A Facebook post from user Pippa Timothy on December 23rd, 2017: Fun science fact, the North Pole elves are actually a eusocial gestalt (like ants, bees, etc). Santa is the Queen, not in the sense of power of authority but in that he is the sole reproducer. Each Santa lives about a year, and then they feed a pupal elf royal jelly so that it matures into a Claus. His belly jiggles like a bowl full of jelly on Christmas because generally they hatch a new Claus the day before Christmas Eve. Just think: right now the new Santa is flexing his ovipositor so he can leave eggs inside every chimney, drying out his wings for his first flight.

Well this is ridiculous.

But I never thought to ask where elves come from. Does Mrs. Claus give birth to them? Or they have elf wives that live there too, like a company town at the North Pole? Where they are kept poor and exploited by Santa, so he can fulfill the greedy capitalist dreams of spoiled first world children? It’s like slavery with extra steps. Yeah I got laid in college.
