Just realised I posted this in the wrong thread, although I guess it is a terrible thing that’s happened.
My mum bought one for Jimbo and we told her that we didn’t want it. I don’t want him being paranoid about what he’s up to and to think he’s being spied on. He should be learning about doing right and wrong for the right reasons, not because he thinks he’ll do better at Christmas as a result.
Elf on a shelf surely can’t be considered any kind of tradition! Anything that wasn’t a thing a few years ago surely can’t be a tradition
I was unaware of it until last year when there was all those ‘you’ve heard of elf on the shelf now here’s…’ memes and I had no idea what was going on.
Only ever heard of it on here
Still don’t really know what it is
Clue’s in the name mate
This is brilliant though
Being 46, I hear this a lot from my peers, and it boils my piss every time.
The kids in my class suggested we get an elf on the shelf and I said no obviously #scrooge
It’s a great reply, but it means we’re talking about Piers Morgan again, so he’s got exactly what he wants. Could we have a Morgan-only thread and set it so that nobody can read it?
I agree with you on that one for sure. I hate pop snobbery.
“let someone cut ahead of you in (a/the) line”
Over my fucking dead body. Not while there is breath in my lungs or the tiniest flicker of pulse in my veins will I let any fucker queue jump.
Is this a wind up?
I really can’t tell.
They’re serious!!
They’re likening it to using racist, homophobic and ableist language!!
I can’t tell either
people are so annoying
that’s insane, it’s a totally different kettle of dish
