George Carlin - Euphemisms
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ธ.ค. 2012
- In the age when torture has become "enhanced interrogation techniques"; when the rich are "job creators"; when murdered children are "collateral damage"; it is good to remember these brilliant words from the late, great, George Carlin.
It is also good to remember that the phrase "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder" has now been officially changed in American English to "PTSD", a totally lifeless non-threatening acronym, totally devoid of even pity and with an almost whiny feel to it. - ตลก

It's a shame that this man expired.
+Ben Dover but did you see his last stand up? It was a great terminal episode.
Gyozomroka Haha yes, I did.
+Ben Dover Enough of these euphemisms, he died
+Rabidkiwi13 That's the joke, silly.
+It's me - He passed away when he was 71 years young ... ☺ ♣
This show was done about twenty-five years ago. These words that he jokes about, this is the norm for us and now even worse. Dude was a freaking prophet.
+Cris Mike Most of the ones he said in the first 5 minute aren't really accurate (other than ptsd which also has changed because we understand it better). While I'm a fan of his this one isn't really all that accurate.
+Anton Raymond dude you are wrong
+Anton Raymond "we understand it better" you are a sheep. You are just the type of drone he couldn't stand.
Eric Birch
I suppose it would depend on where you live but I can tell you for sure nobody where I live calls toilet paper "bathroom tissue" nor sneakers running shoes etc.
+Cris Mike Norm for us? No, just no...
George Carlin was not a comedian , he was an educator with a great sense of humor.
Ilyes Daâa
What’s crazy about your comment is that’s the definition of a comedian.
He was a philosopher.
He was a prophet.
Ilyes Daâa I couldn’t agree more. A philosopher that our dumbasses needed. RIP you fantastic human. We still need you, buddy.
These one of these comments on every video about him
I remember the day he died, I heard about it over the radio while driving to work. The dj said, "George Carlin passed away..." I called the station and the phone rang for 5-6 minutes, he was on air so I understand. When the dj finally answered I said, "George Carlin hated euphemisms. He has not 'passed away', he's not 'pushing up daisies', he hasn't 'gone to the great beyond', he is dead. Straight up, he is dead."
Thank you for that, Korey!
Holy shit yea I remember u
You
@Jesus Hong but I heard him on the radio
What'd the host say?
He didn't die. He expired.
In a way, saying someone has been "neutralized" as opposed to "killed" is almost more sinister.
DrivenByDiamond It is more sinister now because of its usage during the Vietnam War era. That was the word military and political leaders used back then. Because of their use, and the history of that war, the phrase has become sinister. There are now new euphemisms (like "pre-emptive strike" or "right to defend" which are used in direct contradiction to their actual meaning.)
Or how about calling a soldier who gets killed a "casualty" while the soldier who has found a convenient way to goof off and avoid being a casualty by leading a casual life is called a "goldbrick." ☺
***** So true.
How bout slaughtered let's say "the target has been slaughtered"
Ben Saslow I would approve of that.
These days torture is called "enhanced interrogation" by the criminals that perform it.
Fucking ignorant trash. Pay attention to the news. It's called One Direction Tour 2015
mer meh Oh my God haha
That's actually a really good point to bring up.
Jose Interiano That point is made in the description of the video. It says:In the age when torture has become "enhanced interrogation techniques"; when the rich are "job creators"; when murdered children are "collateral damage"; it is good to remember these brilliant words from George Carlin
mer meh
unless he is referring to the criminals in our government.
"I'll bet you if we'd had still been calling it shellshock, some of those Vietnam veterans might've gotten the attention they needed at the time."
*MIC DROP*
John Henderson i don’t really get this because someone with a diagnosed disorder would get much more effective treatment than someone labeled “freaked out” or crazy
💯
@@abby361 this is a totally different matter. Shell shock is a very specific condition. Crazy is not
THAT was a great line!
@@abby361 true, but what he was pointing out is that the condition's name has been changed so many times that society has never taken it seriously because no one knows what PTSD (or shell shock) is anymore. It changes with the times, and no awareness is raised for it and in the end, no one cares. And if the name is changed again, there's no doubt people will be confused and not know what signs to look for with PTSD, leading them to assume they're 'crazy' or worse, apply another entirely unrelated condition like 'schizophrenia'.
They're not loot boxes, they're surprise mechanics.
OMG HAHA awesome!!
Even "loot boxes" is a euphemism for "illegal gambling".
cough DOWNLOADABLE CONTENTS cough
Nice one!
Seriously, how could he remember all that shit. It's amazing enough he came up with all that, moreso that he could recite it without skipping a beat with perfectly delivery.
Xervello I doubt he remembered it all word for word, I'm guessing he's doing it all extemporaniously, which was probably also helped by the truth of his words..... its easier to recite the truth than invent a lie.... Hence the low amount of conservative comedians in the world.
Of course he rememberd it...word by word. Probably been reading the script 500 times or so before he goes on the stage.
LOLLYPOPPE Does he seem like the kind of guy who needs to remember a script in order to tell you about all this?
No, because this is a part if the act. His humour only worked because of the kind of authority he was on stage. His early comedy was not like this at all. You have to be pretty awesome on the stage to make the audience laugh by telling them how stupid they are. Only stuttering on one single word could ruin that image, so that is why I think every single sound he made on stage was planned 100%
You're not the only one who wondered that. Bill Maher also asked that question shortly after his death on a radio show. Of course he probably didn't remember his scripts word for word but when something means that much to you, when you're passionate about it, when it's an original thought, I think you can do what he does. Plus he's also been in the show business for almost his entire life. I can recite my favorite parts from his shows for the same reason.
Can you even begin to IMAGINE what George would have to say TODAY ?
+Lioseia Nishina i highly doubt that since george carlin was not a racist.
Since 2008 there has been enough BS going on for Carlin to make a new HBO special every year.
+Lioseia Nishina george is wouldnt care about elections bc he thinks all politicians are bullshit artists and that best bullshiter wins like when he did about bill clinton.
@anrtpga ^.^ Your deductive reasoning skills are so low its hard to find them anything other than impressive. I'm not inherently sure where you get racist from my statement. given that Orangutans are primates also known as "apes." so take your PC SJW wannabeness an go whine to someone else.
You're a writer, first person on youtube(and I mean this sincerely, not being sarcastic) I've seen, who uses a double space after each period. Much respect for you, have a nice day. There is hope after all.
_"The one euphemism I keep resisting is when they look at an old guy and they'll say 'look at him Dan, he's 90 years young'. Imagine the fear of aging that reveals."_
and you can argue that they're just trying to say the guy is young at heart, but at the same time I would hope you would be young at heart, otherwise you're just old
He says no-one wants to get old, but personally I prefer that to the alternative
I've always hated that expression too, ditto young at heart.
@@felixftw4702 but it inadvertently creates the opposite effect: if someone tells someone else your age and they suddenly say young instead of old you now know you're old enough to no longer be considered young
Getting older could become annually challenged.
Great one
Just like fat is "size challenged"
Or mentally challenged:)
And being short can be referred to as "vertically-challenged". And NEVER use the word "midget"!
Alright I read that as anally challenged for some reason ... but I guess that works too haha. That's why they made -adult diapers- incontinence pads.
"he's minimally exceptional"
"oh thank gawd for that!"
gets me every time.
Yes. I am a little bit exceptional. I was afraid that I was not at all exceptional.
In my younger years, I used to hear mentally challenged is the euphemism for stupid.
Carlin would be having a field day right now.
RIP George. We still miss you.
rvnender man i have news for you
RN J shit got worse
RN J besides trump
He would!!!
At least he's not dead
George carlin wasnt a comedian
He was an instructive humor distributions therapist
comdedian is an euphemism for clown
@@toniokettner4821 nail it , true
He'd love "influencers"
You mean "assholes"?
Ugh
@@cqmorrell I don't like euphemisms but I think "attention whores" is a good one for them.
This guy was simply a genius and a master of his craft.
You should have seen him in bed🍆 my mom couldn't walk for weeks. Then I found out she was dead.
I think he aged like a fine wine... his material just got better over the years.
yes he was!
What was great about Carlin was that he wasn't afraid to ridicule both liberals and conservatives about their agendas and jargon. Can you imagine what he would be doing today if he were still alive with the headlines we have? No one today is George Carlin. No balls. He wasn't always right, I didn't always agree with him -- but he came close.
Ehhhhhhhhhhh, your fence-sitting bullshit is fence-sitting bullshit. Carlin was no centrist, even Stevie Wonder could see he was far-left.
Indy Revoly if i understand george c he was anti authority pro explicit language and a deep thinker. A philosopher who used humour to get our attention. then once we were listening. Told us the truth with no sugar coating and was still funny
Bullshit... You go and start a business, and post a sign that says, "We welcome crippled people".... The ACLU would be all over your ass....
Indy Revoly Ya, I would definitely agree that he was extremely liberal. But he was a bit of a traditional-libertarian, in that he agreed with much of the constitution and it’s purpose. Like, limiting the power and control of the government. He definitely did not trust the government and worried that it would become increasingly tyrannical. Which is what the constitution was supposed to prevent. And boy, was he right.
I agree with his views on pretty much everything, and I would consider myself somewhere between a progressive and a traditional libertarian.
I don't remember anything in his comedy that would offend liberals. Almost all of his political jokes seem to be very leftish.
Maybe I'm forgetting something though.
This man is a timeless legend.
Dude was a genius. I like how he doesn't overtly "slam" anybody on any political aisle, he just finds the humor in everything. "We choose to bullshit ourselves."
i have a negative cashflow position
Sotonation member#3066 thou shall not simp a.k.a broke
No,you’re broke. 😂😂😂
Fucking Broke !
haahaaahaaaaaaaaii
I'm not broke, I'm financially embarrassed.
George Carlin is dead. honest and straightforward
He died from Cardiovascular Irregularities
Kolynn Cook passed away*
Don'tScrollBehindYou No he is dead.
HuurDen No, he has left us.
HuurDen And is screaming up at us from Hell
Carlin would have a field day with the culture that we live in now...
RIP George
What «field day» actually means?
A whole field full
He’d want to die again!
@@vmzheyko it means that he would have a lot to offer on the subject
He would’ve been censored and cancelled. The lefties would say, he used to be so good, but now that dude’s an asshole.
"You don't have a negative cash-flow position.; You're fuckin' broke!...".
--George Carlin.
Technically you can have a positive cash flow position and still be broke
Mr.Carlin instilled a lot of knowledge in me. He could make a seven, four hour specials with all the shit that's happened since his death. it's almost like people got stupider when he died.
+Ken Kaneki "stupider" Yeah, people have gotten even more stupid, like you.
Jerry Chaz EXACTLY!
He is dead? Good riddance!! anather fascist gone !!
+Michelle Wayne Fascist? You're funny.
Did you really mean to suggest that you are glad that George Carlin is now dead?
I hope not.
Mr. Carlin was actually explaining the origin of 'Political Correctness'.
It's much older than that.
@@Hirnlego999 Please elaborate. I want to learn more. Seriously.
@@George19712 Carlin's own 7 dirty words became a courtcase, something of which Carlin was proud of. He was a fan of Lenny Bruce who faced censorship too..
What I mean to say that so called PC movements are anything but new, the history is long and vast and has gone into just about every direction possible.
You'd have to read history books to get a take on that really.
@@Hirnlego999 I agree, but today's SJW PC ideology has more power then ever.
@D Not true. As Pinker has pointed out a lot of things are better now than ever before. It's not because of SJWs, and a lot of it is no more than virtue signaling from corporations so it's not even real.
The major push backs since 9/11 does not come from the SJWs either, it's done in the name of security by various different groups of folks, essentially in Europe for instance this comes from the rightwing who push for more nationalism and all that it entails, especially easy to notice in Hungary and Poland.
He is not getting bald, his hair lines are receding
He is not balding, his Top is down.
1. It was *Child Rape*
2. Then it became *"Child Sexual Assault"*
3. Now its *"Child Molestation"*
How about...he is follically challenged?
His hair is on tactical retreat.
It used to be that when a person's mind was changed so that he would think of committing misdeeds, he was "brainwashed." Now, he's "radicalized."
More proof that there was nobody like George. This guy was an A-plus, period!
***** I remember Mort from his San Fran. days but he was more into the absurdity of politics. There have been so many great stand-ups and I hate to mention some and leave out others. That said, these two comedic geniuses were just so bloody articulate and enjoyable.
Johnny Collini I think you mean, he was exceptionally humorous.
jdawg zerooneone No, that's not what I meant.
Johnny Collini GREATEST STAND- UP COMIC EVER!!!
There's no such thing as jail, you go to the correctional facility.
Unless you're in Wisconsin. There jails are called public safety centers
@@LuckyBaldwin777 "Public safety centers... Sounds like something soft.
In my state jail comes before a correctional facility
Even penitentiary is a rewording of jail.
The root word of that is penance, meaning you went to the penitentiary to do penance for your crimes.
How I it a "correctional facility" if you're getting beaten up & raped by some prison guys?! 🤔
This man is a one in a lifetime gift to humanity ❤
He was a genius. I miss him. Just imagine what hed be talking about now!!!
The US Air-Force once concluded that a plane crash was due to "vehicle flight path intersecting with local terrain features"
Greg Gallacci Wow, that's a nice one.
In the early 1980's, the US Army began 'cleaning' their technical manuals.
Seems that established electronics terms like "master/slave", "push-pull" and "daisy-chain" were causing too much snickering while working on advanced avionics.
Glad I got out!
Are you serious? XD
Greg Gallacci I guess saying that `the plane crashed into the ground or some trees' was just too much for them ? It also doesn't sound much different when the U.S. Army changed `search and destroy' to `sweep and clear'.
... and lies became alternative facts :D
Factual aversions
The media became the enemy of the people.
I thought that was "fake news".
No one uses alternative facts the only one's that use that word ironically is the lying liberal media and Democrats 😂
And torture became "excessive interrogation"
This is probably one of the most educational TED Talks I ever watched. George was funny, brilliant, and stayed true to his beliefs. It’s totally worse in today’s generation because people are triggered by the littlest of things. Today’s politicians and average humans are even more frightened by the truth.
I'm here in 2024....this still is ALL relevant....RIP GEORGE CARLIN
Sure we have Louis CK who is similar to George, but there's no one that will ever be as talented and critical as George. It's a shame that he had to "pass away" before I could see any of his live shows.
I'm interested to see how CK's comedy will develop in the next few years
+Stephen Zogas he, like Carlin, got less and less PC.
***** Yeah. They're both funny to me but Carlin's content is on another level.
I doubt carlin talked about him masturbting. ck does it every show.
+Gonchy D bill hicks
Imagine if George Carlin was brought back from the grave and he was brought up to speed on the past 8 years - he'd be horrified.
But at least he will have a lot of material.
He'd be far more horrified with what's coming next.
Econman I think George Carlin would instead just simply shake his head while chuckling slightly and then saying, "I fucking knew it."
Probably right in fact.
What I would like to know is...what would Hunter S. Thompson say? Because BOY would Doctor Duke have a LOT of opinion.
Me: “i got in a car crash.”
Doctor: “oh you got in a motor vehicle accident?”
Me: “...yeah...”
"We have no more stupid people anymore, everyone has a learning disorder" still my favourite
Psychologist have the term "learning disorder" because there's a ton kind of "stupid" and there's a lot of "different" method to teach them. There are students that are called "stupid" because the can't tell the difference between the letter "B" and "D," Or "6" and "9", so we developed the term "dyslexia". With right teaching method, these "stupid" dyslexic students can be "smart". Those "stupid" students is different with the "stupid" students that cannot focus for more than 5 minutes.
But then again, common people will always find another "inoffensive" term like "not the brightest child in the class"
@@derrilazkia1002 the correct word is "retarded"
In my younger years, I hear mentally challenged is the euphemism for stupid.
Fucking genius man! This guy is one of my heroes, not only did he entertained but also educated people in the process, most of them didn't even know it. R.I.P George Carlin, you are an old time GREAT!
Well said. Basically what I was thinking myself...
rayochapin He Was The Guy Who Made Thomas The Tank Engine Show In The 1980's.
He is by far my favorite comedian. Like you said, he educates people along with entertaining them. He didn't need ventriloquist puppets or lame made-up stories to be a comedian. I love how the older he got, the angrier he got in his stand-up. He was so smart, ruthless, had no boundaries, and overall gave no shits about anything he said or did. The harsh honesty before Trey Parker and Matt Stone, but with censoring on a specific channel.

Trash cans became *wastebaskets*

Cool man whatever
Could you imagine the stroke he'd have if he found out about "social distancing" and "self isolation"?
This guy's stand up is on another level. Deep yet hilarious. We likely won't see another one in this generation.
RIP to one of the greatest : George Carlin
We hereby declare him to be "Living Impaired".
Wow, he would really hate "RIP".
He didn't die...like he said "I'll pass away!!". 😉

Brilliant. Carlin was a superb observer of life - funny and thought-provoking.
John Craske he was smart for sure, but some of the examples he gave aren't really realistic. SOME. Still love him, wish he was here so I could see him live though.
@@MasterJimJim oh please tell us more. You sound like a real genius.
@@ryantogo8359 My comment was 4 years ago and you reply with some retarded reddit type response looking for a reaction. You failed at life lol theres my reaction.
Being a Veteran I hate hearing "thank you for your service" What a crock of garbage that is. I never wanted to join the Army in the 1st place. I was drafted
I'm not English native speaker and wasn't in army, never. But this sounds horrible, sorry, like someone would say to waiter in the restaurant
drafted, a nicer way of saying you're taking someone's freedom away and forcing them to work for fear of an extreme punishment if they refuse. aka SLAVERY!
Tell that to my dad. He was drafted too, didn't want to go, hated it, tried to get out of it, claims it ruined his life, he never fought, and only worked in a warehouse state side, but now he acts like he's some damaged Vietnam war hero who needs everyone to kiss his ass on Veterans Day, Memorial Day, and Independence Day.
In 2021, homeless people have become "the unhoused."
Another prediction of his that more or less was fulfilled.
He expected the term "houselessness" to be born one day.
WHY S THIS SO RELEVANT NOW
Because George was ahead of the times all the time
Because it's covering the language of propaganda, bogus advertising, and the techniques of silver tongued con-artists.
Not only was George a comedian - he was a philosopher.
This is why Carlin is at the top of the profession and is held in awe by his peers. He makes a social comment while making you think and then makes you laugh. The Holy Grail of a comedian.
It's not loot boxes its surprise mechanics - EA
I study psychology and see this in practice all the time. It's like children with oppositional defiance and conduct disorder. 'callous-unemotional' children are now defined as 'children with limited prosocial emotions'.
Assholes
This man took professionalism in a completely superior level. He made lengthy intellectual material, researched, studied and memorised thoroughly. He delivered flawlessly with proper punches where it was meant to be. I miss him profoundly
Yesterday I was in a class, we were talking about handicap. A girl said "handicaped children" and another one commented on that point saying she felt shoked she used "handicaped". This segment imediatly comes to my mind.
Handicaped became "person in situation of handicap".
As if changing a label could change a life. From 4 to 11 syllabels. Amazing.
People of color = good
Colored people = racist
The world is stupid
George Carlin will forever be one of the greatest minds of our time. A tremendous phillosopher and truth speaker.
The War Department is now called The Department of Defense and civilian deaths are called collateral damage.
or "unfortunate incidents"
people need to just stick to the names the smart people made up.
This guy speaks the truth and makes it hilarious
+Nathaniel Hillbilly I’d be wary with the word Truth. Especially while applying it as a generalization to a celebrity… People might think you’re part of a personality cult… Well, which is exactly what most Carlin fans are

Well, many of the words he talks about being replaced are also replaced with their definition. Besides, the Swedish word for rape, våldtäkt, basically translates to "taking someone by force/violence", it doesn't need to be changed
