Updating George Carlin’s 7 Words You Can’t Say On Television

by John Shore on September 5, 2007 in Humor · 32 comments

Yes, George’s original seven words are Definite Cursing. But so what? You hear half those words on TV all the time. Especially since Martha Stewart got out of prison.

So I think Mr. Carlin’s list needs updating. Here, then, is my personal vote for Seven Other Words No One Should Ever Be Allowed to Say On Television:

1. Insider
2. Conniption
3. Diarrhea
4. Urantia
5. Matriculating
6. Sudsy
7. Gary Coleman

My goodness I can’t believe I never commented on this thread about my all-time favorite English language word…

DIARRHEA!

I love it not only for the way it flows…. but for the way it sort of catches for a moment on the RR before the HEA gushes on out.

Whats wrong with the word “Urantia”?
It is difficult for me to imagine the problem…
Would you mind explaining?
