    George Carlin Dies at 71

    Possibly one of the best comedians ever, the amount of sarcasm in his shows just kills me, it's absolutely hysterical.

    If you've never heard of him browse him on youtube (definitely 100% NSFW)

    May he rest in peace.

    I have to admit, it hit a complete blank with me...

    His "Religion is Bullshit" is one of my all time favorites:

    He was honestly one of my favorite comedians. Its a sad day for intelligent comedy. Whenever someone like that dies, it makes me sad, because for a comedian, its bad if other people are doing your shtick, but once you die, how long will people remember it? His stuff was the kind that people should remember. It was both funny and wise words.

    Yeah, you're right, if you can find it, "It's Bad For Ya", is an awesome HBO special. You may still be able to get it on Youtube still.

    I still can't believe he died. It's just very hard to accept the fact that one of the funniest guys alive just passed away. His witty humor was some of the best.
