RIP George Carlin

The Good Guys

georgecarlin1

George Carlin, a man as responsible as anyone for the current freedoms of the Internet, died of heart failure yesterday in Santa Monica. The comedian, writer and actor was recently named the recipient of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. He was 71.

After the jump, some of Carlin's greatest hits, including "Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television." (NSFW, but tell your boss to screw.)

Hunter S. Thompson, Kurt Vonnegut and George Carlin are all gone, yet four heart attacks haven't been able to stop Dick Cheney's blackened, arrhythmic heart from lub-dubbing along. Life isn't fair…
