White Elephant isn't a new term. I don't know how old it is, but I remember my parents having a white elephant party in the mid 90s.

White Elephant (or Dirty Santa) is like Secret Santa, but you get bad joke gifts. It's about the humor.

Nah I was super excited for 2020. But that was the last time.

This makes total sense, and doesn't belong here. You should read the article before posting it.
Imagine if someone died today and we propped them up in a glass case for people to see, and kids made jokes about them. It's kinda fucked up. Calling them "mummies" just reduces their humanity and makes us think of Scooby Doo cartoons.
