George Carlin, the man infamous for coining the Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television has died of heart failure at the age of 71. Carlin was the first host of Saturday Night Live, a bestselling author and one of the few comics whose albums flew off the shelves in the 1970s.

Let's all take a moment and say a dirty word together in honor of his memory.
