+Jacob Meagher How was he ahead of his time; that implies that there are more people now that think like he did. That is certainly not the case. If anything, he was born after his time. More people before him were capable of using their brains than the people after him.
Deli Cheese He was ahead of his time and he's still ahead of this time.besides what i said implies nothing. I just love his comedy and his point of view.
Jacob Meagher "Ahead of his time" is an idiomatic phrase that means the individual expressed ideas that were not acceptable in the present, but were adopted in the future. By definition, Carlin was in no way "ahead of his time". By using that phrase, you did indeed imply exactly what I said. I understand what you intended to say, but regardless "ahead of his time" was not the phrase you were looking for.
+Deli Cheese We can argue semantics all day. I believe that Carlin's opinions and view points are still relevant today and that is why he was ahead of his time. I don't care about what you think the phrase means.
Jacob Meagher Yes, of course his opinions and points of view are still relevant today, but that does not make him ahead of his time. What is more, people had his views long before him, and they will continue to be held long after him. And it is not what I think the phrase means; the phrase has a meaning, and you are misusing it. I don't know why you just can't accept that.
I'm old and bed bound. Been watching Carlin on my tablet for hours. Because I'm screaming with laughter, I mean loud, piercing screams, I can't keep my eyes open, keep dropping the tablet and sputter incoherently when my husband wants to know if I'm having a stroke. Thank you, George.
All he did was think and observe. I do the same and I wish I can create some material to rip on such as TikTok, Soy boys, millenials, and covid. Politics has been overdone so I wont touch that.
I've had the exact same idea a cpl of years back, but on how to solve the problem with crowded prisons... "Battle Royale Prison Edition" A huge concrete building with only one door, a still in the middle and everyone gets a knife, you fill it with hopeless junkies, rapists, murderers, pedophiles and lobbyists and brick up the entrance. Six months later you open it up and shoot the last man standing.
George hit the nail on the head. I went to high school with so many jocks who were so obsessed with being a macho man and you know what? They were the biggest cowards I ever met.
George Carlin was the most rare kind of the entire human species. What I believe he most embodies is that he is absolutely "GENUINE" and possibly the most truly genuine of all time. He was showing how to do it, because our biggest and most widspread flaw common to humans and especially Americans is that we struggle to be genuine with other and even ourselves and Carlin recognized that. He was the greatest preacher in my opinion because he never preached religion and always preached how to be genuine.
@@littlejimmyscumbag2551 Brainwashed how exactly? Clearly the point is genuineness, and you can either agree with Bryan's opinion or not. Regardless it's hardly terrifying.
Always love the marine and air force banter. One of the oldest beefs in the military as they're polar opposites in nearly every way. Yeah Army v Marines, yeah its typical and we enjoy it, it's common speech at this point, but Air Force and Marine Corps beef, nah that hits different
I was Air Force. Never had any problem with the Jarheads. Hell, they were kind enough to ship us in some hot food from one of their bases on one of our deployments. Beat the hell out of the MREs we were eating. Marines are okay in my book.
As you sit there in a big Air conditioned house on a hot day.. streaming internet videos high speed while slowly sipping alcohol and smoking weed after eating your 3rd full course meal of the day
@@bayarearaider7753 I really can't stand these types of arguments. "Oh there's worse places in the world, so we have no right to complain." That is such a wrong concept on so many levels there's really no point in refuting it.
@@The_Boomer_ much agreed, especially when they say well why don't you live in mexico (for example), not realizing those countries are fucked up and destablized because of us in the first place
@@automatonm99 well at least they don't burn you alive anymore for feeling offended. And they don't discriminate a whole race either because they felt offended by just having a different skin color. I would say we came quite a long way compared to have things have been.
@@automatonm99 People are conditioned through media and other sources to be like them and if you don't, your a non conformist. It's here, it's now. Look at all the generic language we speak. They (the ones in charge) want you to accept anything they say as the God given truth. Don't believe this tripe. Live your life as your own.
@@Amp661 nobody cares. you think they'll instead be competing for miss america? ffs. they'll be wearing real sleeves, just like our grandmas do anyway. but you know, maybe you can get a peek at her arm anyway, since, ::ohh whew:: it's so damn beautiful without the ink
No one is safe from this old bastard, and that's why I love him and respect him. I would say RIP George, but then I imagine his annoyance with me saying such a thing.
This guy was a genius -even when I disagree with him, he still makes me laugh. No person, organisation, belief system or philosophy is safe : If you're acting stupid, he will call you out on it. I have laughed several times at his jokes even though the joke is about me. Hats off -if there is a heaven, he should be accepted in on general principles -regardless of the things he has said about religion. Making people think cannot be a sin.
Catholic church is a sin in itself. Just like every other cult who killed for their beliefs which is ungodly/unholy if you ask me. Except if you hunt Illuminati members till the top tho which should be fine because they are the direct opposers of good/order and gods will.
As someone who goes to church every Sunday and Wednesday, his whole thing about religion resonated with me more than any church service and pastors preaching ever has.
the guys always been my hero. I grew up watching carlin and my parents never minded. didnt understand all of his humor when I was a kid, but carlin was respected by everyone because he told the truth, he had integrity. nobody like him one of a kind.
Carlin, the gift that keeps on giving, even years after he's gone. It's 2020, and he still nails the police problem beautifully. Sadly, it's all still so relevant. "New requirements for being on the police...intelligence and decency. Who knows, it might work. It certainly hasn't been tried yet."
Same, I remember watching one of his specials for the first time not long before going to battle in the siegue of Rome, and he still makes me laugh today
Not one comedian can pertain to current issues while maintaining absolute hilarity like this man did. If only our comedians of today could do the same....
🤣😝BILL BURR does, & also relates his admiration for George.I love how George has honored us NATIVE AMERICANS throughout his years.MANYBLESSINGS & keep the spirit world in tact B4 I get there to meet & shake your hand.♥️safe journeys❤️
Sorry but Bill Burr doesn't have the linguistic virtuosity and the deep sociological analisis Carlin had. He is funny when he is angry, but it gets tiring, specially his obsession with women, I used to listen to his podcast, but then I got tired of hearing why women suck every other episode.
There's a comedian that George Carlin indorsed in an interview. that is currently probably the best comedian since George Carlin. and that is Lewis Black, he has that same anger that George Carlin had. and knows what he's talking about like George Carlin did. and the fact that George Carlin indorsed him in itself. should be enough to make him the best comedian we have currently.
I am amazed at the energy he puts in expressing his firm beliefs. Outreaching those who sees sense, practicality and burning realities in them..and ...he beats those macho musclemen.
my all time favourite comedian , once I had a dream that I died and when I went to heaven Carlin and Lewis Black greeted me laughing ! Still my best dream yet!
Top ten people that should have been nominated for immortality: George Carlin, Freddie Mercury, John Lennon, Richard Pryor, Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G, Jimi Hendrix, Christopher Hitchens, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, and Bob Marley.
Bill Beliakoff Well, George was never a very political person. In his own words, he enjoys the freak show and since he's American he had the front row seat to it. Also, he himself admitted he didn't vote(something many people look down upon), so I don't think he would have much to say about Trump, maybe a few critiques but knowing he hated political correctness, and euphemistic language of a fashion widely and profusely used in today's media, and highly sensitive, "pussy" attitudes held by what many people refer to in a derogatory manner as "social justice warriors" I think George would've liked trump a bit more than hillary. But I only say this because I watched his stuff, and what's going on today is almost the same as what was going on back in his days. He probably would've remained stoic to these events, although probably a little giggly due to the fact that the media received a devastating blow with Trump' s victory.
Sound Illusions lol he would have hated trump. Would have thought he was an out of touch asshole playing on the fears uneducated low to middle class white men.
I collected George Carlin albums starting in the late 1960s, In the early 1970s a friend of mine and I would listen to them over and over again until we memorized an entire Carlin album. Then in school we did "dueling Carlins" and we were dead on too, good times. Miss you George Carlin, you were and are the greatest stand up comedian of all time.
But the incels say that George hated SJWs and would totally have agreed with the manosphere people. Nevermind that George had bits defending gay rights, abortion, and calling the manosphere losers of his day losers. They genuinely don't get that the bit where George makes fun of rich white "feminists" is him insulting Karens, not feminism.
@@paladinheadquarters7776 Literally no one has ever said that there is. There is something wrong with society imposing forced gender stereotypes on men while seeking to actively exclude the idea of men being anything other than "strong and masculine" (the actual definition of toxic masculinity) and with being a human trafficking serial rapist scumbag (Andrew Tate).
This stand up or Complaints and Grievances were my all time favorites from George Carlin. Laughed my ass off on both specials. Dont get me wrong, all of his stand up specials were awesome. RIP George.
I never used to much care for American humor until I heard Bill Hicks and George Carlin and that was only because of youtube.Of course I had never heard the good stuff on tv because they would not have allowed it.I am 57 by the way not a youngster so thank the lord for the internet eh.Jim.Liverpool.
This man was a comedian and a very fine one at that, extremely funny with great intellectual and intelligence, couldn't name any better comedian of all time including Billy connelly rowan Atkinson etc,
The scariest thing about him, is that I forget that this show happened before the turn of the millennium, and it still makes mostly sense today in 2023. Either we’ve been stuck in the early 2000s or he can predict the future, and the two aren’t mutually exclusive, it can be both.
I wish Carlin was still around today. With butthurt college leftist students, half-witted alt-righters, and MSM dividing itself over whom to side with, he would've had a field day taking this all apart.
The more i get older the more I realise just how resentful this man was. Funny, but still full of resentment and a pseudo-intellectual ideology to back it up.
@@reinapiratayquepaha I truly recommend you spend less time on the internet picking arguments with people, and more time trying to fix your interpersonal relationships, and your love life. This is not an insult even though your ego might see it as one. It is genuine advice.
