Hot Slut Of The Day!
Hershey’ Thingamajig!
Auto-spell’s least favorite candy bar Whatchamacallit first made its way into mouths in 1978 when Hershey’s first started selling it. If you have an amazing diet like me, then you know that Whatchamacallit is still around today since you’re eating one along with your well-balanced breakfast of microwaved sausage and orange juice mixed with potato nectar (aka vodka). Whatchamacallit is layers of caramel and peanut-flavored crisps wrapped in a chocolate. Whatchamacallit has always been one of my favorites, because crisps in a candy bar have always done things to me. Crisps are the hard 8″ dick of candy bar ingredients: everybody loves ’em! And if you’re shaking your head like “no,” then I hate to break it to you, but your mouth and tastebuds are lying to you.
Because Whatchamacallit became a hit, Hershey’s decide to make and sell its second cousin. In 2009, Thingamajig was born. That name has convinced me that Ariel the Little Mermaid is VP of Candy Bar Names at Hershey’s. Hershey’s really switched shit up with Thingamajig. Instead of being made up of peanut flavored crisps and a caramel layer like Whatchamacallit, Thingamajig was made up of peanut butter cream and cocoa flavored crisps. Revolutionary!
Thingamajig was limited-edition, but Hershey’s brought it back in 2011 and it was supposed to stay on candy shelves forever, but a year later it was gone. That’s sad because I never got to taste a Thingamajig. But we all know what happened here. Whatchamacallit was obviously scared that Thingamajig would steal its shine, so it knocked that bitch off the shelves.
And well, since we’re on the subject of Whatchamacallit, here’s the commercial and the jingle that was one of my favorite songs in the 80s.
I know, this is supposed to be a tribute to Thingamajig, and yet I post a Whatchamacallit commercial. Poor Thingamajig, still the Basement Baby to Whatchamacallit’s Beyonce after all these years.
