Irony & Satire…illustrated quite well by George Carlin’s “Modern Man” routine.

Comedian & author, George Carlin, illustrates American English, which is packed with irony.
I’ve always been interested in where “sayings” originate….(etymology), and how many HOMONYMS are in American English, and why particular people speak in a certain manner….have certain speaking tics…have certain impacts in their speaking patterns, etc…
So I came across this video today. It is quite comical how American English is spoken and the phrases that are created.
