Other popular products that have been people’s favourite for long, soon chipped in. While some seemed jealous and jocularly claimed the company of “cheating”, others began to rant — garnering all the attention on the platform. As the company came up with creative replies to pacify those feeling left out, people on Twitter seemed to be having the last laugh. The hilarious thread also saw #JustChippingIn briefly trending on Twitter.
“Were you ever committed or were those days just cheat days? ” wrote one digestive biscuit saying that it thought it will always remain their “first choice”.

But what really stole the show was original Good Day’s reply. Asking all others to stop bickering, it tweeted savagely: “Hey guys let’s stop chipping away at each other. I mean….that’s what appraisal meetings are for”. It extended its support to the new member to the team and quipped: “And if you play nice, there might be a bonus in it for all of us”
I agree!
