I don't find fart jokes funny at all, and I think Carlin is highly overrated. His early stuff, like the stuff they are playing today.....frankly it sucks. His later stuff was more a pissed off old man spouting why he hates everything. Some of his later stuff was entertaining, I don't mean to say he totally sucked, but I found his observations to be highly simplistic; meaning it didn't take a genius to observe all the crap he did because anyone WITH intelligence already observed it.
Simplistic? So, who do you consider a good comic? I've been a Carlin fan since I was about 10 years old, and over the years I have found him to be nothing short of brilliant. Funny, cranky, thought-provoking. He was a giant of modern comedy.
