My 3rd grade teacher told me I had a "great way of ruining things for people." Now I do comedy. My debut album is available now: https://album.link/danwilbur
My debut comedy album Husband Material is available to buy or stream now!
It’s a clean 45 minutes of my best jokes about marriage, NYC, Cleveland, and old video games!

This photo is incredible. You can see the idea percolating in his mind. “Why has no one thought of this. The answer is right in front of us. I will say it. I’ll be the hero we need.”
In 7th grade, my friends and I convinced a large number of students to put the name “Heywood Jablome” in the school raffle and when the principal read the name in the gym, we all screamed for five straight minutes. Everyone got a detention. That’s how Twitter feels now.
I want to remind you that statues aren’t history books and that taking one down isn’t erasing history. It’s more like finally taking a Sublime poster off your wall. It’s over. Let’s move on.
The funniest thing about the new Joker trailer is that if I saw a bunch of clowns wreaking havoc in the NYC subway, my first reaction would be “ugh. I guess there’s some fucking clown thing today.”
It’s time to come clean. I moved out of NYC six months ago because of the massive crime wave: landlords conspiring to charge everyone $4,000 for a 1-bedroom.
As another COVID surge hits this country, I beg of you not to write pieces blaming 20-year-olds who would like to see their friends since nearly every problem we're experiencing is a result of this country being run by 70-year-old ghouls and their constituents who are even older.
An ex used to text me “Fuck you” if I didn’t reply fast enough to a message. It always made me feel horrible. I’d be coming out of a movie with friends, I’d look at my phone, and my day would be ruined. Anyway, that’s the role Twitter plays in my life now.
I’m not arguing that an AR-15 isn’t fun to shoot but why do you need 5 in your living room? Go to a range. I love giraffes but there are rules about raising one in my yard. I have to go to a zoo whenever I want to fuck one.
Fun little follow-up: The attached high school’s vice principal was more of a martinet and was called in to chastise us. Later that year she was arrested for crack possession. Ohio decides the balance of power in this country.
Greta Thunberg is going to be photographed somewhere eating Jerry’s pizza during Tate’s arraignment and I’m going to get the photo printed on a t-shirt
I heard on the news we all need to be mentally prepared to stay home for a whole month if the coronavirus gets any worse. So... fingers crossed, I guess?
I’m sorry The New York Post made you scared of the subway, but a vote for Lee Zeldin is a vote to require funerals for unborn fetuses in New York. Have a nice day.
It’s crazy to me that people leave Yelp reviews for hiking trails. “If you like nature, I guess it’s OK. 3 stars.” or “TOOK MUSHROOMS HERE AND THEN SAW A ROCK THAT LOOKED LIKE MY EX’S FACE. DAY RUINED. BAD VIBES!! 0 STARS!!!”
There’s a quarry in Fallout 4 that references the flashing time travel episodes of Lost and if you go down the hole they’re drilling, in keeping with the plot of the show, there’s a mini nuke down there.
“Stop playing politics with people’s lives” says man who let people a bunch of people get AIDS because it would look bad to give them clean needles. #VPDebate
Continuing my own research on the mRNA vaccine by getting it three times and not suffering from severe COVID when I finally caught it. Will keep you updated.
10,000 cases in New York State (that we know of). At the beginning of the month there was one in NYC. One.
Please live AS IF YOU ALREADY HAVE IT. No more “if you’re sick, stay home” bullshit. You’re sick. Assume you’re spreading it to others until there’s an antibodies test.
“Then Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish and gave them to one guy who had just eaten, and said ‘I trust this guy to let some of the food trickle down to the rest of you.’”
do was when a guy in the front said he represents police officers in court and all Patton said was “best of luck” and moved on. Later in the set, mid-bit, you could hear sirens outside the theater. He turned to the guy: “Another client!”
We’re cancelling a female comic and an entire comedy network over a minute of standup but that dude who jerks off in front of his colleagues deserves 10-15 more chances.
I once tagged Disney on Instagram pretending they had commissioned a weird drawing I made, and I was banned from all monetization on the platform for a year. Good luck, Ron!
I was checking to see if a burrito place near me had good reviews and the photos of the place look dingy and the food looks greasy and they serve it in styrofoam and when I clicked their website I got a 404 error. This is going to be the best food I’ve ever tasted.
Breaking News: The White House is said to have blocked a CDC effort to require face coverings on airplanes, trains, buses and in travel hubs. https://nyti.ms/36OgmWw
Is the dude saying “are you fucking kidding me?” ending his friendship with the beer-thrower? Or was he complaining about the show still?? I hope it’s the former
Jo and I were in Improv 101, and there was a senior citizen in the class who did not really get anything we were doing. I saw Jo on the street months later and she was on her way to the movies with that lady because they’d been “hanging out a lot.” This was in 2011. https://t.co/63CmKuJHWx
While you’re here: read Bill Bryson’s At Home. His writing is delightful and it will make you less bored while you make your salt and pepper shakers talk to each other. Order it from
Hey, what do you think they want to charge though? I’m sorry to exaggerate but yesterday I thought landlords were sitting on 65,000 vacant rent-stabilized apartments but then I read today is that the number is 88,000. The joke is that this is the big crime in nyc. Hope this helps
8 years ago, I made an appointment at my dentist and under “what do you wish to be called?” I wrote “The Chosen One” and forgot about it.
Today, I overheard the receptionist say: “Please let the doctor know The Chosen One is here.” They’ve been using it this whole time.
The last time a Top Gun movie was in theaters, Air Force enlistment went up 500%. No one thinks they’re going to be Goose! That’s what’s wrong with dudes.
I miss the good old days when political demographics were “Soccer Moms” and “NASCAR Dads” instead of “White Supremacist Bunker Survivalists” and “Nazi Bikers Who Used to Freelance at Infowars.”
Hi, friends. I'm recording an album on Thursday, December 8th @QEDAstoria. If you enjoy comedy, you will enjoy this show. If you don't enjoy comedy, you'll still probably enjoy it. Either way, I'd love to see you there.

When I’m near the end of a bottle of body wash, I can make a few drops miraculously last for 8 showers like it’s Menorah oil, then when I start a new bottle I’m doing full squeezes like it’s never going to run out. Anyway, this is the same way I am with money.
