RIP George Carlin
Edgy comic George Carlin dies at 71 - Yahoo! News

^It would be appreciated.

Ah, Carlin... Comedic mastermind, and one of the best stand-ups around. As a fan of all things stand-up, I find this a sad thing indeed; RIP, G.C.

My dad always watches some of his stand-up on Youtube. I thought he was really funny from what I saw. I remember laughing a lot.

I am additionally saddened due to him being the voice of the narrator in most of the old Thomas the Tank Engine shows.

Those where, like, my child-hood man. R.I.P George, you loveable cynic.
