Hm. That's a shocker. No offense to the guy, but I never found his stuff to be really funny. It could be because I haven't heard all of his comedy, but I have heard quite a bit. People who are fans have my condolences, and at least there will be others rising to be just as good as he was.

After watching a tape and letting it go all the way to the end, stop and then rewind, the TV came on. Turns out it's classic SNL from the '70s.

George Carlin is the guest host and does some stand up between skits.

Damn this is depressing.

It's actually pretty fucking nuts.
I'm watching Part 3 right now, it's pretty fucking great. XD

Awesome act.

I didn't realize he was over 70 until I read more about his death. It at leasts make me feel better that he lived a pretty long life.

Here's part 1 of 7.

This made me really sad. I love George Carlin. He said all the things that everyone thought, but was just afraid to say. His work was true genious. I think that he'll really be more known than ever now that he is dead. It's that whole 'you don't appreciate something until it's gone' thing.

This is just not fair. I never got a chance to see him live.

I shoulda prayed to Joe Pesci; I woulda at least had a 50% chance that he coulda lived.

Yeah, man, that's his "Seven Words You Can't Say on Television," and actually I haven't been to Something Awful in at least 2 years. Heh.

So yeah. For people who're probably confused:

I always saw him as somebody who would never die even if he became 4 million.

But yeah, for some reason I was thinking this was old news, then I remembered it was Richard Pryor that I was thinking about. Indeed, this news sucks.

Now for Carlos Mencea (sp?)...

I heard about this on the way home from school this morning... I wanted to see him in person just once. =(

Whoa, quite the shocker. I, too, was expecting a Rickroll.

That's just...wow.

Wonder what that will do to his career? Will he be forgotten, or will it just become better in his absence? I mean, like how painters become more popular after their deaths...

I'm quite shocked.

Seriously, to the point that I thought this was going to be a Rickroll.

After reading a couple articles that noted that he had a heart condition since the '70s, I guess it's not so entirely unbelievable, but still.

Damn... just damn.

Sucks doesn't it?
