George Carlin - I Gave Up On My Species - George's GENUINE, eloquent perspective

George's comedy specials helped raise me from a young age when no one else was doing any raising. I consider him to be one of the greatest minds, social commentators, and philosophers of the 20th century, and I've yet to recognize a contemporary near his level. I'll always be grateful to have had the honor to see him twice before he died.

I see a lot of people enjoy his brilliant bits, but with the way the world is and where its going, imho in the name of enthusiastic greed, I personally find a lot of peace, and a lot less depression when I choose to aspire to George's genuine divorce and detachment from "caring about the outcome."

Enjoy the freakshow, folks!

Bonus: I've seen so many comments in his bit videos wishing for George's perspective on smartphones, well this was near his end (2008), smartphones were just arriving, and his opening words briefly address in passing what he thought about the latest tech obsession.
