George Carlin Rules for 2007
New Rule 1: Stop giving me that pop-up ad for classmates.com !
There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you
don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the
captain of the football team is doing these days: mowing my lawn.
New Rule 2: Don't eat anything that's served to you out a window
unless you're a seagull. People are acting all shocked that a human
finger was found in a bowl of Wendy's chili. Hey, it cost less than
a dollar. What did you expect it to contain? Trout?
New Rule 3: Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their
hot, blonde teachers are permanently damaged. I have a better
description for these kids: lucky bastards
New Rule 4: If you need to shave and you still collect baseball
cards, you're a dope. If you're a kid, the cards are keepsakes of
your idols. If you're a grown man, they're pictures of men.
New Rule 5: Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here's how much men
care about your eyebrows: do you have two of them? Okay, we're done.
New Rule 6: There's no such thing as flavored water. There's a
whole aisle of this crap at the supermarket... water, but without
that watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink.
You want flavored water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it melt.
That should be your flavored water.
New Rule 7: Stop messing with old people. Target is introducing a
redesigned pill bottle that's square, with a bigger label. And the
top is now the bottom. And by the time grandpa figures out how to
open it, his ass will be in the morgue. Congratulations, Target, you
just solved the Social Security crisis.
New Rule 8: The more complicated the Starbucks order, the bigger
the asshole. If you walk into a Starbucks and order a "decaf grande
half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gingerbread
cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n'-Low and one
NutraSweet," ooh, you're a huge asshole.
New Rule 9: I'm not the cashier! By the time I look up from sliding
my card, entering my PIN number, pressing "Enter," verifying the
amount, deciding, "No, I don't want cash back", and pressing "Enter"
again, the kid who is supposed to be ringing me up is standing there
eating my Almond Joy.
New Rule 10: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it
doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your ass.
And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did
anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant.
You're not spiritual. You're just high.
New Rule 11: Competitive eating isn't a sport. It's one of the
seven deadly sins. ESPN recently televised the US Open of
Competitive Eating, because watching those athletes at the poker
table was just too damned exciting. What's next, competitive
farting?
New Rule 12: I don't need a bigger mega M&M. If I'm extra hungry for
M&Ms, I'll go nuts and eat two.
New Rule 13: If you're going to insist on making movies based on
crappy, old television shows, then you have to give everyone in the
Cineplex a remote so we can see what's playing on the other screens.
Let's remember the reason something was a television show in the
first place is that the idea wasn't good enough to be a movie.
New Rule 14: No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just
for weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes and graduations from
rehab. Picking out the stuff you want and having other people buy it for you
isn't gift giving, it's the white people version of looting.
New Rule 15: and this one is long overdue: No more bathroom
attendants. After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint, as if I
just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell if he's supposed
to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on
your webcam, dude. I just want to wash my hands.
