Very sad. Some of his early stuff was super funny. His later stuff seemed like it was just some old guy complaining. I couldn't listen to it.
It was very strange, watching him on some of my kid's Thomas the Tank Engine shows, as the conductor. Ringo Starr did some too. Just about freaked me out. RIP George! |

I saw this earlier and I thought it was too bad - he was a funny guy.
Best wishes to his family. Matthew |

I just heard about him being honored with that award last week. I wasn't expecting this. Too bad, he was not only extremely funny but was very good at tweaking society's sensibilities by exposing the absurd and mocking the hypocrisy of it all. I'll never forget those seven words, either!
Thanks for all of the laughs, George. So George, when we die, does our soul really go to a garage in Brooklyn? It just dawned on me just how much of his humor is part of my everyday thought process. Nothing was sacred to him. And sometimes, that's just what we need. |

I thought he was comedic genius. He saw things in a way that no one else saw them and then shared them with us. He cursed but his timing was impecable. Not like these unfunny mofos mounting the stage today. At least now he doesn't need a place to store his stuff.

last time I saw him in Vegas, he was obsessed with masturbation jokes.
Wonder if there will be more dead kittens in heaven? |

We saw his act in Vegas a couple of years ago. He was a master of our language. Love what he did with "golf" and
"stuff" etc. I will miss him. |
