CarlinвЂ™s comedy celebrated obstruction and fighting the establishment. I loved and respected his work and IвЂ™m absolutely sure he never would have said anything like this. It pisses me off whenВ people put words in GeorgeвЂ™s mouth, especially since heвЂ™s dead. Why? Because I am very certain that George CarlinВ never said this. From my original post:Д«oth times IвЂ™ve seen this meme featuring George Carlin, IвЂ™ve hidden it. A mutual friend sent me a private message letting me know that he was riling up all his Trump supporting friends over this vent. Then, he posted the article on his page and I soon had a bunch of right wing mental giants from the Deep South hitting my blog, racking up ad revenue. He left a nasty comment on my OH Facebook page and blocked me. Former friend read the vent and got pissed off at me. The guy who had inspired my rant shared the above meme, with the comment вЂњCarlin pulled no punches.вЂќ I kept seeing this meme on my timeline and it annoyed me. Especially when people falsely attribute things to the late George Carlin, who is one of my idols and whose wisdom has gotten me through some shit. Some have rationalized that itвЂ™s the thought that counts, not the person who came up with the thought. A lot of people donвЂ™t care that the deep thoughts they share on social media are bullshit. NoteвЂ“ the post was not specifically about the guy, it was about the practice of sharing falsely attributed memes. One day, I got irritated because some guy, long gone from my friends list, had shared a fake meme. It wasnвЂ™t as bad as the summer of 2014, but it was a pretty tough time. Looking back, that summer was pretty traumatic for a number of reasons. Maybe IвЂ™ll think of something totally fresh later.ДЄnyway, I came across a rant I wrote back in the summer of 2017.

I just really like the sheets, which I discovered on a visit to a B&B in Goshen, Virginia.Д®TA: Many apologies, since I have already bitched about this particular complaint on the new blogвЂ¦ the original re-run repost is not exactly the same as this one, but it does include the same screenshots and basic story. I donвЂ™t work for the company or get any kickbacks. I have really excellent Comphy sheets on my bed, too, which makes for prime sleeping conditions. Nowadays, I drop off at the drop of a hat if IвЂ™m lying down and comfortable. I probably should invest in a chair for reading, rather than reading in bed.

I am working on reading a book right now, but as usual, I keep falling asleep before I can make too much progress. At the very least, I can find book reviews that I can repost, although IвЂ™m slowly running out of those. I did write a few posts on the old blog that are chestnutsвЂ¦ or evergreenвЂ¦ or whatever. When that happens, I often go to my original Google version of this blog to find inspiration. This morning, I find myself with a touch of writerвЂ™s block.

So much butthurt meme
