This, of course, is one of the “seven words[*] you can’t say on TV, made famous by one of my favorite comedians, George Carlin, who, sadly, died yesterday (the list is now over 2,400).
Carlin was one of the first “grown-up” stand-up comic acts I remember seeing as a kid in middle school, and I was hooked from there. I was quickly hooked on his unique brand of irreverent, dark humor. I’ve always been a stand-up comedy junkie, and there never has been, or will be, another one like George Carlin.
*The original list, of course, being: “shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits.” No such rules on this blog, it seems.
