Richard Herring gave this troll a taste of their own medicine and it’s a supremely satisfying read

We posted earlier this week about Richard Herring’s fabulous takedown of this troll who asked if he was a ‘woke tosspot comedian’.

Well it’s time to return to the world of Herring – twice in a week! – after the comedian took the time with another troll and, while this one is more of a slow burner, it’s no less satisfying for it.

Once again we being here, after the great @Herring1967 expressed unexpected anxiety about a return to the stage after three months away.

Looking forward to this but feel like I’ve forgotten every bit of stand up I’ve ever done, including my latest show! Hopefully I can knock something together! https://t.co/Sj94HgzrYH

And it prompted this response from @billiousbob who, it turns out bit off just a little bit more than they could chew.

De nada Richie, everyone who saw you has forgotten too, or at least tried to, with therapy…..

Ooo, he’s back for me. And twice as witty this time. Was the “with therapy” overkill on an otherwise subtle punchline. No. It was good. But wait if everyone has forgotten me how does he know if I was funny or not? I think this logical paradox has spoiled the roast for me. 3/10 https://t.co/PQPkujP2DP

Though what a comedy super power. Every time you die the audience forgets you and then you can return the next week with the same set, for again, get paid, never lose a booking! Have you played here before? No first time. Ha ha ha ha! https://t.co/PWeWyY1tUx

I appreciate your interest in me, but for every comedian it is necessary and essential that you don’t appeal to everyone. And there are people you don’t want to appeal to. So thanks mate. It really helps. Now go and tell someone you like that you like them. You’ll be happier too

I would Rich but as you well know our mutual friend Mr Lee doesn’t frequent Twitter, he doesn’t need the vicarious validation it provides others…..
