Carlin for his much more massive body of work.

His last HBO show when he was 70 was hil-frikin-arious.

George Carlin is the greatest comedian of all time.

^ What he said.

Agreed. He's more than a comedian though. He's my personal Jesus!!!

I wouldn't call him my personal Jesus (cue Depeche Mode), but I definitely take a lot of my points of view from things he said. Many things that really bother me about our society are things that Carlin opened my eyes to and pointed put the blatant fuck ups in society. It's not so much that he influenced me into thinking the way I do, but more encouraged me to think the way I do. :hatsoff:

I'm a Carlin guy, but I respect Pryor's genius.

 

[wrayven]

I like both of them, but I have always preferred Richard Pryor

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

George Carlin is the best stand-up comedian ever.

Richard Pryor was funny and influential and inspired a lot of black comics along with Redd "Fred Sandford" Foxx, Bill Cosby, and Franklin Ajaye.

 

[DJCowboy]

I'm gonna go with Richard Prior because he wasn't all preachy and political like Carlin was later on, but that's not to say Carlin wasn't funny and he did no what he was talking about, I just don't really care about that kind of stuff in my comedians

 

[Facial_King]

Richard prior to the point when he was dead.
