To really dislike elf on the shelf

[LostInTheTunnelOfGoats]

Honestly, my FB is full of pictures of these little shits. All called Elfy or Jumpy or fucking Pudding or some shit.

They make my skin crawl. I get a really creepy uncanny valley reaction to them. Clowns and doll type things don't bother me, but these elves look as though they'll suck out your soul during the night. It's their manic looking eyes and their weird cheeks. Setting up cute little tableux with the elf and little Jenson's Star Wars figures does not make the thing any less creepy.

I'm going to have to temporarily come off FB to avoid the sight of the malevolent little shits in jaunty hats hanging off people's shelves.

OP I think I love you or you're inside my head. It's the elf enablers I blame. Who would invite the little monsters into the house in the first place? Worst of all why post it all over social media?

Someone I know told their kid they couldn't have one in the house as legend has it that during the night the little blighters use your toothbrush to clean their bum . The child was put off for life-mission accomplished
I say!

Little shits hahahahhahahaha

Ffs

I'm with you on that one Lost. They look permanently surprised in an almost constipated yet eccentric and seriously neurotic way. Why would anyone want those freaky little weebles popping up randomly around their home; what a way to give your kid nightmares and future elf phobias! They look like Pinocchio gone wrong after a demonic possession. The 'I wanna be a real boy/elf' creepy shenanigans don't wash with me!

I Unfollow anyone who does the Elf. You can always choose to Follow again later.

Dont get it tooo or the xmas eve boxes people seemed to be doing now. Didnt hear about it till this year. New thing?

They are! They're bloody spooky.

They enslave you for life too. Like David Bowie as the goblin king in Labyrinth, only without the crotch candy.

Case in point, my friend is on year 3 of Happy the fucking Killer Elf and she regrets EVER starting it, only now her kids have been possessed insist on it. So she's stuck making tiny elf tracks in flour across the kitchen island for the next 10 years

My DS thinks it's freaky, the way it's eyes look took the side, like it's slowly going to turn it's head towards you, all the while grinning....

YANBU. I fucking hate bloody elf on the shelf.

Dodgey fuckers

Evil bastards

I saw an inspired one on Facebook - with a broken leg and instructions not to move for a couple of weeks

This came up on my Facebook. Someone forgot their elf was hiding in the oven.

Put them all in the oven! Creepy, annoying trend.

The melted elf on the shelf is awesome. I'd keep using it our of badness!

On FB I saw a pic of a Barbie doll in a drawer and the caption read, ‘whore in a drawer’. That me lol.
