More than 80 people had the exact wrong answer – it was NOT correct tape, but we picked 2 at random to be winners:

It is a correction tape dispenser - Bill Chambers

A lot of 'whale' answers. We picked two at random:

It’s a Beluga whale squirt toy. Carole Marciano

A lot of answers invovled some sort of car, we picked one at random:

Model of the newest self driving car. -Ian Winkler

WINNERS (Who live in the U.S.& I’ll try to send to Canada) get the August 2022 issue of MAD. Even though MAD moved to LA in December 2017 I’m continuing the WTHII game and sending out MAD magazines to winners since so many people say they love to play it. Winners of MAD magazine are for US addresses only, although I have been able to send MAD magazine to some locations in Canada. If you win and live in the US or Canada, email me your full name & address and put MAD WINNER in the subject so I can pick it out easily. I’ll autograph your MAD with your first name & my name unless you specify “Dick’s name only”. If you’d rather have one of those 40+ year old Alfred E. Neuman pictures, instead of the MAD magazine, put “SEND ALFRED PIC NOT MAD” in the subject line. Soon, they will be no more of those either. The remaining Alfred E pics were shipped to MAD in LA. If you won more than once using different names, please just ask for one MAD. If you live anywhere outside of the US & Canada email me with WINNER in the subject line and I’ll autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email it to you. You can print it out & no one should know the difference. (I’ve done it quite a few times already and people say the photo looks great.)

Here's The New May/June 2022 "What The Heck Is It?" Gadget!

Do you know 'what the heck it is'? To play, come up with the right answer, or make up a silly, or inventive answer that we find funny or clever that describes the gizmo shown. We give away up to 18 autographed copies of MAD Magazine. (Up to 6 for the correct answer, up to 12 for cute, silly answers.)

You'll be playing for the August 2022 issue of MAD, produced by the now, tiny (it's down to two people!) LA MAD staff. Remember cute or clever wrong answers can win too! Please be sure to put " WTHII" in the subject line so we can pick it out quickly.

The judges have very small attention spans, so make sure entries are no more than 25 words, and please make just one guess per entry. You must sign your entry with a nickname, screen name, fake name, or even real name, but sign it! If it's not signed, it's not eligible. E-mail your entry to gizwizbiz@gmail.com by midnight (ET) July 1 2022. By entering you agree this is a game for fun and laughs. Winning answers are published on this website the 1st or 2nd of July 2022, so come back to see if you won. Because like MAD, we're really low budget here, we can only mail winning copies to United States & some Canada addresses. Please don't answer on this website; it won't count. Good Luck! Winners outside the US & Canada can have a now 40 year old Alfred E. Neuman photo autographed to them, scanned and emailed to them. Again, sign your entry with something or it won't count.
