George Carlin was a legend in the comic world, but he also was legendary for his vices. While waning himself off cocaine and cigarettes after his second heart attack, he switched to smokeless tobacco.
While not as damaging as the cocaine, he still went a little overboard, eventually having a whole room in his house dedicated to his new hobby. It was a very elegant room, with hundreds of exotic smokeless tobacco products from all over the world. A modest man, never one to brag, and he just referred to the room as, "A Place for My Snuff."
Gonna assume no one saw this part? Or maybe no one wants me to share. But let me know!
Sorry I did not see that, but you are more than welcome to share, of course...as long as yr not taking credit..but I know you have too much class to be a joke thief!
I love that movie from the 90s starring George Carlin and Keanu Reeves-it's the biopic on Chaka Khan and George Carlin really nailed his performance as Rufus.
As an aging comedian and actor in the 2000s, George Carlin decided to get "on the road again" and Fillmore roles as a voiceover actor, performing in Cars and in Thomas the Tank Engine.
If George Carlin were still around, I think he would have some critical advice and social commentary for Kanye West.
He would just tell him "it's bad for Ye !"

Totally missed it! But yes, absolutely would be up for that
I think he would say, "pass that big bowl of ye over my way!" 😂 🧃

Yes, @improv but trying to do it in a language that is not your native language presents a challenge on another level, however i try dear friend :)
Yeah! Give it a shot! And feel free to make a pun in your native language if you prefer!
@improv oh thank you very much, as I understand the translation of "pun" is like a kind of slang of the language that is used to joke with words that are pronounced the same but probably have a different meaning.
So what I have understood is that: they make a pun is like making a kind of joke with a play on words.
Please correct me if so.
I will soon try to make a publication in Spanish and English so that you notice the difference of how a "pun" looks in English and the same "pun" but in Spanish.
HA! I know just enough Spanish to get that one!
I was trying for too long to think of an example without using English, but my Spanish is pretty limited and from 20+years ago, so I had to outsource one!
