People are getting more and more creative with their Elf on the Shelf ideas, but this one Canadian dad's real-life spin takes the fruitcake. Instead of placing the toy around different parts of the house, Megan Wynberg decided to share ridiculous photos of her husband, Joe, carrying out the elf's mischievous antics. Not only did Joe dress for the occasion, but he also debuted with the elf name "Fle."
From (fake) poop and flour angels to peeing down the chimney, Fle kind of looks like a mom's worst nightmare. To keep him under control, Megan even had to duct tape him to the wall as you'll see ahead — is anyone else concerned about the paint? As uncomfortable as some of the images might make us, the couple's idea was probably a hit with their four little kids. Check out the hilarious photos with Megan's Facebook captions as she wrote them.

"So we finally caved and decided to do the 'Elf on the Shelf' thing. The kids are going to be so surprised! We named our elf FLE and he will be in some pretty precarious spots over the next 24 days! Enjoy."

"Well, day one, and I am not sure about this 'Elf on the Shelf' thing. FLE ate the kids advent calendars, they will be devastated!"

"FLE is out of control! I need to find my receipt. Couldn't handle those advent calendars he ate last night. Today is the second after all!"

"Because picking up after four kids isn't enough! FLE was pretty exited about the first snowfall of the year and I'm pretty sure he pee'd on the floor. I'm getting rid of this thing!"

"So FLE has been trying to get in the house all day. Then I found him doing this. I may have to bring him back in before the neighbours call the cops."

"So we got our tree up and decorated with the kids today. And then FLE tried to get in the tree like his other 'Elf on the Shelf' buddies."
