so out of touch they don't even vibrate at the same frequency as the rest of existence, or so far up their own ass that they're staring at their pancreas

What gets me is the creator says they "studied" Carlin in order to match his style. Imagine consuming Carlin's entire body of work and still somehow thinking this was a good idea...

I'm guessing they started with Carlin to get all the fuss out of the way up front, so they can get on with doing all the others with minimal outcry.
