George Carlin - English Language (REACTION!)

[@samjmk3029]

bread has been around for 10,000+ yrs and early knifes were around 3,000 - 4,000yrs ago.

You're not the only one. Just imagine what he would say about Trump & Putin.

[@daveofyorkshire301]

Pre-bought sliced bread is only 1928... Breads been around for 10,000 years... So it's a pretty new development. Guess what the USA banned the sales of sliced bread in 1943... Obviously not for too long...

British ladies reacting to American comedy… I’m a fan. In case you’re wondering, April 15th is the yearly deadline to submit tax returns in the US, and “down the tubes” is another way of saying, “down the toilet.”

[@FrancoisDressler]

or “Down the drain” in the UK

[@PJErvin]

@@FrancoisDressler - I didn’t even think of that one, but yeah, that’s more popular in the US as well. Down the toilet probably came later for…. special occasions.

[@Billinois78]

@@FrancoisDressler That's interesting. "Down the drain" is the most commonly used in the US, too. I don't hear "down the tubes" much.

[@brentamador171]

Your giggle and the way you scrunch your nose is adorable lol

[@tristramcoffin926]

A lot of these are American expressions I would expect would be lost in 'translation' to a couple of Brits but you two understood more of them than I would have guessed.

[@paul1979uk2000]

Most of the same expressions are used in the UK, I think there was only 1 or 2 that wasn't really used in the UK but I understood what they meant, also that fine and dandy one, not really that common anymore but it was used in the older days in the UK, I remember it from when I was a kid but hardly anyone uses it today so I suspect most youngsters don't know that one.

[@nullakjg767]

UK culture is just american culture at this point. Americans wont watch a british show but british people will watch american movies. When a british actor becomes famous enough, they move to america to further their career. So british people know all about american culture. Its americans who know nothing of british culture. They dont produce anything we want to consume so it doesnt rub off.

[@wantutosigh1117]

@@nullakjg767 Though some of these are older expressions that might be lost on Brits. although again maybe it's only 1 or 2.

[@badguy1481]

I believe at the turn of the last century bread was sold UNsliced. When someone came up with the "improvement" to cut down on housewives work load...it WAS GREAT!

[@williambill5172]

Really enjoy your girls - keep it up!

[@daveofyorkshire301]

A dandy is someone attempting to be aesthetically pleasing perhaps even above their status in the 18th/19th century... It came to be known for high aspirational dress sense and/or demeanour. So fine and dandy is feeling good and looking good. You don't feel dandy, you look dandy... As a kid I remember people saying don't you look dapper or dandy, or maybe the more childish don't you look like a fancy-pants...

[@jamesmoritz3584]

Great reaction 😂

[@martylinane7014]

Glad you enjoyed this classic video... esp, since I'm sure some of the items were (are) very American.

React to George Carlin talking about flying, euphemisms, similarities, baseball versus football, and many more

[@dominickthornburghakaTRG]

If I could add one more. Check out his piece called What time is it.

[@breakingames7772]

Here's one you prob never heard but it's good from when he was 70. SUICIDE GUY" He gos thru what a guy about to commit suicide is thinking! The note he left his family is extremely funny... it says: (Cause his body is hanging from the ceiling).. HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT? And ends with : SIGNED THE CORPSE IN THIS ROOM .

[@planetarysolidarity]

Baseball v football was genius.

[@Billinois78]

"Get on the plane.... F*** you! I"M getting IN the plane!" I wonder if someone from the UK would have much appreciation for the Baseball vs Football bit. They're not really that into either, plus to them, football is what we in the US call soccer. As an American, I love that bit.

[@dandecastro51]

Add a compilation of religion. Many many hours of good stuff from him.

[@gregoryhurst8483]

A George Carlin set not only amuses, it teaches you something

[@Billinois78]

I had no idea what the Riot Act was, so I looked it up: "a law passed by the British government in 1715 and repealed in 1967, designed to prevent civil disorder. The act made it a felony for an assembly of more than twelve people to refuse to disperse after being ordered to do so and having been read a specified section of the act by lawful authority." Now... why would somebody read that to you? lol

[@billyboy283]

These girls are so cute!!

[@cryptopappy6408]

I'm so glad you found George. He material is 100% honest and true. I was born and raised in the America he talks about, so I can guarantee you his skits aren't just skits ... it's the real America! You girls are so cute. But more importantly, you like learning. The sexiest thing about you ladies is your brains!

LOL sliced bread hasn't been around for very long, the late Betty White was older than sliced bread. So really sliced bread was the greatest thing since Betty White... O.o

For your information we have exactly 3 tubes, the lower 48, Alaska and Hawaii.

[@coreozurn4950]

I swear George would've been entertained by you two.

[@Erulin68]

The saying 'the best thing since sliced beard' can't be 100 years old seeing as sliced bread was first invented, or the machine that slices it anyway, in 1928. Hence why they tended to say the actress Betty White, America's darling who recently passed away just short of her 100th birthday, was older than sliced bread as she was born in 1922.

[@Uthgardloki]

Came to say just this.

[@michaelj3959]

People were slicing bread with knives long before any machine was invented to do it.

Ya but back in the day they referred to those actress as "the best thing since sliced bread".

I believe the term "best thing since sliced bread" came about in the early 50's to describe the television set.

[@Hexon66]

But the thing is, as a flat piece of bread, it's nowhere close to being as good as pita or naan, or focaccia even.

You two ladies handled George well. He was old school. So many folks today are thin skinned, cannot handle comedians like George. May I suggest that you two find Rodney Dangerfield. Rodney never got any respect.. But he was bust your gut funny. He was some movies too.

[@ArrogantAngel]

the thing about the saying.. they say that sliced bread was so great is because at the time they started using machines to slice bread for mass production, they also started making bread with minerals and vitamins mixed in. before that bread wasn't actually too nutritious. so the greatness of bread being sliced was actually just an event which lined up with slicing and actually was making bread good for you.
