Stewart Lee.
He's so clever and self-referential.

I did laugh when he quoted you on his website

That's one of the fine examples of his clever self-reference, you see?
By using my quote, he's displaying that he inspires strong opinion, and thus is probably worth checking out.

Very clever. He clearly understands irony and everything.

The thing about his self-referentialism is that you can't really get it unless you've seen a lot of other self-referentialists
what he does is, like, meta self-referentialism

Yes - he's so clever.
I find him very funny, because I too am very clever, and understand his jokes.

You do get that, don't you? I am VERY clever. That's why I can understand his jokes.

That's why he's so funny
Because he points out how clever you have to be to understand his jokes at least three or four times a show - he's even self-referenced his own cleverness and the implied cleverness of his target audience by describing people who aren't clever enough to understand his humour as "horrible idiots"

It's all very meta

I think I love him.

They are but mere clowns!
Stewart Lee is the real stuff!

He doesn't DO jokes

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:08, closed)
Quite.
He does, like, comedy beyond jokes.

Trancendental that's what he is.

He once described michael mcintyre as the warm diarrhea running down the leg of british comedy.

that ^^^ there is an example of a man at the height of his game. So confident it his own powers of saying the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over again he can rubbish this mainstream idiot for having the audacity to tell funny stories act like a dick for laughs and being able to sell out the O2 for a month.

Genius is so often overlooked

So if I say you're shit for saying Stewart Lee's shit for saying Michael Mcintyre's shit will this also make me a comedy genius?

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:35, closed)
Yes and shit





I think McIntyre is shit too
(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:43, closed)
Tell me who you think is funny so then I can say I think they're shit.
Then we'll see how YOU like it.
(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:49, closed)
Fine, I'm just gonna take a guess.
Paul O'Grady is shit
(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:59, closed)
He'll be quoting you again if you're not careful.

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:53, closed)
I live in hope.

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 12:39, closed)
Yeah I'm not sure that you're his target audience.

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:07, closed)
I certainly don't feel the need to wave my cock around in public, saying "Look at my massive cock! Look at it! Look at it!"

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:17, closed)
OK

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:20, closed)
Is that because it's really small?

(, Fri 7 Dec 2012, 11:51, closed)

Yes.

Performing this routine in Glasgow buys him a lot of credit in my book.

Firstly, William Wallace, Braveheart, your national hero, he wasn't some noble savage living in a mud hut. He was a privileged, educated Nobleman, right? Secondly, its not mentioned in the film, but there's some evidence to suggest that he actually fought as a mercenary for the English as a teenager. Thirdly, you know that French princess he's supposed to have sex with? The implication is that he gets her pregnant and she marries Edward II of England so its his kid. Now she was a real historical figure, that French princess. But at the time of the death of William Wallace, Braveheart, your national hero, she was only 4 years old. Now, Glasgow, Im not saying that William Wallace, Braveheart, your national hero, didn't have sex with her. You know, he probably did. If I look at my own background there's a lot of sexual opportunism involved. Im not saying he didn't have sex with her but if he did, and he definitely did, it would have been a far less romantic scene. Than the one enacted by Mel Gibson in the film Braveheart. It may have happened in a tent but it would still have been not a romantic scene. Because that would have made William Wallace, Braveheart, your national hero, a paedophile. A Scottish paedophile. The worst kind of paedophile that there is. Coming at you... through a bothy... With shortbread on its face. Muttering unintelligible sexual threats in a frankly incomprehensible dialect.
