10 Modern 'Elf On The Shelf' Memes
Elf on the Shelf is a classic meme format that reappears every December. It's based on a common tradition in which families put a small decorative elf figurine on a shelf near the Christmas tree, sometimes claiming the elf is "watching the kids" to make sure they're being well-behaved enough for a visit with Santa. Due to the popularity of the Elf on the Shelf memes, the Elf on the Shelf custom seems to have increased in use as well.
The meme isn't usually based on the loveable (or sometimes ominous) little creature itself, but rather on the rhyme within its name. Similar to "Elf on the Shelf," people began putting objects or people "on" other objects or people in order to create a different rhyme, which many fans of the meme enjoy guessing at. Here, we've collected some of the best recent Elf on the Shelf memes for you to enjoy this classic format just in time for the holiday season.
