Alright, we’re doing another Funny Human of the Week. I like this guy, former Chicagoan/current New Yorker Will Miles! He was a local favorite when he lived here in Chicago a few years ago and has been killing it on the NY scene ever since. Let’s get into it:
So smart but so laid back, you know? Like, he does drugs but isn’t a drug guy, which is always nice. Give it a rest, drug guys. Let’s watch another clip. More drugtales!
As mentioned in the first clip we watched, Will is something of a Romantic Comedy expert. He compiled this knowledge into a personal essay for Thought Catalog a few months ago. It’s really funny and STARTS with a story about a woman who does so much cocaine she makes BM in her pants.
Mr. Will Miles is an underfollowed Twitterer, sitting just shy of 1,600 followers. Here’s why that’s a shame:
Thought a woman was being catcalled on the train. Was gonna say something but then she left and he kept singing improv R&B to the seat

The other day I saw a cat climb out of an air conditioner. Then it walked around like nothing was weird. We should all strive to be that cat — Will Miles (@MrWillMiles) September 29, 2014
I would describe my style as Carlton Banks if all of Will Smith’s ridicule finally got to him.

“Hey let’s leave this private model party with all this liquor. Those regular dudes outside have a $4.99 case of Pepsi!” –commercials

Let’s fix that, okay? Go follow Will once we’re done here.
To finish things off for another week, here’s his appearance on one of my favorite Chicago-based webseries, “What Am I Looking At?,” which follows comics on a classy night out on the town, hopping from art gallery to art gallery. They sing Hootie, read wall poetry, and end up doing standup at a weird art party. Fuuuun!
