    It’s nothing like Carlin.

    It’s theft of his work.

    Pick one.

      I read it like:

      Mimic, pace of tone and body language are parts of the work.

      That they don’t hit the main part (I.e the humor) is just the icing.

      Perhaps I’m top lenient though.

          I’m just saying that I see that those two statements can exists at the same time without a huge mental leap - not that I agree with it - I apologize if I didn’t make that clear enough in the first post!
