Happy Smurfday! The Smurfs kick off their 50th anniversarsmurf this year, with a new tv series, 3D movie, and of course, comics. It'll be just smurfy!

The smurfing of Smurf Village previously discussed here, but let us not dwell upon that on this smurftastic occasion.

  • Well smurf me smurfing.
  • Smurfenlied (google video) Smurf song (youtube)
  • Classic meme: Smurf Fucking Smurfing
  • The all time greatest Smurfs episode ever: Smurfpocalypse
  • Doesn't "Annismurfery" work better than "Anniversarsmurf?"
  • Smurfy Smurfismurfery, Smurfs!
  • I find Smurfs to be deeply disturbing in an eldritch way that I cannot entirely describe.
  • I'm with you, M. Mabuse. The whole deal is too hallucinatory.
  • Charlie doesn't Smurf!
  • FIFTY? I don't believe it. Was the 80s cartoon a remake, then? *sighs, clicks link*
  • ^ "Oh, come on! I shook his hand, it's all fat and stubby! He must have like a huge mushroom down there! So...does he have a Smurf living in it or what?"
  • "Was the 80s cartoon a remake, then?" The Smurfs, originally known as Les Schtroumpfs, first appeared in Belgian comics in 1958. The same year as quidnunc's mom first appeared in them.
  • Moooooom? You'd tell me if you were in German scheiße videos, wouldn't you? essentially the same thing as Belgian Schtroumpf comics, n'est ce pas?
  • > Smurfpocalypse That's an awesome episode. The end was a bit of a cop out, unfortunately. There are strong anti-smurfual tendencies in the Smurfs; look at how Brainy is portrayed: sly, mean, cowardly, etc. Plus this replacement of certain words like it's not important to speak proper.
  • The Smurfs did actually go to war, as it happens, not just in that Amnesty International ad (or whatever it was). I seem to remember something like the Lilliput vs Blefuscudian war with the North vs South Smurfs warring over the use of the verb smurf in everyday language.
  • Monkeyfilter: warring over the use of the verb smurf in everyday language.
  • Q: Why do you wrap sticky tape around a Smurf when you fuck it? A: To stop it bursting.
  • And, for that matter, the Smurfs were actually a spin off of Johann and Peewit.
  • I used to watch Canadian French-language TV as a kid (living close to the border as I did), and they were always Les Schtroumpfs. La la, Les Schtroumpfs, la la, la la LA la la...
  • Does anyone remember that early internet page alleging the Smurfs were Commies?
  • No, but they totally were.
  • From each according to his smurf, to each accroding to his smurf.
  • I used to be a wiz on the accrodian.
  • I remember in the American South a quite serious contention that the Smurfs were in fact Satanic. No amount of mockery could dissuade the adherents of this theory from their confidence that they were in the right. They kept hammering it until the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon averted their attention by being a much easier target. (Looked for citations for .05 seconds, couldn't find them, gave up.)
  • Accrodian music is best for dancing the ploka.
  • Ah, here we go. From this link:
    * SMURFS Most of us think of the Smurfs as cute, harmless little blue and white aliens. However, the story line is full of occultism. Papa Smurf is cast in the role of a "White" Witchdoctor who is protecting his people by incantations and rituals and potions. Gargamel is cast in the role of the "Black" or evil witchdoctor who is always trying to cast some evil spell over the poor, helpless Smurfs so he can control them forever. In one cartoon screen several years ago, Gargamel is shown creating a Devil's Pentagram from lighted candles on the dirt floor of his house. Gargamel moved inside the Pentagram and carried out a ritual designed to defeat Papa Smurf and the little Smurfs. Your children have probably watched this most Satanic cartoon.
    Also accused of Satanism on that page: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and My Little Pony.
  • Something like this but I remember more gifs. Or maybe it was 'Papa Smurf was a Communist' which I see referred to so I didn't dream it, but the page is gone. It was on some angelfire or lycos page, back in the good old days.
  • I heard they were the ghosts of still born babies. I cannot find a reference for this.
  • woah
  • No, on further thought, I think that is Fairies. Smurfs are just filthy little homunculi made up out of spunk and horseshit.
  • (that's how Homunculi were supposed to be made, FWIW)
  • filthy little homunculi made up out of spunk and horseshit. (that's how Homunculi were supposed to be made, FWIW) That makes for a hilarious coincidence, but I'm not going to tell you why.
  • You were shagging a horse?
  • in the bottom?
  • He must be from Washington State.
  • Spunk and horses... wasn't it mud and... oh wait, I'm mixing up homunculi with the Golem, I guess.
  • What do you have to fuck to get a golem?
  • you fuck your friend over and take the ring for yourself.
  • ... and that's a wrap. Good job today people!
  • I have found that the Smurf's = Commies link was smurfed previously on Smurffilter, long before I was Smurfed. In other Smurf, First Smurf at the Big Screen Smurfs. Looks Smurfy. Which is to say, shit.
