surprising that that kind of point blank rampage only took out two people. too bad the first guy wasn't able to pop him on the spot.

The Continuing Crisis
In April, Elgin, Ill., police said they gave confidential informant Robert Bridges, 29, $300 to buy 7 grams of cocaine and sent him into a drug house for a sting, but later they got tired of waiting for him to leave, and they stormed the house. Inside, they found Bridges, intoxicated, with no money and only 2.8 grams of cocaine left. [Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, Ill.), 4-27-06]

AHAHAHHAHAHAHHHHHHAAAAAA!!!!You got to admit it. It was clever!

I don't get it. Just not funny in my book. Just sounds sooo rehearsed and memorized, besides the fact that what he's saying doesn't make any real sense.

Wordplays on pop culture buzzwords just isn't that funny - sounds like something senior citizens would get a kick out of:

"I'm a modern man, a man for the millennium, digital and smoke-free, a diversified multi-cultural post-modern deconstructionist, politically, anatomically, and ecologically incorrect. I've been uplinked and downloaded, I've been inputted and outsourced, I know the upside of downsizing, I know the downside of upgrading."

Har har har.

I think people either love him or hate him. The majority of his comedy has to do with language and how it's used. I think his mother was a lingustics professor or something like that and that's where he got it from.
You also have to realize that he's been doing this for 30+ years, so he's been copied so many times that now he actually seems unoriginal.

I don't know...I was an English major in college and I have a pretty decent appreciation for linguistics, and I still don't think it's funny

I'd have to agree with mheisig on this one. Guess it's just not my thing.

BigSKINBauer · 06-21-2006, 07:09 PM

i have seen him a few times before online doing stand up. I know he is considered one of the funniest people ever. I don't know much past that.

Alright, at least you know that much. He's a legend, but he's no Connie Chung!

BigSKINBauer · 06-21-2006, 10:24 PM

I saw the entire show and that guy is hilarious. I am thinking that was meant to be a kind of poetry jam kind of thing.

ArtMonkDrillz · 06-21-2006, 10:30 PM

he should probably just mention poop more

skinsfanthru&thru · 06-21-2006, 10:59 PM

George Carlin and the 7 words u can't say on TV is one of the funniest comedy routines I've ever heard.
and as the title of the video asks: WTF is up with Connie Chung? that was almost as bad as listening to yoko ono or however u spell her name.
