Ladies and Gentlemen, George Carlin!

[Timemaster Tim]

Eight words you can't say on air (www.bayarea.com/mld/cctimes/news/7502810.htm) is something Doug Ose wants to pass into law. And all because Bono said "the F word" during the Golden Globes award show.

[Bull]

What the BLEEP is the BLEEPing problem with just using a BLEEPing bleep to mask obscenities?

[nutsak]

Did somebody say Carlin?
------------------------------ (Carlin Quote start)------------
Do you believe in god?
No?
BANG! Dead!
Do you believe in god?
Yes!
Do you believe in my god?
No?
BANG Dead!
My god has a bigger dick than your god!

You know why they have a cock on weathervaines? Because if they had a cunt the wind'd go right through em!
------------------------------ (Carlin Quote end)------------
.. yeh, fuck em I say.. right in the ear!
.. and stuff bleeping.. just say it.. everyone swears at least once in their lives!

[Brian Rubin]

Nutsak, that God quote from Carlin is a favorite of mine. Anyway, this is more silly legislation that just takes up precious time and resources away from where it's really needed.

[Prodigy]

I was considering picking up the HBO Carlin Collection in DVD, is it any good ?

From http://www.nbc10.com/politics/2708810/detail.html:

At the Golden Globes in January, Bono said during his acceptance speech, "This is really, really freaking brilliant" -- only he didn't say "freaking."

The FCC said in October that Bono's comment was not obscene because he used it as an adjective.

. . . .

So funny.

[Jason McMaster]

Carlin was funny in the 70s

[nutsak]

Carlins funny now.
There aren't many stand up comics these days that get me laughing. I heard "the sanctity of life" from Carlin and almost pissed myself laughing. I'd vote him for president if it were possible.

[Ergo]

Carlin's routine on deception and various types of bullshit is a classic. He concludes by saying that organized religions are the best bullshit artists ever.

Fuck Mickey Mouse!
Fuck Mickey Mouse with a giant rubber dick!
Then break it off and beat him over the head with it!

Fuck Mickey Mouse with a giant rubber dick!


You missed a good oppurtunity to work in the word "tits" there.

[Rimbo]

Shit. Piss. Fuck. Cunt. Cocksucker. Motherfucker. Tits. (http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20080623.wcarlin0623/BNStory/Entertainment/home)

[Sarkus]

Why'd you resurrect a five year old thread when there's a thread about his death elsewhere? (Under TV, comics)

[Rimbo]

never thought to look for the thread over there... figured it'd be either here, or EE :)

You forgot? I thought somebody hacked my account. I only now vaguely recall creating the poll.
