So, my ghostwriter hands me this note with just one line - "first line." I'm thinking, "Wow, they've discovered the secret to minimalism in comedy." Forget about elaborate setups and intricate punchlines; just give them the essence, the very first line. It's like comedy haiku - five, seven, five, laughter. But imagine if life worked that way. You walk into a job interview, and the interviewer says, "Tell me about yourself," and you're like, "Existence is pain." Or you go on a date, and the first thing you say is, "I have issues." It's efficient, I'll give it that. Saves time, gets straight to the point. Maybe we should all adopt this minimalist approach in life - just the first line, and let people fill in the blanks.

So, I'm handed this note that just says "first line." I'm starting to think my ghostwriter is a frustrated abstract artist. Maybe they're trying to revolutionize comedy with this avant-garde approach. You know, we're all used to setup, setup, punchline, but they're like, "No, let's strip it down to its essence - the first line." I imagine a comedy club where every comedian just comes on stage and says their first line, and the audience is left pondering the meaning of it all. It's like comedy meets existential crisis. "Why did the chicken cross the road?" Well, that's the first line; figure out the rest yourself. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure joke, but you never really get to the adventure part.

Alright, so I got handed this note, just one line - "first line." That's it. I'm thinking, "Great, did my ghostwriter just forget to finish the joke or is this some avant-garde comedy where I'm supposed to make 'first line' the punchline? So here we are, the first line of my set, and I'm thinking, "Is this the punchline? Are we done here?" It's like going to a restaurant and the waiter hands you a menu that just says "food." Yeah, I know it's food; that's why I'm here! It's like saying, "Welcome to the comedy show; here's the first line, now laugh!" But hey, at least we got that out of the way. Now we can move on to the second line, which is hopefully funnier.

So, I have this ghostwriter, right? They send me this note, and I'm like, "Great, let's see what hilarious material they've cooked up for me." And what do I get? "First line." I mean, come on! Is that a cry for help? Did they accidentally send me their shopping list? "Milk, eggs, bread, first line." It's like having a personal chef cook you a gourmet meal, and the first dish is an empty plate. I'm just sitting there thinking, "Wow, the emptiness really brings out the nothingness of the flavors." I asked them for a joke, not a philosophical statement. Maybe they're onto something - maybe comedy is just a series of disconnected lines, and we're all waiting for the punchline that never comes.
