Elf Bowling - On Christmas Eve, the elves go on strike for shorter working hours and longer smoke breaks. Santa's solution - knock them out of the way with his bowling ball. Crude, but hilarious at times.

Is there anyone who will read this thread who will be willing to defend lawn or garden statuary?

I don't think to highly of any of it. Lawn gnome, pLastic flamingo, Mary with Small Animals, it's all the same and it's none of it good for my property value.

Friend of mine had a neighbor lady who would talk to her gnomes. She was nuts and would try to get my friend evicted for just anything like accidentally slamming the door loud or disapproval of the ladies he'd bring home. So when he had enough he kidnapped the garden gnomes and sent pieces of one of them back with warning that she better get along better with her neighbors and quit *****ing over every little thing, or else she wouldn't see the other ones ALIVE again. She still *****ed but didn't make her complaints official with the landlord and everything's fine except the one sacrificed Gnome.

Awhile back here in my hometown this group of people, I think it was some church group would take 10 pLastic pink flamingos and randomly put them in peoples yards. So at any given time someone would have 10 flamingos in their yard when they didn't even want them. It was the stupidest thing I have ever seen done. I know some people even went out and threw the flamingos away. But I can't say I blame them. Thankfully we didn't get hit due to living 5 miles out of town.

Maybe some weird Version of being "toilet papered", perhaps.
