![]() Most certainly the most obscure reference in a joke aimed at children. I don’t even have anything much to say about the answer, what is there to say? That is quite possible the most obscure reference I have ever seen in a joke. is either some sort of savant child, or just some grown up weirdo sending in questions to see your partial name on a Laffy Taffy wrapper. you jerk, you had to spell Joseph Haydn’s name wrong just to make your joke work. Even still, how is ANY child supposed to get that reference, let alone offer it up as an answer? Besides, John S. I only sort of know that name, however I could never tell you his name from memory. ![]() He was fiddling around? He tuned out? I even stretched and went with, He never came Bach.Įventually, I realized I couldn’t find an answer I was satisfied with, so I peeked at the answer: I tried thinking of different music-related reasons for someone being missing. It was the second question that created the whirlwind of chaos. You fooled me with a pun that relied on an incorrectly spelled key word. I tried thinking of farm related words that could be used in a humorous way to describe a farmer, and no amount of homonyms seemed to do the trick. While the first question wasn’t that out of the ordinary, I wasn’t able to answer it. Imagine my surprise when what I thought would be a routine Laffy Taffy eating experience turned into a mind blowing experience that shook me to my core. I don’t have the patience for crossword puzzles, and word searches always seemed like rote busywork, so this is one of the better low-tech ways I have found to kill time. I enjoy Laffy Taffy wrappers for both the ironic approach of appreciating the awful jokes, as well as the opportunity to figure out the punch line. ![]() I assume my response to reading one of those gut busters would be, “… Oh.” I can’t even imagine laughing at these jokes as a child. The reason for this is, shockingly, because the jokes on Laffy Taffy wrappers tend to be terrible. I often compare bad humor to a Laffy Taffy wrapper. However, to discuss the taste of Laffy Taffy is to miss the point. ![]() That said, a good flavor of Laffy Taffy is always enjoyable. I expect this article to get cited in some sort of History Channel documentary in the coming weeks. So watermelon Tangy Taffy has just been proven to actually be better than manna from Heaven. Except instead of being bland manna, it is instead a delicious, somewhat chewy and somewhat tough treat that is the candy equivalent to eating the middle of a Friendly’s Wattamelon Roll. The watermelon Tangy Taffy with the chocolate chip seeds is like manna from Heaven. Watermelon shouldn’t have to slum with the rest of the Laffy rabble. But since watermelon Laffy Taffy is so much different and so much better than all the other flavors, the distinction must be made. I don’t know what happened, I’m assuming whoever used to make Laffy Taffy was crushed in Wonka’s iron fist, but I’m not going to research the details. ![]() Tangy Taffy used to be separate from Laffy Taffy, but now they are produced under the Laffy Taffy name. If Airheads are disqualified, then Tangy Taffy takes the prize. If Airheads count as taffy (and I don’t think they do), I certainly give them the nod for best in show. At the same time, it is certainly one of the weaker mass produced taffy products. I would specify that this actually isn’t that rare of an occurrence, but I’m sure anyone who has read this site with any regularity already knows this. So I am sitting at work, eating Laffy Taffy. ![]()
