“much more coherent and articulate when I have a fuckin’ keyboar
Or so George Carlin says in this Salon.com A&E interview, among other things including:
“When my little girl was growing up, we cursed around our house and she heard me curse. She was 9 years old when the “Seven Dirty Words,” so-called, case hit. We told her, “Listen, Kelly, we don’t mind you using that kind of language among people who don’t mind you using that kind of language. But you go to someone else’s house and you’re not sure how that mother or father feels, and most of them won’t like it, that’s not where you say it. You don’t go there and insult other people and violate their own rules that they have. You’re at school or in a setting where that language isn’t called for or accepted, you honor what’s going on there. But there’s nothing wrong with the words. They’re fine. They will not hurt and neither will the things they represent, which you’ll find out more about later.”
I’d say he’s pretty articulate on the phone, wouldn’t you? This is one of the best interviews with one of the Cardinals of Comedy I’ve ever read.
