George Carlin is dead

Carlin

I grew up watching this guy's specials on HBO. I had to turn off the last few of them, but whatever. That's just me being a hater. Seriously, why even point out some shit like that the day after a guy died?

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- George Carlin, the influential comedian whose routines used profanity, scatology and absurdity to point out the silliness and hypocrisy of human life, has died. He was 71.

Carlin, who had a history of heart trouble, died of heart failure Sunday in Los Angeles, according to publicist Jeff Abraham. Carlin went into St. John's Health Center on Sunday afternoon, complaining of chest pain, and died at 5:55 p.m. PT.

After the jump, via $habooty, is Carlin's "Religion Is Bullshit." Watch and learn, kids.
