Offthemat Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I like twinkies, they taste good and don’t require as much milk as chocolate cupcakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDole Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Marketing is different and they haven't adjusted for the times. My kid knows more about a "sports" drink pushed by a YouTube douche than what a Twinkie is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most everyone else's order is the same, but they are 2-4 with '1' being something along the lines of 'Willie bought a stake in Hostess so he could get free Twinkies.' 1 1 "I know actually nothing.

Lipdrag Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I feared it was a topic using the word "Twinkies" as a slur. I was trying to place Twinkies in the constellation of normal words used as an insider insult which I do not know including Duece and 30 percenter. The fact that it is about actual Twinkies which I have eaten many times and never remember enjoying - even as a kid - is refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
