    People's ability to comment on Stewart Lee videos without referring back to his classic material - especially by suggesting that some person or other has 'let themself go' - has let itself go.

    I find Simon's proposal of virtual reality headsets for chickens all the more concerning because I suspect that 'chicken' is a metaphor for a certain race of human. I have made some deductions from the film 'American History X': The protagonist, Derek, is a member of a Neo-Nazi group lead by a man called Cameron. Derek is sent to prison where he gets bummed. This changes his views on Cameron and the Neo-Nazi group. When he is released from prison, he sets about leaving the group. He confronts Cameron and calls him a 'snake' and a 'chickenhawk', before beating him up and leaving. In a deleted scene set in a fried chicken restaurant, Cameron is conversing with his loyal sidekick, Seth. Seth is character based on Gabe Newell, head of Valve Software, and the scene contains numerous metaphors regarding the theft of an idea that would become one of Valve Software's most popular titles, 'Counter-Strike'. This game has a number of chicken references in it, all encouraging violence and aggression towards chickens. They are planning to release a virtual reality headset called 'Steam VR'. Plus theres Bruce and 'Abe' the film 'Looper', and Goose Gladwell and his 'loopy lawyers' in the Simpsons. 322 Skull & Bones plundering your ideas, Illuminati confirmed.

    Stewart Lee is even less funny and more grumpy in real life. I saw him in Birmingham once and he was carrying on at a little girl who had mistaken him for some Serbian war criminal and was trying to get her dad to ring the police. A crowd gathered round him menacingly and he kept insisting he was a comedian. "Pull the other one", a woman cried out in a Smethwick accent. 2 community police officers arrived and things were looking bad for him but one said he did look a bit like an irritating liberal guy he had once seen on TV- though much fatter now. They eventually let him go.
