What's this?

Yeah, Carlin had a good bit on weather reports

how they added new words to make them sound better and more significant. 'Rain Event' (vs Rain) or 'Tornadic Activity'

If only George Carlin or Sam Kinison were alive today. -- PhotoHokieNC 10/16/2020 11:44AM

George Carlin was so funny, when I saw hi in Richmond years ago-> -- HOKIERIT 10/16/2020 8:02PM

Watch George Carlin's bit on "Immunity." It was done about 10 years ago, -- BayHokie 10/16/2020 4:18PM

Give me Patrice O’Neal trashing this on the old O&A ** -- VTDante 10/16/2020 4:10PM

Patrice would be my #2 behind Carlin for commentary on today. ** -- vthokieq 10/16/2020 4:22PM

Been watching a bunch of Jimmy Carr clips of YouTube lately. 👍🏻👍🏻 ** -- B777Fr8Dog 10/16/2020 12:55PM

Check out Kevin Bridges - good bits and great accent ** -- HokieMacDaddy 10/16/2020 2:57PM

Bill Burr is essentially a current George Carlin -- lchoro 10/16/2020 12:53PM

Eh...look...I love Burr and think he's a brilliant comedian... -- vthokieq 10/16/2020 12:55PM

Seinfeld is another -- lchoro 10/16/2020 1:50PM

Yeah...A LOT of comedians are observational. -- vthokieq 10/16/2020 1:56PM

He is similar to Carlin in that he pokes fun at attitudes of people -- lchoro 10/16/2020 4:03PM

Enlighten yourself & watch his "Save the Planet" monologue (link) -- LaneRat 10/16/2020 12:38PM

Matthew Berry (FFB analyst) posted this about George Carlin (link) -- RhinoVT 10/16/2020 11:54AM

When my friends and I discovered Carlin in the 7th grade -- GobblerCE 10/16/2020 4:24PM

Excellent read! ** -- coshokie 10/16/2020 1:20PM

Got to see Carlin at the Warner Theatre in D.C. -- HokieKip 10/16/2020 1:14PM

Saw him in Vegas once, very good show ** -- SteveInBaltimore 10/16/2020 1:42PM

Prolly the best thing you've ever posted ;) -- HokieMacDaddy 10/16/2020 12:21PM

Carlin would have a field day with the current environment. ** -- vthokieq 10/16/2020 12:32PM

I'd love to see his Twitter account. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 10/16/2020 12:47PM

It would probably be shut down. -- MP4VT2004 10/16/2020 12:53PM

By the wrong people...you mean pretty much everyone. ;-) ** -- vthokieq 10/16/2020 12:56PM

Thank you for that, Rhino. Marvelous piece. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 10/16/2020 12:06PM

They'd probably be more accurate with a show called "Weather Yesterday" ** -- ArdbegHokie 10/16/2020 11:50AM
