Someone at the social media team at New Zealand Police is keeping up with the zeitgeist as law enforcement joins the latest viral meme.
"You've heard of elf on the shelf, now get ready for..." was the caption of a tweet sent out by the New Zealand Police official Twitter account yesterday. The tweet included a photo of a cat sleeping on a police hat.
According to Know Your Meme, the Elf on the Shelf meme only really took off last week, first on Reddit, then spreading through to Twitter. However, early uses of the meme can be traced back to 2016.
The idea is to post that sentence, accompanied by a photo of two things that rhyme.
