Carlin was not only the greatest comedian of all-time, but a brilliant poet, philosopher, and prophet as well.
The world is lesser since his passing.
well..... Heinz Erhardt (1909-1979) would have been up to par as comedian, and poet....
Besides all that he was , he was a Great entertainer as well .. there are times he would just bullshit you or cross that line with you on a tough subject and safely bring you back etc..
Originally, commercially baked bread was sold in a solid loaf. It also had a very hard crust. In 1925, the Continental Baking Company acquired the recipe for Wonder Bread, a small regional bread known for its soft texture. However, the bread was so soft that it was difficult to uniformly slice with a knife. So James Marshall, the head of Continental Baking, decided that they should pre-slice their bread into uniform slices. It took a long time to perfect a wire slicer that could uniformly slice soft bread, but it was an instant hit when it was released in the early 1930s. Because of the huge public reaction to being able to buy sliced bread, any great idea afterward came to be called "the greatest thing since sliced bread."
That's awesome, I had no idea That's where that saying comes from.
Still pales compared to the Pyramids or a lava lamp.
Интересный факт, спасибо, что поделился
Thanks for the explanation, I had no idea...
Thanks didn't know that :)
Damn, I must be getting old. In my 64 years I've heard everyone of these many times. Thanks for making me feel like a living, breathing, walking antique. Peace and Love
I know that feeling, when my kids were young I would use the same lines my parents used on me and they would look at me like I was talking a foreign language. There's one; what's wrong with you am I talking a foreign language?
same, I'm 57 and heard all of these too
42 here, and I am well-acquainted with every single one of those sayings. You're not old. It's just that the younger generation regards anything more than 5 minutes ago as, 'Ye Olde Times', because they have the historical perspective you'd expect from a group that grew up on TikTok.
@@dmwalker24 LOL true
@@dmwalker24 I'm 30 so maybe a bit older than Britt (EDIT: jk she literally said shes early thirties in the video) but still pretty actively using social media and have friends that do as well. I don't think a single one uses TikTok regularly. I've never even been on the site nor have I made a single tweet. TikTok and before it Vine I think is very new. The vast majority of its users are kids and teens. I think most adults 21 and up don't use it lol you see adults making content on there but the viewers are kids. Someone who actually uses it can correct me but I never even heard of Tiktoks a few years ago its like it blew up in 1 year. The people in their 20s definitely didnt grow up on Tiktok it was mostly facebook/instagram/youtube when they were kids I believe.
The riot act was a law that required a police officer to read the law word for word before they could arrest you for rioting .
Thanks for this!
@@brittreacts The Riot Act 1714 (1 Geo.1 St.2 c.5) was an act of the Parliament of Great Britain which authorized local authorities to declare any group of 12 or more people to be unlawfully assembled and to disperse or face punitive action.
@@brittreacts Specifically "Reading the riot act" to a group of people informs them they are accomplices engaged in a criminal riot. Like instead of the 12 of you breaking windows as a bunch of individuals, once you've been read the riot act, each of you are responsible for eachothers crimes if you don't immediately disperse. So if someone else in the riot kills someone, you're all guilty of murder. But only after the act has been read to the crowd to inform them this is the case. It makes no sense as a phrase "I'm going to read you the riot act" compared to saying "Read them" but I guess it just means "Tell them they are in trouble.".
But you can see the progression. A bunch of people acting up and you threaten to read them the riot act. Eventually it becomes a threat you use against a single person despite it making no sense. accomplices. The riot act also allowed anybody to assist the police in dispersing the riot and gave them legal protection from prosecution for violence done to the rioters. It came into effect one hour after having the act read to them.
One example of it being used was the Peterloo Massacre where 18 people were killed and 500 injured, with no consequences for those who did it, because the law protected them.
The phrase "Read them the riot act" carries implication of collective guilt and punishment, a final warning before you have no protection under the law if you don't stop immediately, and so on. But it's obviously just used as "Be really mad at" rather than for example a teacher reading the riot act to an unruly classroom with the implication that if they don't immediately behave, they will all be punished for anybody misbehaving, and anybody misbehaving should be beaten up by their peers and the ones doing the beatings won't be punished.
The riot act was a way for the British government to be able to deal with riots. It didn't have a whole lot to do with reading shit word by word, but it did allow authorities to beat your ass if they suspected you might be ready to riot..The British were a lot more civilized about law long before the US..
Anyway, I grew up with my old man threatening to read me the riot act all the time, not that I was a criminal or anything, but he had that kind of voice that made the threat of getting read the riot act sound a lot more worse than anything my old man actually ever did about things. 😅
@@martinoamello3017 lmfao. you're right, they wouldn't beat you ass. the punishment for not following the orders after being read the Riot Act was the death penalty. The law in itself was used to silence people from protesting against King George. Yeah, sounds very civilized to me. Jesus, you people need to get educated.
He was such a classic. Carlin always makes you think. Haha!
All of these expressions were widely used in the mid-20th century. By the time he did this routine in the mid-90s, most of them were beginning to be phased out of the average conversation.
I can't remember if you have already seen his bit on euphemisms, if you haven't you should.
Have a day as fantastic as you are!
"Legally Drunk" refers to the blood alcohol content. Most states draw the line at .08, at which point one is "legally drunk," even though most people aren't feeling affected by the alcohol yet.
It was quite obvious and I’m not even American. I was surprised at Britt’s confusion.
Brings a tear to my eyes watching another person fall in love with Carlin.
And not just his comedy but him.
I remember George Carlin from when i first watched him on TV. He was clean shaven and presentable, dressed in a suit, dress shirt, tie and shoes.
Al Sleet the Hippy Dippy Weatherman! .... With all the Hippy Dippy Weather Man!
And Rufus in Bill and Teds excellent adventure
We are practically the same age, you and I. But I have older parents (mom and dad were 45 & 47 when they had me) so I grew up around some older generational language not to mention I've been familiar with George Carlin since I was at least 10 years old. He is definitely THE GOAT imo.
Yeah, I grew up around my grandmother, and she would use every one of those sayings...given it was '05 and George was past 60, I'm glad she gave him the benefit of the doubt saying she felt too young to be in the room, lol...
There was actually a Riot Act (1714 UK) that allowed police to declare a group of 12 or more people to be unlawful assembly. But 'read you the riot act' became slang for a stern warning.
Britt... you're too smart for this drab generation. You should've been alive back in our time... 60s/70s. You would have LOVED George, Richard, Jonathan, Robin Eddie.... in their youth! ❤😂
Wow you're certainly hitting that algorithm hard with that description box!! All the power to ya, great reactions.
Haha! Someone’s gotta do it 🤣
@@brittreacts Funny you should mention that you would like to learn the origin of some of the phrases that George Carlin was using..."Hair of the Dog to Paint the Town Red - The Curious Origins of Everyday Sayings and Fun Phrases" is $12.95 in paperback on Amazon...or $9.99 if you want to download it to a Kindle. You're welcome. I was more than happy to help. And I love the new hairstyle! It's the Bee's Knees! 😁
@@chrisjohnson1599 well we both know Britt has NEVER heard the expression "the bee's knees!" LOL! I am glad you mentioned that there ARE BOOKS available ( and quite a few, I might add) that are totally about the origins of certain sayings as well as other things
I'm 82 and know every one of those sayings, and more as I was raised by my grandparents. I was like transported in a time machine as far as sayings go, a couple of generations behind the times. I was born a couple of weeks into WWII but the sayings were mostly WWI and the Depression era ones that I nibbled on as a toddler and beyond.
Legally drunk means you are over the alcohol legal limit level in your system and are considered legally drunk according to any state's limit law....this is very real and used every day..term may be different but that is all. lol ...today its called over the legal limit of alcohol in your system.
I literally realized this as I was saying it back to myself lol!
@@brittreacts lol
I'm illegally drunk!
@@OMGtheykilledKenny42 I'm working on it
I loved most about George how sharp he was about language - I use a couple of his routines in my English classes to teach students about words :-)
Us that are older heard them all or said them over and over. Younger generations now have their own and I'm lost on most of them. 🙂 George was a philosopher. A very intelligent man.
Lol, sliced bread really did change the food industry and was a really big deal. Just saw a show about it a couple of weeks ago.
I have heard and said almost every one of these in my life time, and STILL use them and I still hear them used by others.
George's "Why are hemorrhoids called hemorrhoids instead of asteroids?" was also hilarious 🤙
Lava lamps were a big thing back in the late 60s and early 70s. Real vintage. Have you ever heard the phrase "stool pigeon"? aka "stoolie"? They used to use a decoy of a pigeon to catch other pigeons. The decoy was set upon a stool that rocked gently bringing the other birds in where they were then netted.
GREAT Reaction!
"Legally Drunk" is short for "By This State's Legal Standards you're too chemically impaired (by Alcohol) to safely operate a motor vehicle.".
In the 70's, we had "DWI"s" (Driving While Intoxicated), but since "Intoxicated" was "Too Vague" ("Intoxicated " can be described as "Being in Love"), They changed the Charge to "DUI" (Driving under the Influence").. But even
THAT'S too vague... "Under the Influence"... of what? Were you Drunk... High... Pissed off... The voices in your head not on Speaking Terms...? WHAT influence?
DUI applies to now being stoned on weed.. under 'influence' means anything...
In Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada during the great depression, a group of unemployed men congregated around the post office engaging in a protest. The mayor at the time, fearing the worst actually had someone (likely a police man) address them by reading the "riot act", an actual piece of legislation which, upon being read, legally deemed any group of people over a certain size an illegal association, which could then be broken up by the police. It didn't work, of course; it inflamed passions even more leading to an actual riot.
Great reaction little lady! The term well you know where you can stick it, was used way way way before the 90's 🙂 😂😂😂 OMG I am old as F, I use a lot of these still! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The gold about Carlin is not only his message but the fact that people who wouldn’t agree with his message in a serious format unironically share his content
Britt you are awesome enjoy your reactions quite the beauty
Remember the band called The Tubes ? They were around in the '80s.
When bread started being sold sliced it was a big hit, people were extremely pleased with it. After about 100 years the sheen has worn off
Lava lamps rule. I still have one and like to watch it when I wanna zone out, relax, and think. I don't credit the 60s with much, but I got to give it to the 60s there.
It means you're going to jail, girl!! Nobody's been told their father is going to read them the riot act since the 50's!
he was a genius. dont have many great comedians like him anymore.
Britt, I recently retired at the age of 66 and before I did it was fun educating the younger members of our team. We had an awesome team of programmers, but there was old fogeys getting ready to retire, and the young folks, not quite 30 yet (awesomely talented) but the generational stuff they didn't know kept blowing our minds. Movies they didn't even know about. Expressions they had never heard the origins of. There's one, "he drank the Koolaide". We explained that one and they were horrified! They had never heard of Jim Jones and Guyana and what happened there. Several of us have now retired but we keep in touch. Those kids are really talented, wonderful people!
The movie for that cult was so deeply disturbing to watch; I've never forgotten it.
I love George Carlin he was ahead of his time. Britt love the hair
"Blowing my mind"... there's one. Lol
Legally drunk is a legal term ... When a cop gives you a breathalyzer and you over the limit, you are legally drunk (ie, you can be charged with drunk driving). Drunk driving arrests were in the news a lot back then because of MADD.
Legally blind is a similar term. If your vision test is below a certain cutoff, you can legally claim to be blind and receive benefits.
You may remember a movie title that played off this usage, Legally Blonde.
I’m 27 and I’ve heard the majority of these but there are many different walks of life 😌
I had a green lava lamp and a green see-through phone! I was sooooo stoked on those things! 😁
your personality is beautiful. And so darn cute.
terrific smile.
I love spending my Sunday afternoon time with you and your guests😃😄❤️👏👍I’m a big fan of MrCarlin!
P.S.: Naaaaan…I can’t believe you’re 33/34! You look like 23/24! When you are less than 30, you are pretty. When you are more than 30 you are beautiful and when you are exceedingly over 40, you are gorgeous BUT it depends on you and your genes😉🤭.
George Carlin on Race is something i can recommend you reacting to.
I imagine, that this performance of George's helped put an end to the common use of a lot of these sayings, because it made people too self conscious to continue using them.
"Legally Drunk" has been mostly replaced with "above the legal limit." It's what they say when someone gets a DUI, which has also changed and used to be DWI. I am really surprised you haven't heard a lot of these phrases. I'm only 7 years older than you and I used to hear them all the time. Some of them not so much anymore, but still sometimes.
George is what I would call a comedic philosopher
Legally drunk is still used all the time in the media (as legally intoxicated) it simply means the offender met the legal standard of blood alcohol level to be considered drunk as far as the law is concerned... usually .08, that's the standard for prosecuting offenders
I love his routine about euphemisms. Also, the evolution of the English language is interesting to me. what phrases stand the test of time and which ones do not. I don't know if "burning the midnight oil" is still in use, but it was in the late 80's and I'm pretty sure it predates electricity.
Dandy - [Inf.] very good; first rate (I had to whip out my handy, dandy dictionary to be sure) lol
Brit, I really want to say that you’re not too young to know this humor. You and I are the same age and this is literally what I grew up on 🤣
Saint George is my all time favorite comedian lol.
You should see the display room devoted to him at the National Comedy Center. Amazing!
"Riot Acts" are real things. Even the Founders enacted them.
Whenever someone says they’re fine, I always think of the “definition” of fine in the remake of The Italian Job: Freaked out, Insecure, Neurotic, and Emotional.
Legally drunk refers to the blood alcohol number you surpass to be officially drunk in the books
Holy shit the clear phone!? I love this girl.
If y’all had a clear phone rise up. 😊
I watched his very last tv special a few 3-4 momths before he died. No one will ever compare to him except maybe richard pryor.
i grew up in New York and i actually knew people who said those things in that very accent!
You should react to George Carlin seven dirty words
Love you young cats digging ol' jokes.
Peace on earth.
I think you would enjoy Steven Wright
Mitch Hedberg as well both are brilliant
I loved your reaction.
I also loved that you mentioned how you like how he dressed like a poet or writer. Because in an interview I saw him say although he's fully aware he is a comic. He also said he always considered himself a writer, who revites his material for an audience.
Evidence of this is actually he has a lot of books out there. But they're not like autobiographies or memoirs. Its literally his stand up bits in written form so its a funny satirical read.
He even has done full recordings for his books. So his audiobooks are also hilarious to listen to.
I always love seeing people react to King George.
New sub!
Legally drunk has been around a long time, and is STILL in use today. It means a person has met the legal requirement to be CONSIDERED drunk. In most places, a person who has a blood alcohol level of 0.08% is "considered be law" to be drunk. That means they are legally (by law) drunk.
I know I'm running a bit late on this, but I knew every one of those sayings. Granted, I'm in my mid-50s so that's part of it, but I suspect a lot of it may be regional as well. Different parts of the country use different expressions, or may see some that used to be common linger longer than in other parts. Rural areas are probably going to see older expressions linger longer than fast-paced, more diverse urban areas, for example. New expressions are probably not going to spread as fast in those areas as well, although more so in the last decade or two of social media than in earlier years. My mother and her family have lived in or very near my hometown since the late 1860s while my father's family lived in southern Illinois since the early 1800s and only arrived here in the late 1950s. The two sides of my family had some overlap on expressions, but both sides also had a lot that the other had never heard, including many of them on George's list. I can remember many debates between my parents centering around expressions or even just single words that one insisted everyone knew and the other had never heard. They could get hilariously riled up over it sometimes!
I know i'm late, but I will try to tackle the "down the tubes" reference. WAY back in ye olden days, some office buildings (and banks with a certain style of drive up lane) used pneumatic tubes with a container to transport items from point A to point B using compressed air. In the office building many times they would lead to the mailroom. At the bank it would let them add another lane to the drive up to handle the friday lunch rush (I actually used them in the 80s at a citibank. You put your check in the carrier and closed the door and woosh it was sucked to the teller who would put your cash in the carrier and reverse the process.) I think the phrase is more tied to the office use though as the mail room was usually on the ground floor or the basement. You sometimes see the pneumatic tubes in some movies that are set in that era.
What an education!
The term legally drunk is used today. I bet anyone who has received a DWI or DUI can tell you it is still used. Carlin was a highly intelligent and gifted comedian. My personal favorite may he RIP (I'm sure he would find it funny, people saying RIP since he always had so much fun with words and phrases., )
Yes many are dated and go back in time like 60's and before. They were still being thrown around in the 80's but I believe started fading out tben
Legally drunk or intoxicated is still very commonly used by the police/courts, etc. If you're over the limit, you are legally drunk.
The term "Legally Drunk" is still used today. It is actually legal to have a drink and drive. If a cop were to pull you over because you were speeding and ask if you had been drinking, you can say I had one beer. The cop says I'm going to charge you with speeding, reckless driving, and driving while intoxicated if your blood alcohol level is over the legal limit of .08%. The cop pulls out a breathalyzer and tells you to breathe into it, and the reading is .07% blood alcohol level. He has to just give you the speeding ticket and say you were under the limit, so you aren't legally drunk.
The Riot Act was an 18th century british law concerning that when a mob of some sort assembled, the authorities could whip out a parchment on which the Riot Act was written, and the action of reading the Riot Act to the crowd was the warning to which if the crowd did not disperse immediately, by implication the authorities were absolved of the consequences to the next step of forcing the crowd to disperse by whatever means they justified. Hence the phrase, "Reading the Riot Act." Because of this act we got the right to assemble enshrined in the 1st amendment to the constitution here in the US.
Legally Drunk is the official cutoffpoint related to some laws. Fully licensed drivers (i.e. not Learners) are still allowed to have a small amount of alcohol in their blood and they are still considered capable of, say, safely driving a vehicle home. Once the alcohol concentration in their blood passes a specific point they are Legally Drunk, and are considered NOT safe to drive a vehicle and can get arrested.
Todays rap, Hip Hop generations don't know anything prior to the 80's. They have been conditioned to think rap and Hip Hop are all thay ever mattered. We are doomed. Music reactors are saving the day by revealing and discovering what came before.
What came before is better than the music of today.
What does that have to do with phrases going out of use? That has always happened. When is the last time you heard someone use the word groovy? Exactly it went out of fashion, that is how language has always worked. Rap has little to no affect on that other than adding new slang words which will also eventually go out of style.
48-year old dutch guy here, and I have heard of this reading the riot act-expression. :P
Actually so far ALL of these expressions.
En Engels is niet eens mijn eigen taal. ;-)
My favorite GC phrase complaint was "taking a shit" you need to watch that one.
Mark Normand is the king of Analogies his out to lunch special is very good. But George Carlin was one smart dude. Enjoyed your reaction. ✌
Your performances have been getting better and better. Should I subscribe!?
O.K. done.👍
These terms started in the 1950's some of them prior and were used until the 1990s or so. Watch older movies and you will find some of these.
a term is still used legally drunk isnt out dated
Hey Britt. I see you have added a new microphone, or at least moved it closer to you so we can see it, more importantly I can hear your sweet voice! Love Ya...as always, Peace & Love from Georgia!
you just missed the boat for these sayings and figures of speech. back in the day we used to talk to eachother. it was a different kind of vibe.
"In all states, there is a legal limit for blood alcohol concentration and driving. If you are at or above the limit, you are considered legally intoxicated. Or as George said it, legally drunk.
I'm genuinely surprised you haven't heard all of these lol, I'm 35 and I knew them all
Dandy means well dressed
8:51 dan·dy
noun
1.
a man unduly devoted to style, neatness, and fashion in dress and appearance.
"his floppy handkerchiefs and antique cufflinks gave him the look of a dandy"
In all states, the legal limit for driving is a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08. If you are at or above this limit, you are considered legally intoxicated
When you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room. 🤔
Britt you're still a kid! In the immortal words of my old man and probably everyone's parents in the history of the world, and I quote for them all and myself, "Wait'll you get to be my age!" 😂
Walking papers were the paperwork given to an inmate upon release. The papers were proof that yes, this person was indeed discharged from prison.
RIP George. The best
Legally drunk means you have met the requirement to be intoxicated to a level that is considered to be Drunk under the laws of where you live... And means that you will face punishment according to the laws of that state... It varies from state to state and sometimes in large cities have additional measures or standards... a breathalyzer is usually used to test the level...
Back in the day, you had to slice your own bread. So suddenly being able to buy it already sliced was a pretty good deal. 100 years ago.
It's rare that I don't feel like the oldest in the room and it's been that way as long as I can remember. I was born old. Had things figured out. The same way that George knew how to live. You've got to have fun and be silly. Being serious and 'mature' is no way to live.
Check out George's "Modern Man" #bars 🤙
Please watch his airport/ airplane bits
Hopefully the longer Flying [Live from NYC '92] version. 🤞
@@teemupakarinen8287 YES, because some of the videos for the airport/flying have been cut and you don't hear the ENTIRE ROUTINE, which is REALLY FUNNY!!
When George says that he was fine and dandy at the same time, he means his first heart attack.
You need to watch Sam Kinison - He was one of the greats.
Another saying that a lot of people knows what it means or refers to but, doesn't make sense is: Over the moon. Walking on air. It sucks. In the bag (sounds like you're robbing someone). Under your skin.
Some of these I haven't heard in passing, but like you certainly heard them in older TV shows or movies or read them in books. What got me is, really, what IS the Riot Act? Is this something passed by Congress? I'm gonna look into this now
The clear phone was amazing 😂
The Riot Act was a truly bizarre peccadillo of 1700s-Victorian England, in which the police were allowed to use lethal force but only after reading the act aloud so people had time to disperse.
Sliced bread is great because the edges are soft so they don't cut in to your gums when you eat a sandwich. It's awkward eating a sandwich with hard crust.
