RIP George Carlin

I was so saddened to wake up to the news of George Carlin’s death this morning. He was a true comedic genius and will be greatly missed by those both in and out of the industry. I’m also bummed that the only time we saw him perform in person, he really sucked. It was so bad that we walked out, even. I was hoping he would redeem himself for us at another show, but I guess that won’t be happening. I’ll have to satisfy myself with old shows now.
Although he was enlightened in ways a lot of people aren’t, I think George was a tortured soul while he walked this earth. I hope he’s resting in peace now. And I hope Jesus brought him some pork chops.
I was bummed, and I wasn’t a huge fan…I enjoyed him though, especially in Dogma. His work was groundbreaking though.
I only learned of him from a book you let me borrow, and he was hysterical. Sad that he’s gone.
yeah, such a great artist
