This might be hard to understand, but when this special came out I had just moved to the US, I was learning English and American culture, and back in the 80s everyone used to talk like that - I thought Americans were so sophisticated! When I saw this, I had an “aha moment”, realizing what I already knew; that this was precisely a try-hard way of sounding sophisticated. Thank you, George Carlin, for helping a young immigrant kid see through the self-important bullshit. I learned so much from this man.
That's fascinating and yet another bullshit detector successfully installed. That seems to have been his purpose. I saw him for the first time on the Tonight Show in 1968 or '69 at the babysitter's 😂
Brilliant as always! BUT: a pre - heated oven is a pre - heated oven! May be expensive modern ovens don't need that anymore. But some old ones needed some time to come up to the right high temperature and had to be pre - heated before you could put your deep freeze Pizza in there. Little german granny teaching you!😅
I mean, that mind of his should’ve been preserved for science and if you think about it, he never missed a beat. He never tripped over his words or was at a loss for words.
A lot of standup comedians name the standup that influenced them most, like, Eddie Murphy, Robin Williams, Richard Pryor. But when they mention George Carlin, they always say, "Carlin was in a class by himself. And no one can even come close". he had an intellect, wit, and creative mind that was unique and stood apart.
This time last year I considered crypto without much knowledge and decided to have a consultation with a fiduciary, and it was incredibly insightful. I got into the market with 15k, One year and a couple of months in, and I'm up with 550k. I truly cannot stress enough how helpful experts in this field are!
He is the only stand-up comedian, I never get fed up watching/listening time after time and still enjoy the same as if it's my first time. Though there are many other great comedians like Gabriel Iglesias, Russell Peters, etc but George Carlin remains the king and stands out when it comes to stand-up comedy shows. Forever in our hearts, gone but not forgotten. Thank you, youtube.
Try Jeff Arcuri. He's witty and does crowd work. He doesn't reuse the same joke at every show like Russell Peters. I love Russell Peters don't get me wrong but after his success he stopped coming up with new stuff or mentions the old stuff at least once.

Answer: After a paragraph of stating how much George Carlin and his words/ideas mean/meant to you..... You end your praise of an ATHIEST with "God bless you" Lololol You dont even see that YOU are WHO he is mocking.... Let me take a WILD guess here.... MAGAot?

We still have a ton of his ideas, and attempts to teach us how to avoid such messes. But we also still have those who seek to divide us through bigoted ideals. Just like the Wealthy Elite have been doing to the masses for thousands of years. So Republicans that allegedly like George always ignore all of his political takes. lols

This is me on my happiest days. I am an immigrant from a third-world country fed up with the stupidity of people in this country. I feel sorry for the Natives.
@@nombreapellido9038 Agreed. You’d think people like him would continue on but sadly many of the things I grew up with seem to have disappeared. Tv shows, commercials, food, nothing is the same. I’m glad I grew up when I did.

Pre-heating the oven is a line I think of daily, everytime I turn the oven on. This man was a genius and this bit has so many, many rememberable quotes to choose from. 🥰
You pre-heat the oven for cooking. Certain dishes require the temperature to be close to an actual numerical value. You preheat to reach the desired number before the official cooking process begins. Hope this clears up your confusion

@@Jacam781 I think the suggestion is clear. Man wants to imply an assassination over... *Checks notes* A comedian Right, he was "too dangerous" or some other inane shit...
You’re doing the world a wonderful favor by posting these full length bits from his specials, rather than cutting them up into something that doesn’t really let him really speak the full thought and just becomes another soundbite. How better to honor him than by letting him speak fully and accessibly to new generations. Thank you so much for what you do!
This is my favorite comedy bit ever. Its a comedy masterclass. He was a unique comedian. Classy, silly, clever, provocative he could do it all. The greatest of all time.

Thank u for the decades of belly laughs and deep insight!❤😂
This man was insanely precious. I miss him. How many times can you watch the same jokes and still laugh out loud? I'll let you know when that happens to me.
Oh George. You have made an indelible mark on the world and the art of comedy. Thank you good sir and rest in peace. (This is the part where he says - “what if I DONT WANT to rest in peace?!?”)
One Thanksgiving, I preboarded a turkey into a preheated oven, and the fire department had to prefill the kitchen with water before we all got preincinerated.
I would loved to have heard him go off on the recent term "price point". I say the next time someone says 'price point' we stop them with a hand held up, and very poignantly inquire "but what about the 'price point _value_'???" Then use that three word phrase often, and see how long it takes before others start using it... Loved this guy for 5 decades...
As a budding stand-up comedian, I just came across this channel. It is a GODSEND!!! As a comic, you gotta study the masters, and Carlin is at the top of that list. RIP George! 🙏
Just like those that tell others what they do for a living. I have never seen on a grave stone what anyone did for work. 300 yrs. from now, they will still be listening to the great George Carlin. 👍
In addition to being my favorite comedian of all time, I got a lot of life advice from George, whether he meant his routines that way or not. A lot of his routines contain seriously insightful and true statements that have stood the test of time amazingly.
Jammin in New York is one of my favorite specials. Top to bottom, it is golden. I can recite stupidly large portions of this one and Life Is Worth Losing, and it will always make me laugh.

Yep. One of the best comedians there ever was. I remember back in the 1970s when I heard something on the radio about garbage men now being called sanitation engineers. I wondered how ridiculous it was going to get.
Much as I admire Carlin, I have to disagree on this one. “Near” in this case does not refer to probability (“nearly”), but to proximity (“they got real close to each other”). It’s common parlance in health & safety, and it’s logically and grammatically correct.
What I love most is the announcement, be it on planes or trains: "Don`t forget to take your personal belongings with you!" If I take other belongings than mine with me, the penal code will call it "Theft"!
Now I'm going to be up all night laughing🤣 Watching this guy for many years was one of my inspirations to try doing stand-up comedy and it was a wild experience.Another very funny comedian named Dave Fitzgerald was my comedy class instructor ,and what a great experience it was to learn from him.
As much as Carlin has commented on socio-economics, religion and politics, he was a comedian first. And I think that's why people keep discovering him over and over again. He's timeless because he's very funny.

This has always been my favorite standup.
Ahh Jammin In New York...i think the first full special of his that I watched and still probably my fourth favorite 🫶
Love listening to George carlin...great perspective and simple humor, its a lost art in todays world.
I love him and have always enjoyed his comedy. Imagine how much more epic it would be now!!!
3.10 "Get on the plane". F you, I'm getting IN the plane! Hilarious 😂
Carlin understood things no one could explain in a clear, concise, and considerate manner. 😂
What I love most is the announcement, be it on planes or trains:
"Don`t forget to take your personal belongings with you!"
If I take other belongings than mine with me, the penal code will call it "Theft"!
A version of this was my humorous speech my junior year of high school. Took it to state. Thanks, George.
Absolutely brilliant 👏
Bloody Brilliant, many thanks :)
Thanks for watching!
We went to another state twice to see and hear him live. Brilliant!! ❤😅
As a commercial pilot I have to totally agree with this guy.
Miss you! Your wisdom is needed today!
Boy I sure miss him ❤ Mahalo I needed this today 😂
A classic 16 min rant from the godfather of grumpiness. 😂
RIP George.
George was a legend
Thanks for tuning in ✌️
And remember this boys and girls, Mr. Carlin once played The Conductor from Shining Time Station 🤣🥰👍
He was the best!!😂😂❤
This man ahead of his time said more truth in a joke than many writers ever wrote in their lifetime
We were at his Summerfest performance when he was arrested on stage. Had to buy the album where he listed the "seven words not allowed on tv" lol
Wow! That must have been some experience 👮♂️
Man, I miss this guy. He was the realist of real 😁🥰♥️
He was a Taurus like me. The bull is painfully aware of reality. We laugh about things to prevent ourselves from crying about hopeless stupidity.
Oh man, old memories
I still remember each and every joke of this.
This was 32 years ago. Word for word this could be said today.
Now I'm going to be up all night laughing🤣 Watching this guy for many years was one of my inspirations to try doing stand-up comedy and it was a wild experience.Another very funny comedian named Dave Fitzgerald was my comedy class instructor ,and what a great experience it was to learn from him.
As much as Carlin has commented on socio-economics, religion and politics, he was a comedian first. And I think that's why people keep discovering him over and over again. He's timeless because he's very funny.
I was fortunate enough to see Carlin in concert in the mid 80s! His observations were spot on: he was a master storyteller, and funny as hell!
