I know someday you'll have a beautiful life.

He said,
"Here are some more musical vermin who's mothers, we wish, had a medical plan which included abortion. These singers, these singers who think they're so special that they only need one name. Bono, Sting, Jewel, Tiffany, Prince... what a crock of sh**, get a f***ing last name, would ya please. I got a nice 2-word name for you. Pretentious co**su**er. How do you like that, Bonooo, Stiiing. It's not bad enough their music sucks, but with no last name, you can't find out where they live to throw a f***ing bomb through their window. It's frustrating"

Adam: Look guys, I got a Springfield spoon for my spoon collection.
Edge: Oh boy, here we go...
Bono: Wow, how many is that now Adam?
Adam: Nine. If I didn't have my spoons, I'd go insane.
Bono: Can I see it?
*adam gives bono the spoon, bono throws it away*
Adam: My spoon!

I agree with Salome.
I was hoping Carlin had something a bit more intelligent and original. I think Carlin is at his best when he is making you think.
This was the musical equivolent of the an airplane peanuts joke. done to death

Yes, surprisingly stale for Carlin. Apparently, someone needs to throw a bomb through HIS window - perhaps that will give him some inspiration to write some jokes that don't suck.

Or write some new jokes...
When I was in Vegas in 2000, I saw Carlin perform at Bally's.. he did the same routine he's done the past few years (the whole use Colorado or whatever as prison states for fuckups and fuckheads) and his whole Complaints and Grievances routine. For the C&G routine, he was looking at a sheet of paper and was basically reading, not delivering his lines. At a semi-steep ticket price, I would think Carlin with all his crankiness and finger-pointing would attempt to deliver something new, and something funny. At any rate, tho - it was cool to see him - but had I known he was going to deliver the same old shit, I would have passed and kept the $80.

Fifteen or twenty years ago Carlin was a genius but he's coasting now. He played my campus six years ago and he was dull, dull, dull. It was depressing because he's got such a sharp mind and a quick wit. To see him resorting to playing a cocksucking (literally) hitch-hiker in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was depressing enough. But to resort to making fun of rock stars? Especially easy targets like Jewel and Sting? Pathetic.
