I'm just still super giddy at the fact that there are George Carlin fans here on PC haha ;3

Fun Fact: George Carlin was the first ever host for Saturday Night Live. Whaaaaat?

George Carlin topic eh?

Here's something funny about him, he used to do the narration in the US adaptation of the long-running children's series Thomas & Friends. In the first four seasons of the show to be exact,

As an unsophisticated European, who is George Carlin?
I apologize for being me

GarlandDaHero March 28th, 2014 2:25 AM

Don't worry, Khilia. I don't know who George Carlin is either. /pat

Zorogami March 28th, 2014 2:29 AM

I think he is an Amercian Comedian, older guy, white hair...right?

Tsutarja March 28th, 2014 4:34 AM

I must live under a rock because I've never heard of George Carlin tbh

Shining Raichu March 28th, 2014 4:41 AM

Patrick Star, is that you? O: Actually I found him living under a rock hilarious XD

Tsutarja March 28th, 2014 5:18 AM

Ugh, the things you don't think of when you say them... Spongebob being one of those things ;_;

Raine March 28th, 2014 5:25 AM

It's cause my mind wanders when I'm sitting here bored, tired, and hungry OTL

Tsutarja March 28th, 2014 5:34 AM

Oh, in that case, I understand lmao

Sometimes I find myself looking at random stuff on PC all the time when I need to be on track with other things and get distracted haha

Starry Windy March 28th, 2014 6:44 AM

I find the same with me sometimes, and not in good way too, because it's disturbing my studies as well. All these diversions makes me unable to score properly lol.

Tsutarja March 28th, 2014 6:48 AM

I don't worry about my studies whenever I'm not at school, and that's really a bad habit I need to break.

Eevee March 28th, 2014 7:08 AM

It's just much more fun to hang on here than do homework.


Accept your temptations! 8D

GarlandDaHero March 28th, 2014 7:11 AM

Well, it's a good thing I have no homework, then.

Tsutarja March 28th, 2014 7:14 AM

You'll always have homework when you're in college, js. And if you don't, I want to know what you're taking

GarlandDaHero March 28th, 2014 7:17 AM

Actually, I'm still in Middle school. I have a ways to go to make it uni.

Starry Windy March 28th, 2014 7:18 AM

You're so lucky, doihaveto.
Oh, and this reminds me, I have some homeworks to finish soon. Even the private lessons have homework too {XD}

Try studying Nursing, that was the most stressful experience of my life. Our professor even told us that our major was the most tested out of any major in the University. That was a really convincing argument to keep people in the program -_-

GarlandDaHero March 28th, 2014 7:30 AM

Thanks Chris.

Hope you survive your homework.

You won't like high school then :P because a lot of teachers will give weekend homework assignments depending on the difficulty of the course. It's mainly core classes you get homework in though, and not elective courses.

Sorry for bringing this back up now that standard discussion has resumed, but I'd like to answer this for those of you who don't know who he is.

George Carlin was an insanely smart and intelligent individual that took the later years of his life aside to expose the truths and deceits that lay everywhere among the (once) chosen nation of the world. He went ten times farther than any other comedian ever dared to go for fear of being strung up by the man, and somehow (God knows how) pulled it off until 2008. He was a retired Army soldier for the United States, and did standard classic comedy up until the late 70s, when he turned forty. He was a gift to society, and intelligent minds look at him in awe for what light he shed upon us. And that's all I have to say about that.

Speaking of education, here's a little clip of his from his 2008 special It's Bad For Ya:



Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go out of my mind playing Sonic, since I'm not taking my meds today and it tends to make me a little high. ;)

Tsutarja March 28th, 2014 9:38 AM

My parents may know of him haha, they're caught up on comedy more than I am tbh
