A 1985 performance by Steven Wright. Droll, dead-pan one-liners delivered rapid-fire. His humor twists things around and requires some assembly, but he gives you the parts, and asks the questions.
“Why is the alphabet in that order? Is it because of that song?”
He sometimes comes across a bit like a sad Art Garfunkel. He was born in Cambridge, MA, and got his start in the Boston comedy clubs. This performance is from his first HBO special, just after he released his first album.
He’s pretty clean, but the usual warning applies. Funny is different to different people. Watch at your own risk. Adults only.
