What Your Favorite Twin Says About You
Today’s Twinkie Town post is one of my favorites, ever.
In the interest of staying topical, I usually make jokes about current events, and so what I write ends up being sort of broad satire – poking fun at people, really. Generally, the broader the target, the more people like the post, and that’s fine. There’s something for everyone and if I’m trying to be humorous then my job is done.
Today’s post, titled “What Your Favorite Twin Says About You,” isn’t satire. It’s not truthful and in no way does it hold up a mirror to the Twins organization, and a lot of it doesn’t even make sense. But it makes me laugh. I can’t explain the jokes and I can’t explain why I laugh, but I do.
If you want something more traditional, today’s game thread has a short essay about Yankees hurler A. J. Burnett, and the recap of the Twins’ loss is one long joke about this being a spring-training lineup. But I like the first one better.
