He was intelligently using phraseology to describe who he is, a master of wit-play

[UNCHARTEDuniverse]

How did he memorize and recite that so quickly?

George Carlin is a genius.

[LarsWS]

It was just something he always knew how to do.

There's an interview here on youtube, where he talks about that skill specifically.

'Rude dude....Real deal'....indeed, he really was one of the greats.

[TheeAltster]

This is poetry.

George Carlin isn't really a genius, else what room would that leave for the Greek philosophers and Leonardo da Vinci, among others? Carlin is simply a human using his fucking brain. Unfortunately, most people don't.

But, this is changing. Technology is happening faster than everyone realizes. A lot faster. Kurzweil predicts the first computer to rival human intelligence is about 2030. Singularity by 2045.

Dolphins have an IQ of, what, 75? Imagine if we granted them the ability to speak to us.

Remember his age when he did this. I think he was 69. I can't begin to say this. I honestly don't think there is a comic that was as smart as George was. Damn I miss him. Just remember a lot of the stuff he talked about came true like his American Dreams standup. His ability to study the human race and be spot on the way he seen them act. He just got better and better the older he got. I feel the government seen him as a threat and killed him. He was just that good.

I hope all of you, who enjoy this bit have seen the classic where it comes from, Pirates of Penzance :) skip to 1:00. Apparently you cant put links here, so just search youtube for moder major general and watch first video, or second.

George Carlin - the Man who understood life's biggest ironies and laughed bravely at it..Somewhere along his life..there must have been a turning point in his life to become the way he is right now. Truly a genius born out of hardships..I respect this guy man..
