Anyone a George Carlin fan in here? Sucks he passed away.
My parents took me to see him when I was 13. I'm sure I didn't get half the jokes, but that guy was hilarious. I really wanted to see him at least once more.

Damn, sad news.
I'd just recently over the last 2 years or so started to watch some of his stuff, he was brilliant.

Big fan. Used to buy his books, albums...really sucks to hear. He was never healthy and had drug problems. It's not like 71 is young, anyway, but it's a big loss.

By far my favorite comedian, I only got to see him once but was planning on seeing him a couple of times later this year. This made my 4 hour drive this morning so depressing when I heard the news on the radio.

Never really watched his material, but today I was curious about his stuff and have been watching it on youtube, pretty funny. R.I.P.

Yeah, I didn't hear about this until now either. I could kind of feel it though cause his last HBO special wasn't as good as his older stuff. He didn't seem all there. Real funny guy who was never afraid to speak his mind.

I thought his last HBO Special was great. I heard a few comedians say today they thought it might have been his best material yet.

ehhh I wasn't a big fan of it. I might have missed some good parts though, cause I only saw about 75 % of it, so I guess my judgement is a little poor. LMAO about the part where you were supposed to imagine your grandparents in hell. "Grandma would bake you her favorite pie, and she wouldn't need an oven." or something like that
