Do any of y'all terrorize your kids/grandkids with this thing. Gives me the creeps.

We pretty much just kept it straight and narrow with the fat guy routine.?ÿ A figurine of Sheldon Cooper dressed as an elf is too far out there even for me.

I was personally terrorized as a child by the department store Santa.?ÿ Don't really remember what the deal was...I just couldn't get within 15' of him without going stark-raving-mad.?ÿ I still don't care much for people in Santa outfits, but I do understand and respect the tradition.

To me Christmas is so much more than Santa and reindeer.?ÿ Yeah, I know...bah humbug on ol' Paden.?ÿ 😉

Earlier this evening Mrs. Cow showed me a pic on Facebook of a common household bathroom stool with both the lid and seat in the upright position.?ÿ A little doll Grinch was standing atop the seat holding an upside down Elf on the Shelf by his feet.?ÿ His plan was to dump him and flush him.

When I was a kid we didn't need Elf on a Shelf to make sure we behaved around Christmas.?ÿ We had Belt on a Shelf to make sure we behaved the whole year through.

A razor strop is equally effective.?ÿ My sister was more likely to discover its rehabilitative effects than me as I learned early by watching.

The Nunƒ??s would just grab anything handy to pummel you with and, buddy, getting a blackboard eraser full of yellow chalk pounded on your head ainƒ??t fun. And then itƒ??s home for more fun from your parents. ?????ÿ
