whats the 1939 about?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 10 months ago

The year that Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer was created.

First and most especially the single most important factor: b/c I thought it sounded cool. 😎

Second, I googled "what does Zaddy mean" - oh wait that was earlier in the day, cough, I mean I googled "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", found that it was first aired in 1939, and so put that.

Third, it is a popular meme format.

But mostly b/c it sounded cool (yet is accurate).
