UK comedian Joe Lycett described how he received ‘feedback’ from a ‘fan’ at a show last week.
The viewer sent a drunken email to Lycett describing his show as ‘shit’ and referring to him as a ‘dick’.

And unfortunately, Lycett happened to appear on a popular TV show where he shared a redacted version of the email to millions of viewers, revealing that the solicitor works for a Burnley-based law firm.
“You’re not even remotely funny,” the email read.
“Here’s some advice, find another job!”
