I think it's the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately.
George Carlin (1937 - 2008)
I was at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival in 2001, at the end of a great week meeting 100's of comedians, we had a big banquet diner. They gave awards to the best comedians of the week. I get up to get a drink and onto the stage strides George Carlin. The room with 500 comedians EXPLODES!
MR. GEOGRE CARLIN tells us the story about how he had gotten banned for a while, for saying the word "shit". He paused and said, "But look at me now motherfuckers...., look at me now!"
He walks off the stage towards me and I get a chance to look him in the eyes and shake his hand. He didn't say shit, I didn't say shit, cause I figured, " If the pope says nothing to you, you can't say shit to the pope." Plus he was in between shows and who the fuck would I be to slow down the MASTER!

There's no present. There's only the immediate future and the recent past.

If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
