The best moments come out of the situation, though. Like my favorite part in Swingers

"How about if I wait six weeks to call. I could tell her I found her number while I was cleaning out my wallet, I can't remember where we met. I'll ask her what she looks like and then I'll ask her if we fucked. How about that? Would that be money?"

It is much funnier in context than it is just by itself. But since you know the characters so well, and because the joke has been set up by the whole movie up to that point it is much mopre effective. One of the problems with many comedies today is that it's just a collection of one-liners. Comedy has to come out of character to be funny. (End of comedy rant)
