Line 222:
* Bill Hicks' comedy routines were pretty much nothing but this trope. He liked challenging mainstream beliefs on society, religion, politics and pop culture, often in a deliberately controversial way.
* [[George Carlin]]'s later concerts have tended to include at least one section that comes across as not so much comedy as a rant to the effect that "the very concept of religion, and in particular Christianity, is inherently illogical and overbureaucratic."
** Overall George Carlin's career can be summed up as starting out as "guy telling obscene jokes with a lot of profanity with witty observations sprinkled throughout" and ending up as "grumpy old man standing on stage bitching about the stuff he hates".
