George at his very best. Laughed out loud through most of it.

Didn’t Like It

  • Rated 2 stars

Borrowed from the library & listened on my iPod in the car.
I remember REALLY liking George Carlin when I was a teenager . . . I guess maybe I've grown up a lot since then, and apparently he hasn't. I found it generally juvenile and in some places - offensive. Overall, not very funny.

    Comedy on every page, George Carlin my all time favourite comedian tells his funny stories on this book just like he did on stage before he died.the book contains jokes, notions, doubts, opinions, questions, thoughts, beliefs, assertions, assumptions, and disturbing references. It also contains a large portion of nonsense, satire, mockery and sarcasm.I have read a bit over 100 pages and so far i have really enjoyed it. The reason i find this book easy to read is because it does not take very long to read a section and it doesn't have a tough plot to follow. I am finally done with this book now and to be honest i really enjoyed it. this is a page turner for me, i was able to read a little bit of it everyday since the sections are short and funny. By far the part i enjoyed the most about this book was his idea of how the first human sacrifice went. It is a real shame that George Carlin had to die a couple of years ago. The world needs more people like him to point out the mistakes that people make. And to bring smiles to everyones faces. I need to find more books like this with little to no plot otherwise i get distracted and bored

    George Carlin doing his thing. Some of this stuff is pretty funny, most of this book is his take on wordplay, cliches and common expressions. I prefer the religion/politics stuff. A guy getting really angry about grammar seems a bit much sometimes.

    Got as a present from a great gal who knew I was and am a huge George Carlin fan. I love his insights and slants on the world at large.
