Elf on a shelf

Postby John *.?-!.* cub owner » Fri Dec 28, 2018 9:10 pm

I have seen these, and wonder if they may make kids paranoid, it sure would an old geezer like me that remembers George Orwell's novel 1984 paranoid. I think something that would do a better job of keeping kids in line would be Grouch on the Couch.

There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Barnyard's picture was taken just after Rosie told him he could only have 50 Cubs. :lol:
