# 'more'? you mean 'some'
however. I like this a lot!

I attempted something like this once, but it's not very good.

# Is this the previous owner of Spider Jerusalem's cat?
EDIT: I've just remembered I tried to watch another Stewart Lee thing at the weekend.

He really is that up himself - "I'm going to tell a joke, and then it's all going to tie together at the end, and you'll find it funny, so keep watching".

I must be missing some really clever irony here, because to me that comes across not only as patronising, but misguidedly self-agrandising too.

He would so love to be Charlie Brooker, and can't even reach that. He should go back to driving taxis.

At least Richard Herring can be funny.

# I didn't. It appears that he's being "ironic" in that studenty way, but not in nearly as clever a manner as he thinks he is.

# i think it's pretty clever.
Read his book and you'd realise how much thought goes into every word. Anyway, he's not a mainstream comedian and he doesn't appeal to everyone - that's why they put him on after newsnight.

If you dont understand his appeal, dont feel ashamed, you're in the majority.

# It's deconstructive comedy.
I lost all respect for Richard Herring when I saw him live a few years ago and he got annoyed at people shouting out Fist of Fun/TMWRNJ catchphrases, telling them how that was years ago and that he'd moved on, and then proceeded to rehash a sketch from the Lee and Herring radio show later in his routine.
