  • George Carlin Influence

    1316 Words  | 3 Pages

    Large numbers of comedians began adopting the styles that Carlin is said to have pioneered, from his political rants shadowed by Lewis Black, his observational comedy and word play used by Jerry Seinfeld. Seinfeld in a posthumous article said "You could certainly say that George downright invented modern American stand-up comedy in many ways. Every comedian does a little George." Seinfeld goes onto say while chatting with other comedians about joke ideas they would say “Carlin does it.” or “Carlin already did it,” and “Carlin did it eight years ago.” Another disciple in the University of Carlin's is Louis Székely known to us as Louis C.K. Louis honored George in a post-obit tribute in 2010 at the New York Public Library by saying that Carlin had a far-reaching effect on his career when at the time C.K. has been in place where he felt his comedy was going nowhere. C.K. said in a moment where he felt like nothing was going right he heard a George Carlin interview and that Carlin mentioned his method of starting every year with a blank slate and that it caused him to become more introspective. C.K. then took that concept and ran with it and is now one of the most popular and revered standup comedians of today. "Anything that happens to me that is good is due to this guy(Carlin), I can tell you because I do what he

  • Batman Research Paper

    My father and Batman are both seen as heroes to me because they both share similar qualities such as bravery, perseverance, and understanding. For example, there was a time where my family went to the community park and we witness a brush fire started near the tennis courts. A lot of people were scared and didn’t know what to do but my father started getting jugs of water and started to try and put out the fire. My father was one of the only people who tried to put out the fire. Even though he knew he potentially could’ve gotten hurt, he still did it to protect others. Just like how Batman would protect the citizens of Gotham City from villains like The Joker, Bane or The Penguin. Batman knows he can potentially die facing off with these enemies but has the courage to do it anyways because he has to protect his city no matter what, like my dad trying to protect his family from the brush fire. Another characteristic he shares with Batman is his perseverance.
