Woah, my name is also Chris D'Elia. I'm yet to meet or hear of anyone else with it as well. I nearly had a heart attack when it said I was doing an AMA.
My question is, are you a Christopher or a Christian?
Geniemist98 karma
Would you rather…Change gender every time you sneeze? Or not be able to tell the difference between a muffin and a baby?
Chris_Delia316 karma
I mean, that's the worst question I have ever heard in my life.
I would choose the muffin baby thing because they are both so delicious.
Chris_Delia167 karma
No. But that's because I shave it every night when I go to bed when I wake up it's fully grown out again.

Can you please post more beautiful versions of songs on Vine? You have the voice of an angel.
Chris_Delia92 karma
I have the voice of a drunk, abusive angel. And I only do them when the songs play on the radio. I never set it up. I always just record whatever comes on the radio.

What made you choose the username Bieberhole69?
In all seriousness one of my favourite Workaholics episodes of all time

Why is Bryan such a BKJ? Aside from him knowing s'little bout comedy that is.

When do you feel a grilled cheese stops being a grilled cheese with toppings and becomes a grilled sandwich with cheese. As in ratio of toppings to cheese, or types of toppings?
Chris_Delia91 karma
Because if somebody is making such a poor decision on something that's on their head, you should not trust their life advice.

Hey Chris D'Elia! Welcome to Reddit, and at the same time, I'm sorry:) I know this question is kinda personal, but Would you rather have sex with a goat and no one will ever know, or not have sex with a goat and have the whole world think you did? If you don't answer we will have to assume it's the first one..
Chris_Delia138 karma
I'd rather not have sex with a goat and just use that pain and suffering for my comedy and my act, that everyone thought I did. My next special would be "I swear I did not have sex with that goat."

CHRIS FUCKING D'ELIA YOU'RE MY IDOL. honestly though, just thank you for being so funny. your vines keep my friend and i entertained for days. also, your stand up bit about the deer being shot had me pee my pants...literally.
Chris_Delia82 karma
I hate when people interrupt my show. But when they do, I secretly want to ruin their night…with humor. At their expense. I never don't try to 100% completely humiliate them. #cute
Chris_Delia92 karma
If you were a real Chris D'Elia fan, you wouldn't even ask me that question.

Hi, Chris, I loved you on Whitney, you were awesome and I was so sorry to see the show go! I think you're hilarious! :) Silly questions:
- What makes you laugh?
- Are you ticklish? If so where and are your feet ticklish?
Hope this makes you smile, have a great Christmas! jo X
Chris_Delia108 karma
1 My family and when people hit their head
2 I am ticklish. The area I am most ticklish in is Sacramento.

Chris, making a sub sandwich right now... Provolone or swiss cheese?
boxjellee15 karma
Chris, one late night while home alone in the early days of high school I was scouring the HBO channels for softcore porn, and instead found your bit on Live Nude Comedy and it was hilarious. Just want to say I'm glad I discovered your stand up instead of watching Lord of the G-Strings for the 12th time, and I've been a fan ever since.
WizOfAwesSite14 karma
I remember watching your set from a while back at the Laugh Factory, when the weird couple interrupted making a bunch of strange noises.
Ever find out what happened to those two?
MikeJOC12 karma
Ay yo breh where yo beef with Drake at? It still runnin? Ain't worth sheete? Fill me in doe
Chris_Delia109 karma
You have a terrible command of the English language.
I like Drake's music. I always have. But he is just so easy to make fun of.
Doe.

If they were to make a movie about 10 Minute Podcast, obviously you and Will would play y'selves, but who would you recast as Bryan if Don Rickles weren't available?
Chris_Delia13 karma
He is busy in Primm right now and I'm pretty sure they don't get internet.
Chris_Delia18 karma
I do it so much that I don't even think about it. I just go onstage. I perform at least once a night.
Caitlynrob10 karma
Chris, you are by far my favorite comedian and I first heard about you on Conan a while back and thought you were hilarious so I told people to follow you on vine an twitter and shit. I also bought a s'cute shirt and I wear it with pride. I'm also a fan of TMP and you are my favorite but shh. Hehe.
Chris_Delia21 karma
my top 5 movies are
Swingers Husbands by John Cassavetes Mulholland Drive Eyes Wide Shut American Animal
Chris_Delia69 karma
They piss and shit in the house a lot. I would tell you which one I like more but they are looking at the computer screen right now and both can read.
Their names are Sam and Butters.
Butters just shit on the keyboard.
privateeyela8 karma
In your standup you say you say you performed at a bar way deep in the valley and pissed off a lady. What's the name of that bar?
indecisiveprick8 karma
No question, just want to let you know that your deer impression is impeccable.
Chris_Delia48 karma
Favorite books are The Catcher in the Rye and Ham on Rye. I only read books with Rye in the title.
I don't listen to podcasts because they are all 7 hours long. That's why I made the 10 minute podcast.
Chris_Delia28 karma
Fuck no. They would have to pay me A LOT of money to promote shit for them or their sponsors. Hehehehehe. NEVERNOTCUTE
JSturty455 karma
How much of your standup comedy is improv on the stage? Do you start with a general idea and build based on the audience or is it all pretty well scripted?
Chris_Delia18 karma
I start with an idea and work it out on stage. I don't write my stuff down.
Chris_Delia23 karma
It was seven minutes long. And I was so nervous that I wore a hole in the carpet walking back and forth before the show.
It went well. But I saw video of it years later and I couldn't even get through watching it.
asteroidb612_sarah5 karma
How did you get s'cute? Also, I'm a deliever…do we have meetings or some shit?
Chris_Delia32 karma
Why don't you spearhead the meetings? I'll come. And then I'm s'cute because I understand what cute is. I don't try to be cute.
Cute for real.
Cute for life.
Cute til six men carry me.
NEVERNOTCUTE.

When Mirrors by Justin Timberlake gets stuck in my head, it's stuck in my head sung by your voice. Why?

Have you and Whitney Cummings ever hooked up? Be hooooooonest. She's hot
Cakeman94 karma
Last night, I tweeted at you saying you were the funniest person on Earth. For one second, by favouriting my tweet you acknowledged my existence, so thanks for that.
yoshmeister4 karma
How funny is Whitney Cummings really? Because she seems hilarious. Please let her be hilarious in real life!
pajafa4 karma
Do you and Comedy Central pick one of the two shows you performed for your special or mix bits from both?
Chris_Delia11 karma
It's mostly from the second one. But we used a few parts from the first show.
willabtsm4 karma
Why do you appear somewhat ghetto and unintelligent and slangy in some comedy performances on YouTube but pretty intelligent in your vines and other videos?
Chris_Delia19 karma
I guess I don't know what you're talking about. I'm always messing around and having fun. So maybe you're just catching my vibeeeeeees brooooo.
IAmClaytonBigsby3 karma
Was there ever a time that you almost gave up comedy? If so, what happened?
Chris_Delia12 karma
I can honestly say that there was never a time when I remotely thought about that.
Johnnystan69238 karma
Chris, I'm disappointed your username isn't BeiberHole69.
