George Carlin, comedic legend, died today of heart failure at St. John’s medical center in Santa Monica, CA.

Carlin was a pioneer in the realm stand-up comedy, pushing the limits of good taste before it was cool. His epitaph would be complete with the “Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television”: Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, CockSucker, MotherFucker and Tits.

RIP
