What about the Twinkie?


I’ve spent pretty much the whole weekend writing. Really making a big effort to nail the dialog in my comedy. Set ‘em up - knock ‘em down. Clever lead ins, misdirection, BOOM - punch line.


So the wife’s in there watching a Ghost Busters rerun. What’s one of the funniest lines in the whole movie?


Bill Murray deadpans "What about the Twinkie?"


The line itself isn’t funny at all. But the delivery...


All I can do is try.
