I'm not sure if anyone else is bothered by this, but seriously...what the fuck are they? lol They're little blue creatures that apparently taste good since Gargamel is always trying to cook their ass.
So, I did a little research on the little bastards. Apparently, their height is measured as 3 apples tall. Personally, I've always pictured them as smaller, but whatever. Anyway, Gargamel invented Smurfette to lure them back to his lair, but it failed. Les Schtroumpfs actually started out as a Belgian comic. As everyone knows smurfs love to eat "smurfberries." Actually, smurfberries were only in the American cartoon. In the comic, they only ate the leaves of the Smilax plant in which the smurfberries grow on. Except for Papa Smurf, Smurfette, Baby, Nanny, and Grandpa the smurfs are said to be 100 years old. However, they'd be like 119 years now since that was in 1990.
Some of you nerds may have known some of that. But listen to this smurf. There was actually a sort of smurf civil war in a 1972 comic. The village was divided into north and south separating the opinion of how to use the verb "smurf." How smurfed is that?! Apparently, there was a dispute in particular where the northerners said, "bottle smurfer," whereas the southerners called it a "smurf opener." The comic was called Schtroumpf vert et vert Schtroumpf (Smurf vs. Smurf). It was supposed to be a poke at French and Dutch speaking communities in Belgiam who were having a chtroumpfs (language war).
They even have their own memorial coin for the 50th anniversery on a 5 euro coin.
So now that you've learned your Smurf history. Resume your life and go get smurfed.
Peace.
"A Smurf divided cannot stand!"
ReplyDeleteHaha, now do smurfs lay eggs?
Or do they have live birth?
And you better come to b-dubs, or I will kill you.
I hope to go get smurfed later tonight.
ReplyDeleteI pictured them a little smaller too.
I had to take off my glasses to see the little bastards, was wearing blue blockers.
