s with stand-up bits full of drug references and a routine about seven dirty words you could not say on television. A regulatory battle over a radio broadcast of his “Filthy Words” routine ultimately reached the U.S. Supreme Court.
So here is his most famous routine, The Seven Words you Can’t Say on Television. NOT safe for work! But fuck ‘em. Watch it anyway.
I am sorry to hear that…
I liked his humour. But it’s always good when the earth sheds a left winger.
I thought you didn’t like atheists. Carlin was a hardcore atheist.
