As most of you probably know by now, the American Comic legend George Carlin passed away last night from an apparent heart attack. Carlin, who was 71 years old, just went too young. George will be remembered for his often taboo comic routines as well as his famous seven words he’d use, that often were controversial. The 7 words were as follows: sh*t, p*ss, fu*k, cu*t, co*ksucker, motherf****r and ti*s. He routinely used these words on his TV shows despite being seen as taboo my a large number of viewers.
Over a career which spanned 50 years, George Carlin had released 22 solo albums and three bestselling books. He was even thrown out of Vegas 2 times because of his famous 7 words he’d use. Carlin was popular among college students especially. Below is a mug shot from Carlin’s infamous 1972 arrest for public indecency in Milwaukee Wisconsin.:
