I find his pudgy face and perpetual sarky teenager demeanour irritating,
but concede he has been funny at times.

I would have thought you liked his nihilistic outlook

He's a bit of a cock.

Me?
An astute personality judgement right there.

Stuart Lee? Quite likely true also.

Stuart Lee is a cock
an unfunny one at that

this is also true
but when he is good he is very good, I love the piece he does to tear Joe Pasquale apart

Yes, that's in the book.

God that must be really hard to do.

He's got a face that'll get on your nerves, etc....

He's actually really nice
I met him briefly at a comic convention and he was utterly bemused as to why he'd even been asked to be there.

mind you, when you are meeting someone as sycophantic as I turned out, it's probably hard to not be nice.

I disagree.

You have every right to.
I respect your opinion 100%.

Are you saying you disagree?

If that's what you think
then that is fine by me.

I generally do.
But last time I saw him live (granted he was rehearsing TV stuff, but I saw it on TV and it was no better) he spent ages talking about his granddad liking crisps. I think the theory was if he kept referencing the same vaguely surreal, but in and of its self unfunny, idea it would become funny.

I did not find it funny when Vic Reaves made a career out of it, and I did not find it funny when Stuart Lee (all be it more subtly) did it.

A lot of his comedy is based on repetition for effect; I quite liked the crsip routine

This maybe true, but it's not something I enjoy.
/personal taste.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 31 Aug 2011, 9:51, Reply)

I'm lately finding him self-indulgent and unfunny.
Richard herring, by contrast is juvenile but consistently enjoyable.

Also have an internet point for not just calling him bent.
