To think this is fucking ridiculous! (Photos)

Surely the creator of this needs to take a long hard look in the mirror and wonder where it all went wrong!

This is a lot funnier than the Elf on the Shelf business.

I fucking hate fucking elf on the fucking shelf. This first came out when mine were small (we never got sucked in) but I am sure it was just for the children to find the fucking elf, not all these "I'm a better and more fun parent than you" crazeee type of shite

A waste of paper and resources.
No wonder this planet is on its knees with people generating waste like this.

mathanxiety I LOVE the dinosaurs. Proper laughed out loud at the painting one and the fruit bowl where one of them has a whole banana sticking out of its mouth .has tickled me no end this morning

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.......

I don't understand this elf on the shelf, why are they naughty? I much prefer the old men elves in Santa Claus the movie

Oh thank god I'm not the only one who hasn't lost the plot who can see this for what it is... an excessive, wasteful, unnecessary, likes farming, sheeple-ish, pitiful waste of time.

each to their own

I wrapped an entire bedroom once. Won't post the picture because it will out me but it went viral.

There were 2 of us left at uni till 23rd December because of work, but we were only working 4 hour shifts each day= a lot of time to fill. We used 16 rolls of wrapping paper (3 for £1 from card factory). Yes it was wasteful but it distracted us from the fact that everyone else was at home with their families and we weren't. We sent a picture to the guy who's room it was and he sent it on to a friend who then put it on her blog and it escalated from there, we did it purely to a) piss him off and b) give us something to do.

What a waste of time and money.

I have never understood the elf on the shelf carry on.

We have elves (one per child) and they full the reusable advent calendar and give the children a Christmas activity to do that day

Tidy the playroom so that the Decs can go up
Write Cards
Write letters to santa
Sort out old toys for charity

other jobs that are somehow a treat when the elves say it and a huge bind when I ask

they also bring hot chocolate or Popcorn for a film night when I think they could do with down time

I do not understand the logic of elves that are naughty grassing up kids to santa what mixed up arse backwards message does that send?

Oh and the elves we have are not the scary plastic ones

Those elf on a shelf things look demonic.

So much hate for the stupid elf. Glad it wasn't around when the DCs were little. Wouldn't have been suckered in anyway.

A waste of paper and resources.
No wonder this planet is on its knees with people generating waste like this.

This 1000 times, this kind of bollocks and the attitude of "So what, it's only paper" , "If they can afford it" ...etc etc are the real first world problems, not that "I spilt my coffee on my kindle" type wankery.

I thought it was one of those Magic Eye things and was crossing my eyes trying to see the reindeer or whatever appear.

I hate wrapping presents, so just looking at this makes me feel utterly exhausted!

It's the sort of thing my husband would do. I found it funny, although not keen on the Shelf Elf thing.

MotherF - you're right. The elf just used to hide in unusual places. Ie. On the curtain rail etc.

That looks exhausting tbh. Fuck that. Wrapping the presents was more than enough!! also I don't buy into that fucking stupid elf thing

Ah you miserable lot! I don't even go in for elf on the shelf but even I find that quite amusing! My eldest would find it funny (she is 14) and the youngest (almost 2) would have a field day ripping the paper off while giggling!

I don't even wrap the actual Christmas presents (that's DH's job) so fuck this for a game of soldiers!

At first i thought it was protective plastic covering for a major golden showers party. Wtf

Now we know where your mind goes when idle (I thought similar when I first saw it )

I....don't get it.
