This was in 1992. I like how George's example, that we only help one another after a flood, no longer even applies in the US, as you have people arguing some people from some places shouldn't be helped even after a natural disaster.

Love George Carlin. Love this explanation. The fact remains that vagina shaped missiles are just not aerodynamically feasible.

Yeah I kind of hate that last part in the clip. It's like when people say a skyscraper is "phallic" by design...as if it could be any other shape. Are pencils phallic, too? It's weird to me when people apply sexuality to non-sexual design

You could make curtain-blocks, or enclosures with a park inside, I guess.

It's how we evolved. Not a lot to say about it.
