I don't know..I agreed with pretty much everything the guy based his stand-up routine on, but I never personally thought of him as an extraordirary comedian. I can understand why he was so popular, though. Especially nowadays.

Oh how things have changed in..11 and a half years?!

I'll just say that

Carlin was an extraordinary comedian. But I guess I'm kind of an odd ball for also preferring his lighter comedy days. He spew truths dressed in black as he got older, almost like a preacher. I think by the end he was how Bill Hicks would have eventually become. Both were more existential and about the big picture than a run of the mill stand up routine. Kind of like philosophers who wrap truth in jokes.

I was probably initially turned off by his focus on Christianity (which he slumped together as "religion"). Now, I'm not religious at all, but I was probably kind of fed up with militant atheists at that point and thought he was lauded by these fedora-clad lads because of his thoughts on religion. I didn't take into account his own Roman Catholic upbringing and whatnot. So, I wasn't and aren't offended by such acts. But it did get tiresome. I just didn't take into account that was but a drop in the array of topics Carlin discussed.

I was initially introduced to his "fire and brimstone" era acts and after probably seen them all by now, I'm checking out these early days clips. Back when he would make observational comedy about mundane things instead of just mankind steadily sinking. And was obviously very stoned 

Joo toi mini-sarja oli kyllä Netflix-progressiivinen, ja siinä oli näitä pakotettuja vähemmistö juttuja, mutta kokonaisuudessaan sarja oli mielestäni kyllä hyvä. Oikeastaan riittää, jos katsoo ekan jakson. Kaksi seuraavaa jaksoa ovat melko kokeilullisia.

Ohimennen olin aiemmin kuullut ja sekasin sen nimen kuultuani johonkin samanimiseen sarjaan (varmaan tuohon Dragulaan, jossa transvestiitit kisaavat, kuka on paras superhirviö). Ei ollut, mutta  ei nyt silleen hirveästi toki tänä päivänä yllätä, että tämmöisistä jutuista pitää saada keskustelu aikaiseksi:

Moffat made a point about Dracula's sexuality in their show, since it is insinuated that Dracula has sex with Jonathan Harker, the solicitor sent to his lair in Transylvania, saying that it is not correct to describe Dracula as bisexual: "He's bi-homicidal, it's not the same thing. He's killing them, not dating them." He also added: "He's not actually having sex with anyone. He's drinking their blood."

Että vähän olen sillä lailla, että plääh, toivottavasti tässä oli ainoa kannanotto asiaan

Mua oikeasti kiinnostaisi kaikkein eniten sille kirjalle uskollisuus. Taitaa Nosferatu vielä tähänkin päivään mennessä olla kaikkein lähimpänä sitä?

Ai olihan meillä ketju tällekin, vaikka aika vanha.

Kun nyt on läpi pelattu, täytyy sanoa vain että 10/10, lisää tälläisiä. Oli just mitä halusin IGAvanialta. 

Vuosi on jälleen vaihtumassa. Tällä kertaa vaihtuu myös vuosikymmen, joten parempaa uutta vuosikymmentä vaanijoille.
