Steward Lee on his beating from the McDonaolds & Coca-cola-clad O------ Advertisement Enforcement Agency.

This is a normal post Some people wonder why Lee is almost universally despised, here is an example of the cunt's modesty from that article:
'When you've won two British Comedy awards, a Bafta and a Chortle award all in the same year, it's easy to rest on your laurels and I find that grappling with Twitter's stylistic limitations helps me keep my wits sharp and my comedy muscle match-fit.'

I think you'll find that the article is a pisstake, and Lee's 'modesty' is, and always has been, a joke about his fame - or lack of it.

I'm not the biggest fan, but unlike Gervais (a total cunt) who is almost singularly obsessed with fame, I think most of Stewart Lee's stuff is based on a carefully staged persona.

This is a normal post oh, so he is a knowingly self-parodying ironic cunt
that just makes him even more of a cunt

This is a normal post I've just been informed that he doesn't even have a Twitter account
and apparently, the whole thing's a satire on the sort of person that would write a column like that.

This is a normal post Some people wonder why Lee is almost universally despised, it's because they forget some people aren't clever enough to get his jokes

This is a normal post I once saw a person with an extra chromosome laughing at Lee.
He knows his audience well.

I'd put him up there with the godlike Daniel Kitson as one of the best standups working today.

Big fucking gap between the two, but still, up there.

This is a normal post I saw Kitson die on his arse a few years ago, it was cringeworthy.
But I do like him when he's on his game, takes deconstruction to untold heights.

This is a normal post Not when you see it in the context
of boasting about his position on Twitter, which does require people to know that he's not actually on Twitter, admittedly.

I assume he's using a few real facts to prop up his lie.

This is a normal post I'm on of B3ta's Stewart Lee fans. There, I've said it.
This isn't his finest hour but it was an enjoyable read and valuable satire about the killjoy almost dictator-style corporate takeover of the games.
