“Timmy have you fed the Christmas poo log dear?”

“Just getting his blanket mum”

WTF

There’s absolutely nothing weird about the fact you still leave mince pies out for Santa… in comparison to THIS!

Across Spain (Catalonia) children feed and clothe a hollow log with a manic smiling face. Say a warm Merry Christmas to the ‘Poo Log’ (Caga Tió).

All through December the 'Poo Log’ is fed fruit and nuts and wrapped up in a festive blanket.

Then on Christmas Eve the family help the poor constipated log to drop his load… by bashing him senseless with sticks.

They gather around and sing the traditional song while beating the little lad;

“Shit log,
Shit nougats,
Hazelnuts and mató cheese,
If you don't shit well,
I'll hit you with a stick,
Shit log!”

The children then look under his blanket to see the damage - the log has pooped out gifts and sweets 🍬

What sorcery is this?!
