I live near a park in the UK (London) and I'm constantly delighted by the amount of children who run around triumphantly bearing a stick! There's one pair of brothers who use grass to make their sticks into swords... Always gives me joy 😅
Hey, that's how revolutions get started. You gotta make a little noise. Do you think every time a monumental change happened was because people sat in the dark and played with themselves? Fuck no. People got out there and made noise.
"Professional victims" have always existed, it's just that now they can be filmed and posted on social media before being cherry picked by reactionaries in order to fuel their agenda.
Carlin wouldn't have wanted to live Forever. I just wish he lived today so he could make 1 last special about Covid and Cancel Culture and all this other shit. He'd have loads of material.
I grew up living in a New York City housing project (50's-60's). 11 buidings, 15 floors each-about 8 families per floor. Kids everywhere. Little money, plenty of play every day. Imagine "play dates" in that setting! It is a shame that children can't find their own way today.
Poe's Law Yes ,but they have been taken to the extreme in my country.There is a chap living in Birmingham who has been identified as having had an active role in the genocide in Rwanda and because he has a wife and child,it would be against his"human rights" to deport him.Thats what I meant.You knew what I meant as George did.Jim.liverpool.
I love this. In a world where children can no longer be children anymore, all children play on screens, they can't run in my kids school anymore as someone sued when a kid fell, we all have to pay insurance too just in case. No red rover, no bull dog, no tag.... No fun. This is unreal times. It's pure an utter BS. RIP Mr Carlin, you were right. I don't send my kids to camps here in Ireland, they play in the field's with a stick. It costs less too. You were a gem. Missed sorely.
Sooooo much truth, George! God forbid we just let a kid "be a kid," and enjoy their childhood without projecting our parental hopes and expectations upon them like a lifelong weight that no amount of psychotherapy could ever resolve. 😀.
I agree that all of this "everybody is a winner" thing is kind of illogical and overprotective.And here's the site to prove it.www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2011/07/how-to-land-your-kid-in-therapy/308555/
At 2:07, GC mentioned kindergarten entrance exams. Is there such a thing? At the end he talked about the word "special". If everything's special, nothing is.
I'm pleased to announce that I never had play dates except maybe in preschool. Even back then, those weren't really play dates. My mom or somebody happened to have a kid my age that I could play with in the sandbox when she was visiting her friend. The concept of a play date is strange to me. Play date?
Same here.....for me as a kid there wasn't "playdates" it was the phone suddenly ringing and the neighbor kids asking if I could come over and play. None of this scheduled nonsense......it was " Hi, can you come over? " "Lemme ask ma.................yeah I can :D " "Ok see ya :D"
@@theblackrosedaughter thats just luck, if you had kids on your street they aren't needed. if you're the only kid(or at least only kid in that age bracket) then without play dates you never get to see anyone, lol.
I heard about some school having Star Wars day (you know, on May the 4th), but they didn't allow light sabers because they are simulated weapons. Yeah, I get it about what has happened in schools. But why then allow or acknowledge "Star Wars day"? We all know what happens in that movie. Here's a clue: it has the word WAR right in the fucking title!!
Now this is wisdom. Everyone's a winner? That makes winning absolutely meaningless. If I come in 2nd, I'm the 2nd winner? No. I'm a first class loser. Let's call it what it is. A loser doesn't mean you're worthless, it means you lost at something. That's what loser means; one who loses or has lost something. No one is a loser at everything. So you're trying out for 3rd base and the manager cuts you. That means you're no good? No, it means you're no good at playing 3rd base. But there's something you *are* good at. You just have to find what it is. And for the ones who are unfortunate enough that they never find what it is, I'm sorry, but there are no guarantees with life. Which is just as well as most guarantees are bull crap, anyway.
Am with you, George! How about a kid and a rock or stone? Skipping stones on a pond or lake? Right? How about kick the can? Screw XBOX, PlayStation, and all that smartphone stuff! RIP GC Have fun with found stuff! Make stuff from other stuff!
One time I was climbing a tree in my backyard when I was 13. It was getting dark out and my folks were freaking out about it. My older brother came out and talked with me about how fucking stupid they were acting. Fuck helicopter parenting and child brainwashing.
"You just sit there with a stick and you have a little fun." George sounds REALLY out of touch here, kids don;t want to sit around with sticks, they want to play with action figures or video games.
This cracked me up ... I'm a big Carlin fan, but I'm 58 and when I went to grade school it was standard to have to "test in" to kindergardin. I went in at 4 instead of 5 and I wasn't even that smart lol . Just saying that was how they did It in 58, when my son went to school ... it was strictly about when your birthday was :) Now I guess it's switched back .... The more things change, the more they stay the same :)
George Carlin was a genius he is sorely missed. Hes the hero of all modern comedians
hes dead man
my point was hes the babe ruth of comedy,and that why all the young guys love him,and its good to go back and see his genius once in awhile
That was made clear when is said "WAS a genius he is sorely MISSED."
And his work will stay relevant until the humanity finally pushes the buttons and wipes majority of life from this planet in nuclear fire.
And Jonathan Winters.
Every person is UNIQUE, but that's light-years away from "SPECIAL". Boy, he was right about so many things...
Special kind of stupid maybe
Duly explains why so many people grow up to have abnormally large egos for very illegitimate reasons
Sound Illusions that explains trump
"You were the *last* winner" The look of utter disbelief on his face as he said that... That was genuine.
" I like to make fun of any group that takes itself a little bit too seriously.
+Jane Doe George Carlin is where they got the idea for internet
"when does a kid ever get to sit in a yard with a stick anymore?" LMAOOO
+Vince Castro The poor fuck he can barely find his dick!

"leadership camp? isnt that where hitler went?" lmao xD
Nah he went to Mein Kampf. :0)
And now these kids are going to university and being professional victims
Hey, that's how revolutions get started. You gotta make a little noise.
Do you think every time a monumental change happened was because people sat in the dark and played with themselves? Fuck no. People got out there and made noise.
George Carlin would've hated idiots like you.
"Professional victims" have always existed, it's just that now they can be filmed and posted on social media before being cherry picked by reactionaries in order to fuel their agenda.
"When does a kid ever get to sit in the yard with a stick anymore?... you know just sit there with a fucking stick"
This made me laugh so much
I wish he could have lived forever.............
Yes!!!
Carlin wouldn't have wanted to live Forever. I just wish he lived today so he could make 1 last special about Covid and Cancel Culture and all this other shit. He'd have loads of material.
If you're never a loser, how are you going to develop the motivation to strive to be better?
I agree with you 100%!
because a winner is a winner, what's better than a winner? a loser? nah
Losing and being a loser are two different things. The first makes you wanna try to win, the other not so much
Whatever dimension George is in now, I hope that's the one I wind up in. Fan since the '70s, fan forever.
George Carlin. The master of comic truth.
I miss this guy so much.....imagine the Trump jokes that would've been.
I laugh just imagine the possibilities
+Mauricio Beltre and hilllary clinton " the fat ass cow "
+don haddenham Did she win?is she the president of the democrats?
+Dark Alan WTF ooo trump supporter ok sorry the self esteem video has a different URL
+Mauricio Beltre Imagine if he ran for president!
Too real. I absolutely love this bit, rip the legend.

What a visionary.All these things have now come to fruition with health and safety and human rights and shite like that.
+curleyteeth human rights have like, been a thing for a while....

curleyteeth k
Funny as fuck, R.I.P. George!
Perfection And so true it's sickening
gary greenstein one might say it is stickening
ONE may say that. George carlin would never say that. But I am sure someone would.
All it takes to be on the honor roll these days is to have a body temperature somewhere in the 90s.
He would have 5 specials worth of material if he was still around. Miss this old bastard
"Do today's kids even know what a stick is?"
Yeah, USB sticks.
Sir Caco D. Mon Yep
Oof. Too true
@Sir_Caco weed sticks
Brilliant, I keep coming back to this.
yeah me too
I love this.

What a brain this man had! At this writing 8 people don't...
I love how he got older and older, he just gave less and less fucks #MissGeorgeCarlin
Bravo George!!! No One Can Ever replace His Truths & Candidity Of Being Right On!!! RIP Thank Goodness for the Uncensoredness On the Tube here...
"The poor little FUCK" something about the way he said it like damm 2:14
"you look at the hole... and you look at the stick... and you have a little fun"
😂
RIP G carlin , u were the one the only one
Hisham Akwan amen
This man was the master of truth and wit.
Sooooo much truth, George! God forbid we just let a kid "be a kid," and enjoy their childhood without projecting our parental hopes and expectations upon them like a lifelong weight that no amount of psychotherapy could ever resolve. 😀.
"Do today's kids even know what a stick is?" Lmfao
just sit in a yard with a fucking stick. GENIUS
God please give us back George Carlin and I'll give you 1/2 of my soul. I think you'll get a lot more volunteers than me.
please god give us George carlin and bill hicks back and I promise to be a better person.
I second that!
I would offer up Justin Bieber in exchange for both or 1, but I think even god has his limits on forgiveness ....
Justin Bieber, all magcon boys, and these new fucbois jacob sartorious and his friends.
We will give Hillary Clinton and Obama if we can have George back. Not that they're worth anything.
Heck! I'd be ready to give all of the Wall street and other such banker pricks. And I think George might like that too :)
In Canada they removed the score for soccer
They later removed the ball too.

He was just the best. Wish he was still around to rip all politicians in his special comedy stand up
"You lost" is not the same as "you're a loser."
GeddyMX Of course! No matter where you go, there you are. You didn't need a mirror to see that.
I got lost in the woods as a child. It was fucking scary. I loved it!
I’ve heard of this man before but never have seen his work.
Well, I just learned I’m 25 going on 60 something. I’ve had the exact same thoughts.
When I was a kid I used to burn sticks. What a childhood that was LOL.
In all truths,, exists Humor
In all humor exists truths.
It's always up to the audience to appreciate it for what it is.
my daughter has a collection of sticks she has gotten during our walks home from school. I think I did ok thanks George!
Gee, he was here a moment ago...
Man' s thinking comedian .
At 2:07, GC mentioned kindergarten entrance exams. Is there such a thing? At the end he talked about the word "special". If everything's special, nothing is.
"the poor little fuck..." 😆😂🤣
Genius. Miss him! legend!
This man was ahead of his time
This man is still ahead of his time
"YOU LOST,YOU'RE A LOSER BOBBY!!" Lol :P
George Carlin was a comedian AND a philosopher...
He spoke the Truth in a funny very way, Brilliant.
I was born in 1944 and played with a lot of sticks on the lots of Brooklyn.
Karen Zandstra lmfao
ohhhh, for sure. I have the same kind of personality & humor, I'm a
New Yorker too. just a tad more subtle... now.

He was too cool for the room !!!
42 people who didn't like this, missed out on sitting around with a stick when they were children.
Barely found george. Hes amazing.
back in the 60's my friends and i ate paint chips all summer
Come back George we need ya
LMAO he is so spot on...i feel like i grew up with this fucker in NY lmfao
Class act.
RIP the Master!
RIP wish he was still around he would be having a field day with todays leftist Politics
He is absolutely right and i dont even have kids.
We lost ballgames.
We got better.

yeah imagine ... good bye fuken standing around
I'm training to become a therapist for kids and teens,and i plan to take this philosophy!
every thing is so true
Am with you, George! How about a kid and a rock or stone? Skipping stones on a pond or lake? Right? How about kick the can? Screw XBOX, PlayStation, and all that smartphone stuff!
RIP GC
Have fun with found stuff! Make stuff from other stuff!
"The poor little fuck." Lmao
Yeah, a selfie stick....
Laura Kibben Ahaha true XD

"The poor little fuck" I died
"Leadership Camp" oh fuck yes.....

A George Carlin camp would be nice.
Sorely needed now. 🤕
How Social justice warriors were raised
he's right about this shit.

Razor sharp, always was
