Must be a camera in it.

Even the polar opposite of Big Brother is spying on you.

SANTA is the NSA and TSA combined.

We have a Mensch on the Bench in our house

Why does Pam’s son always wear that space suit?

I want an elf out in the vacuum of space.

saw a very creepy youtube video w/ elf on a shelf.

I have a cat on the couch, or the bookcase, or the TV, or the dresser.

NSA has access to smart phones (and a few kinds of flip phones) at any time when not totally powered off. They can turn on the camera – or more likely just the mic – whenever they want. The technical details were leaked by Snowden. Another whistleblower revealed that when not digging up dirt on politcal opponents, they are high tech peeping toms.

Outside we have a snoop on the stoop. Inside we have a teller in the cellar. If we had a snake, we could have a tattler that’s a rattler. Yep – took it too far.

Heard about this Elf on a shelf a few days ago. I think it is absolutely stupid, and a kinda scary! You want your kids to behave, teach them how, take responsibility for parenting. You wanted children, then put in the time and effort to foster decent human beings.

It must be a step up from a baby monitor; reporting to Pam when she down loads the recorded images and sound.

Parents love to manipulate and lie to their kids, don’t they? And then, with no trace of irony whatsover, turn around and tell them that lying is wrong.

Gotta cut back on lead time if ya wanna be topical. Snopes refuted the NSA Elf-on-the-Shelf rumor days ago.

No, seriously. Look it up.

NSA – The National Santa Association.

DuffleBlog beat you to it.
