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 April 2024 issue of MAD, produced by the new, tiny (it’s down to two people!) LA MAD staff. And Yes, I should be in it. (I don’t know for sure because that issue is still being put together by MAD Art Director, Suzy Hutchinson.

Remember cute or clever wrong answers can win too! Please be sure to put ” WTHII” in the subject line of your email 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,  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. Email your entry to gizwizbiz@gmail.com  by midnight (EST) February 28, 2024. By entering you agree this is a game for fun and laughs. Winning answers are published on this website the 1st or 2nd of March 2024, 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.

WINNERS Who live in the U.S. (I’ll try to send to Canada) get the February 2024 MAD issue! MAD moved to LA in December 2017 but 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 & 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 prize. 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 a high res image 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.)
