RIP George Carlin

Comedic legend George Carlin died this weekend. In addition to being damn funny, his "seven dirty words" was actually a centerpiece in the Supreme Court decision FCC vs. Pacifica which, yes, did actually find that you CAN'T say that on the radio.

In honor of Mr. Carlin, here is his seven dirty words from 1978.



It's kind of funny that now several of the 7 are now ok to say on tv, especially on cable. For a good example look at the "Hits the Fan" episode of South Park which featured 162 uncensored use of shit.
