The following is transcript of one of Carlin's program, not the above unfortunately, but it helps to read it.

Wow! ...and Tits doesn't even belong on the list. That is such a friendly

some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and

there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.
# w% C6 p- O: A: Y$ U$ UI mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend

It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the O: w; q6 U" d* a5 L4 \
other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go
! Z# @, ^. q3 @& R! Z: ftogether of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
5 J1 k8 k& o! pPiss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were
9 N7 D. `+ H0 V1 C6 [8 Y& ^certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I
9 H& d, d4 K/ G# `: W# M& R. g$ ddon't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such
5 G* [0 M& _4 r# P/ M( Dstupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."5 u- a: k9 s: Z& B Y* W: j( U

accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think
M4 u3 W# u6 Kit takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very
" J5 W2 T7 W: W0 i0 i: Y- M/ Z3 `7 iimprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to

than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is' h( s& K9 P0 _- R4 v
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but! H3 R% ~% _1 S- P
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for7 Z7 s. ~2 h O# W n6 y& B; L
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,

" s' A; v7 A/ h9 d3 z0 ~7 SI hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any; Y) d2 d. q* c* e
circumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even

and Johnny. I mean, it is just impossible. Forget tHose 7. They're out.
