My Favorite Comedian

Plinky asked, “Who’s your favorite come­dian? Is there any­one you can’t stand?”

George Car­lin May 12 1937 — June 22 2008

George Car­lin is the King of Come­di­ans as far as I’m con­cerned. He’s always hilar­i­ous. I love watch­ing old clips and read­ing his books. His death was a huge loss to the world and came far too early. It cer­tainly doesn’t hurt that he shared my lack of respect for reli­gion.



I see no rea­son to name come­di­ans I can’t stand and give them atten­tion, but purely phys­i­cal com­edy leaves me cold, as does any­thing that involves pick­ing on mem­bers of the audience.

“Go ahead, America. You don’t need us.”

“Watch all the top­soil go down the Mis­sis­sippi. Trans­port your chil­dren in bas­kets on top of your SUV death­mo­biles. Keep play­ing with your cute and cud­dly pal, the atom. Press your nose against the TV screen for even more edu­ca­tional 3rd Rock From The Sun enjoy­ment. Use plen­ti­ful gaso­line to burn book– read­ers at the stake. Don’t eat any­thing but sug­ared pork lard. Do what­ever you want.”

I needed that laugh, so I fig­ured you might enjoy it too.
