Happy Birthday George Carlin

[AllentownJake]

"The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves, “You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I’m just not close enough to get the job done." -George Carlin

May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008

You were the best there was, and probably the best there ever will be.

17. Apart from being a brilliant comedian, he has to be considered

one of the most prominent philosophers in America at the end of the twentieth century.

The day he died America's average IQ dipped a bit. RIP, Mr. Carlin.

Carlin was the absolute best.


The closest thing to him today is MAYBE John Stewart.... if he wants to be.
