You know, I think I'm getting old, because such things really aren't that big of a deal to me. I mean the major problem is that people simply don't communicate, bunk whether a handful of words are used properly, how about just using words period. It's a pet peeve I have at work. People act like they're going to get burnt at the stake if they talk to other people.

this is the attitude of most folks

and they are so out of it that they

can't see it as bein the prollum...

it really ain't about 'the words'

it's more about the short attention

span of the people who have now

learned to accept bein swayed because

they have accepted bein damaged through

language... language is the precursor to

intellect and lack of unnastandin language

breeds ig'nance...

Transcript of George Carlin: A Modern Philosopher

George Carlin: A "Modern Philosopher"
By Lorna Bo
"If it’s true that our species is alone in the universe, then I’d have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little."

"Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that."

"Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist."

"Just when I discovered the meaning of life, they changed it."
"The IQ and the life expectancy of the average American recently passed each other in opposite directions."

Thanks for watching!
I think it’s the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately.

"The planet is fine. The people are f*cked."

Comedy, at its best, challenges our ways of thinking. George Denis Patrick Carlin was an American comedian, writer, social critic and actor who did exactly that.

There's a difference between being half-azzed and not giving a damn, basically sloping something at people (which I agree happens a lot); and being tediously sticklerish just to nitpick at something for the sake of nitpicking. This particular thing just came off to me as being overly tedious and nitpicky. Critizing people because they're not using the proper Oxford/Webster sanctioned standard of speaking is just annoying to be annoying not communicating. You are a perfect example. You say some damned common sense things without all the proper king's english, you communicate an idea quite well.

i don't care how people talk either...

i hera people who have extremely large

vocabularies that doesn't stop their bein

gulible (which is really what the vid is about)

usin words with the thought that that's what

the word means is ig'nant. usin it in a manner

because it's accepted by the masses is the state

of western culture and the media is shapin the

culture (because that's who people trust)

i speak ig'nantly by design. folks who speak in

the manner that i do can't afford ig'nance because

it's easily detected (and the reason folks have

the idea that folks that speak thusly lack a

vocabulary)...
