Inspired by a viral tweet from 2015, Lucy aimed to replicate the same experiment with her father. After securing the Cheez-It above a picture frame, she began documenting the duration of her dad’s oblivion. On December 6, 2015, she tweeted, “Day 10, and it’s still there! Stay tuned to see how long it’ll take for my dad to notice.” Days turned into months, and on April 3, 2016, despite rearranging furniture around the wall, her dad failed to see the snack.
As time passed, Lucy shared updates, lamenting, “Day 173 and my dad is still oblivious… and honestly, I forgot about it too. This is sad,” on May 17, 2016. A year slipped by with no awareness from her father. By day 383, she began to wonder if the Cheez-It would eventually rot. It did, prompting her to replace it occasionally.
By Christmas 2017, over two years into the gag, Lucy gifted her dad a box of Cheez-Its, hoping he might catch on. However, he remained unaware. Even after moving out, she kept the prank alive. “Day 1,001!!!! Wow!!! My stepmom sent me this pic, and I’m shocked and disgusted that it’s lasted this long! People tell me they think of the Cheez-It when they see me! It’s sad that this is my legacy!”
Finally, after 1,410 days, the gag came to an abrupt end when her brother-in-law inadvertently revealed the secret to her dad. “It is with great sadness that I must announce the gag is up,” she tweeted. “Thank you to everyone who supported the Cheez-It and me throughout the years. I’m just as disappointed as you all are.”
In a world where the tiniest details often slip by unnoticed, this Cheez-It story serves as a humorous reminder that sometimes, dads really don’t pay attention to certain things.
