Isn't this really just a sophisticated form of child abuse? [laughter and applause] George Carlin:
And speaking of that, speaking of child abuse, next up: GRADE SCHOOL! Grade school, where he won't be allowed to play tag because it encourages victimization. [laughter] George Carlin:
And he won't be allowed to play dodgeball because it's exclusionary, and it promotes aggression. Standing around is still okay. [laughter] George Carlin:
Standing around is still permitted, but it won't be for long, because sooner or later some kid is going to be standing around and his foot will fall asleep, and his parents will sue the school, and it'll be goodbye fuckin' standing around! [laughter]
