Whether you are on the right or the left, you can’t argue with George Carlin’s humor. (Ok, if you are on the right, you probably have a harder time finding the humor.) But regardless of where you stand, George Carlin’s incredibly successful comedy career spanned 50 years.

He was the first host of SNL, he guest hosted for Carson, he was present at Lenny Bruce’s arrest for obscenity, and went to jail for refusing to show his ID, telling them that he did not believe in government issued IDs. Carlin was the last of the “Damn-the-Man” political humorists that were abundant in the 1960s; he took having balls to an epic level.

All in all, George Carlin kicked ass. He gets his last word in once more with the release of his new book Last Words.

Started in 1993 with friend Tony Hendra, his book is a collection of stories and trying times – from trouble with drugs and alcohol to his rise in comedy. When Carlin died at age seventy-one in June 2008 with the book still unpublished, Hendra set out to assemble it as his friend would have wanted. Last Words is the result.

We have an exclusive copy of the introduction of the book for COED readers here. And we will be giving away copies of the book from our Twitter feed.

When the news broke recently that Ann Coulter had been dumped by her boyfriend, whose body she apparently hasn’t had a chance to eat yet, word quickly spread through the pickup artist community that a new top prize was loose on the field. You see, Ann is to pickup artists what ten point bucks are to hunters. She is their Moby Dick. Successfully picking her up would be the most impressive display of game maybe ever, or at least since John Smith famously day gamed Pocahontas back in the 1400s.

Ann’s eligibility has ignited a fierce debate amongst seasoned PUAs: how does one effectively employ Mystery’s teachings when your target is the most deranged female (who wasn’t born by Judy Garland) on the planet? Tried and true methods like negging and magic tricks are guaranteed to work on any woman no matter what, but since your target might not be entirely human, these techniques need to be adjusted accordingly in order to be 100-percent effective.

Getting ready to throw yourself back into that world of dorming? And do you care about the environment? Well, good luck. Being green, in some dorms, is pretty freakin’ hard. Recycling bins are nowhere to be found, resources are being wasted left and right and most of the kids around you don’t care.

That doesn’t mean you have to throw in the non-recyclable towel. There are so many things you can do to reduce your carbon footprint and give back to Mother Earth. Here are some tips to help the planet and inspire your peers to do the same:

1. Skip the single serving snack-packs. Get a big bag and make your own single-serving portion in a small plastic bag when you’re on the go. Wash the bag out when you’re done and do it again the next time. It’s that easy.

2. Chill out with the AC. Tons of college students keep their AC’s running just because they can. That’s not cool! (Note: yes, the pun was intended.) Don’t act like a monkey when it comes to the environment. Leaving your AC running while you’re out hurts the planet regardless of whether or not you’re paying the bill. (more…)

Americans are a materialistic bunch and I am no exception. And now that I’m faced with the task of moving all my stuff into a new apartment, I understand why too much stuff can be bad. My lease ends in two days; I’ve already found a new place, and I’m moving in with some good friends, but moving still sucks.

Somehow over the past year I’ve accumulated a substantial pile of sh*t, and it’s currently sitting in the center of my room. I need to dig through it, sort it out, and pack it in boxes so I can schlep it across town. Really, I need to downsize my life.

Here are the five things I’ve decided to get rid of to make this move easier. (more…)

The following article satire is brought to you by the folks at COED:

I often find myself asking myself (is that a run on?) “where is the perfect location for meeting girls?”

Sure, clubs are often the first place that comes to mind, but my cute pick-up lines don’t always work well when attempting to talk over loud, fist-pumping music to orange-skinned girls from Staten Island.

A desperate fella like me must suck it up and meet girls the hard way: in real life. (more…)

If you were planning on purchasing Amazon’s ebook reader, the Kindle, you may have to wait longer than expected.

After much skepticism of the product, let alone who the gadget’s target audience would be, Kindle sales soared past all expectations, going out of stock in two days. Who knew that a portable electronic device not named iPod, Nintendo DS or Sony PSP would be in demand this holiday season?

The Kindle’s early success is mainly due to its exclusivity – how many other ebooks are on the market, let alone created by one of the world’s major book sellers? – but it’s undeniable that the convenient, user-friendly system is what attracts bookworms without feeling like they’re stepping away from…well…reading a book. (more…)

Whether taking a flight home for the holidays or embarking on a cross-country road trip, traveling with electronics is essential to your happiness, unless you enjoy being bored out of your mind and are allergic to fun. If that’s the case…I can’t help you. Nobody can.

The following gadgets will assist you greatly on your grand adventure:

Nintendo DS

I love the multi-purpose Sony PSP as much as the next guy (what does that phrase even mean?), but I find myself returning to the simple charms of the Nintendo DS far more often. The stylus-based gameplay is tailor-made for wasting time during those long stretches on the road/in the air. Couple that with a long battery life and it’s a no-brainer (unless you have Brain Age 2).

With the money I spent on textbooks in college, I could now own a plethora of designer purses. Not that I need any more bags, but I didn’t really need any more books either. The textbook dilemma is never one easily solved.For the most part, you don’t know which books you’ll be using first before the first day of class and the requisite first day of class syllabus. I remember my freshman year I spent over $500 easily on books for my first semester.

That much money pains me now, much more than it did then. Back then I had the good ole M&D to rely on.

Now? Now I just have ramen. And rent due tomorrow.

So, you can’t buy your books before classes begin because there is the possibility you will never use them or just use them for one f*cking assignment. It’s so annoying.

Textbooks are essential to college and also one of the biggest college pains in my ass.

Here, I have outlined my no fail way to succeed at your first real college assignment: Buying Your Textbooks.

Textbook Tip #1

Don’t buy your books before the first day of class. There is just no need! I mean, really, you’re going to be drinking copious amounts of beer during your first few days anyways and having too much fun to even think about classes starting. Class, however, is an inevitable evil.

Textbook Tip #2

The next few tips take a bit of time and research so don’t get discouraged and just drop the dough down in the campus bookstore. First collect all your syllabi. Write down the books you will need. ISBN numbers are a gift from God. Write them down. Also make sure you have down the correct volume and edition. Nothing sucks more than buying the wrong book and having to search all semester long through the wrong edition for a particular page number or problem. (more…)
