Crapulence (another Simpsons word for Greg)
Morning Wood
Bitter Thoughts / Bitter Remembrances (throw-back to beer)
A Cock and a Blowhard
Baby Legs (Just kidding on that one)

I can't believe Greg asked Allison if she likes cock and balls...and Jeff didn't beat him to death...lol

Many many years later..."Allison how did you first learn about masturbation? Oh, well my dad and Greg were talking about it over the radio with hundreds of people listening when I was a baby."

Seriously, who asks someone else to come over and try it?

And I have a question I've been meaning to ask for a really long time: Why can't Greg ever edit the shows?

Oh My- Where to start, this

Oh My-
Where to start, this one was going nowhere good. Thank goodness Allison had enough.
However-
You guys had me laughing out loud and thankful I was by myself.
Greg seriouly, the cock and balls to Allison was WRONG commenting on her expression was border line creepy.
I say that because I have a daughter and I probably would have smacked you.
I do like the extra feeds because I am never sure what I will get...

Oh, come now. She's less

Oh, come now. She's less than 6 months old. She's not in any way aware of what I am saying or where she is except in the absolutely most rudimentary sense. I wouldn't even think of doing or saying what I did had she even been 1 year old, had she even a tiny grasp of language. She isn't even in the babbling stage yet, just making random noises. She's a beautiful little girl and I wouldn't dream of harming her in any way, physically or psychologically, but a little joke demonstrating the funny little period where a baby is much like a puppy - you can say whatever you want to it and tone is all that matters - was, I think, not wrong nor borderline creepy.

Anyway, what's so wrong with talking about roosters and bouncing toy spheres?

Saying something that is

Saying something that is WRONG is the whole point.

Of course there is too far. Like infant molestation / murder. You would have to have one hell of a punch line to pull off that joke. But suggesting that she will be a slut when she grows up, that's funny. (At long as it doesn't happen).

OK I got it

I said:
"You guys had me laughing out loud and thankful I was by myself."
I listen in the car so there was a chance that my 3 and 5 year olds would have heard.
My 3 year old daughter repeating "Cock & Balls" to my wife would have been very bad indeed.
I realize that the pre and post are usually at least R rated and don't listen with company.
I just saw a sudden downward spiral that I couldn't turn off.
and we all know George Carlin liked to point out a radio has 2 knobs one to change the station and one to turn it off.
I did neither...

This is where it would be nice to believe in an afterlife. It would be awesome to think that, after his death, GC could see everyone being more aware of some of the points behind his humour. Of course, he was also an atheist, so it may cause some kind of irony cascade reaction and destroy the multiverse...
