Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Rudolf the Reindeer? I thought not. It's not a story the Elves would tell you. It's a Christmas legend. Darth Rudolf was a reindeer, so powerful and so brightly nosed he could use the nose to light the path of a sleigh. He had such a knowledge of the nose light that he could even save Christmas from fog. The bright nose is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful, the only thing he was afraid of was losing his nose light, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his reindeer everything he knew, then his reindeer killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from foggy Christmas Eves, but he couldn't save himself.
If I can recall the other eight lesser known reindeer then itโs a pretty damn good assumtion that I can recall the most famous reindeer of all.

Yeah that has always bothered me. I know the other 8 but do I recall the most famous one?
So I just checked Wikipedia and this song made a little bit more sense when it first came out. The 8 reindeer were named in an 1823 poem. That's not a typo, 1823, almost 200 years ago.
Rudolph first appeared in a booklet in 1939 and wasn't exactly famous for it. He got his famous song in 1949 - relevant xkcd - which topped billboards and made him a household name. So when the song first came out, the words sort of made sense. You might have heard of the other 8, but do you know Rudolph? Probably not! Even though he is the most famous ("at the North Pole, not with you regular folks" being implied, I guess).
Uh, I mean, Rudolph's nose was so bright, the only thing he feared was losing that brightness, which eventually, of course, he did.

Wow, I never realised just how old most Christmas songs are.
Darth Plagueis the red-bladed Sith Lord, had a power others considered unnatural, and if you ever saw it, you would even say, "Is it possible to learn this power?"

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Master Skywalker "the whine"?
I thought not. It's not a story the Sith would tell you. It's a Jedi story. Luke Skywalker was a Master of the Jedi arts, so powerful and so whiny he could use the Force to blow up huts... He had such a knowledge of the light side that he couldn't even keep the ones he cared about from dying.
The light side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be stifled.
He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was using his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught others everything he knew, then his apprentice killed them all. It's ironic he couldn't save others from death, but he could himself.

I still want to know how Rudolph was able to navigate in IMC. I never saw any instruments, or an IFR rating. His nose would need to be bright enough to bake off precip, so we're possibly talking about hundreds of millions of candles, which would exceeded the power available by Santa's sleigh, even with the APU started. Also, at those power levels, his nose would be considered a WMD, vaporizing tracts of land if he hand to descend below the ceiling to look at the ground to get his bearings. So based on that, I have to say the Rudolph story is fake.
You see Darth Rudolf was a young lord of the reindeer with a nose so powerful, he could use the photons to influence the foggy Christmas Eve to create light. He had such a knowledge of reindeer games that he could even make his loved ones laugh and call him names. The light from that nose is something many would consider to be unnatural. The only thing he was afraid of was losing it's power, which eventually of course he did. Unfortunately he taught his son everything he knew, then his son killed him in the fog. Ironic, he could save others from blindness, but not himself.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Rudolf the Red? thought not. It's not a story the Elves would tell you. It's a Reindeer legend. Darth Rudolf was a Reindeer of Santa with a nose so bright he could use it to influence his surrounding to create light... He had such a knowledge of the red nose that he could even keep the ones he cared about from getting lost. The red nose of light is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be like Pinocchio. He became so bright... the only thing he was afraid of was losing was his red nose, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice all the reindeer games he knew, then his apprentice killed him one foggy Christmas eve. Ironic, he could save others from going down in history, but not himself.

Darth Rudolph was a Dark Reindeer of the Sleigh, so powerful and so bright, he could use Christmas Magic to influence his nose to create... light. He had such a knowledge of Dark Christmas Magic he could even light the way for Santaโs Sleigh. The Dark side of Christmas is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so popular... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his popularity, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he was blinded by his nose, so Santa put headlamps on the other reindeer and left him home to sleep. Ironic. He could light the way for others, but not himself.

I thought not. It's not a story the other reindeer would tell you. It's a Christmas legend. Rudolph the red nose reindeer was a sleigh reindeer of Santa, a nose so red and so shiny he could use his nose to guide Santa's sleigh in the fog... He had such a bight nose that he could even keep Santa from getting lost. The abilities of his nose some consider to be unnatural. He became so famous... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his light, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, his brothers did not like his nose so they covered it with tar, then he killed his brothers in their sleep. It's ironic he could guide others in the right direction, but not himself.
It really isn't a story the other reindeer would tell you, because they were all dicks to Rudolph until they needed his help. They won't tell you the story because they come off as jerks. So you have to hear it from a snow man with a mustache.

"Santa uses his power for good"
"Good is a point of view Anakin. Krampus and Santa are similar in almost every way, including their quest for a merrier Christmas."
You know Maul and Vader and
Dooku and Ren
Yoda and Windu and
Qui Gon and Old Ben
But do you recall
The most famous legend of all
Cโmon
Plagueis the red-eyed Sith Lord
Had a very la-arge nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it grows
Cโmon cโmon
All of the other Sith
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Plagueis
Join in any Jedi killing games
Then one shady meeting later
Palpatine came to say cโmon
Anakin with your mind so bright
Wonโt you listen to the tragedy of Darth Plagueis tonight?
Then the two Sith Lords loved him
As they channeled the force with glee
Darth Plagueis the Wi-ise
Youโll go down in history forever
Youโll go down in history forever
Youโll go down in history WHAT
They "used" to laugh and call him names, "used" to.

You know Yoda and Windu
And Fisto and Mundi
Plo Koon and Aayla
And young Ben Kenobi
But can your surmise
The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?
...
I thought that maybe you hadnโt
Itโs not a story most Jedi like
You see old Wise Plagueis
Used midichlorians to create life
He could even use the dark side
To save people soon to die
This power maybe unnatural
But know that it isnโt a lie
...
With his power came a fear
That he would lose it all
Well founded fear will surely creep,
His apprentice killed him in his sleep.
...
It might seem ironic,
Those he loved he wanted to help
Even though he could save others,
He could not save himself.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Rudolf the Reindeer? I thought not. It's not a story the Elves would tell you. It's a Christmas legend. Darth Rudolf was a reindeer, so powerful and so brightly nosed he could use the nose to light the path of a sleigh. He had such a knowledge of the nose light that he could even save Christmas from fog. The bright nose is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful, the only thing he was afraid of was losing his nose light, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his reindeer everything he knew, then his reindeer killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from foggy Christmas Eves, but he couldn't save himself.

If I can recall the other eight lesser known reindeer then itโs a pretty damn good assumtion that I can recall the most famous reindeer of all.
[deleted] ยท 74 points ยท Posted at 19:31:53 on December 4, 2017 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah that has always bothered me. I know the other 8 but do I recall the most famous one?
So I just checked Wikipedia and this song made a little bit more sense when it first came out. The 8 reindeer were named in an 1823 poem. That's not a typo, 1823, almost 200 years ago.
Rudolph first appeared in a booklet in 1939 and wasn't exactly famous for it. He got his famous song in 1949 - relevant xkcd - which topped billboards and made him a household name. So when the song first came out, the words sort of made sense. You might have heard of the other 8, but do you know Rudolph? Probably not! Even though he is the most famous ("at the North Pole, not with you regular folks" being implied, I guess).
Uh, I mean, Rudolph's nose was so bright, the only thing he feared was losing that brightness, which eventually, of course, he did.

He had such a knowledge of the light side that he couldn't even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The light side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be stifled. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was using his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught others everything he knew, then his apprentice killed them all. It's ironic he couldn't save others from death, but he could himself.

I still want to know how Rudolph was able to navigate in IMC. I never saw any instruments, or an IFR rating. His nose would need to be bright enough to bake off precip, so we're possibly talking about hundreds of millions of candles, which would exceeded the power available by Santa's sleigh, even with the APU started. Also, at those power levels, his nose would be considered a WMD, vaporizing tracts of land if he hand to descend below the ceiling to look at the ground to get his bearings. So based on that, I have to say the Rudolph story is fake.

You see Darth Rudolf was a young lord of the reindeer with a nose so powerful, he could use the photons to influence the foggy Christmas Eve to create light. He had such a knowledge of reindeer games that he could even make his loved ones laugh and call him names. The light from that nose is something many would consider to be unnatural. The only thing he was afraid of was losing it's power, which eventually of course he did. Unfortunately he taught his son everything he knew, then his son killed him in the fog. Ironic, he could save others from blindness, but not himself.
