Natty Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 I know why Smurfette was the only female Smurf, she was created by Gargamel (stuff the spelling it's cold and my fingers are numb) Anyways she was created because being the perve he is he wanted to see 100 tiny little blue boners, but then Papa Smurf being the gay wank he is removed the spell that was on Smurfette so she became good But seriously she was created by Gargamel to basically lead the smurfs on and catch them, she was used as bait, but Papa Smurf removed the spell on her where she was no longer a bad smurf, but a good smurf and she now lives happily ever after with the rest of the smurfs... I'll have to go through the rest of the post and find out what I'm guilty of later ------------------ Check Out My New Homepage, And Sign The Guestbook, Otherwise I'll Be Upset!

brief Posted May 30, 2001 Author Share Posted May 30, 2001 Yeah, I remember that episode of how Gargamel created Smurfette, and since she was created by him, it means no other females existed before her.. so how did the smurfs beget offspring? Boggles the mind. Also, did you ever wonder why Gargamel didn't just create his own smurfs, since he was able to create Smurfette? And I remember the new younger smurfs, and there was one female in there, as well. Who gave birth to them? ------------------ Ah, the mysteries of the Smurfs universe...

Natty Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 I always assumed Smurfette gave birth, makes you wonder who the father is I know the stork brought Baby Smurf, but as for the others (and for the life of my I can't remember their names) I dunno where they came from ------------------ Check Out My New Homepage, And Sign The Guestbook, Otherwise I'll Be Upset!

brief Posted May 31, 2001 Author Share Posted May 31, 2001 Yes, some of the stuff on that list really are from the early 90s, instead of the 80s. And the list seem to be geared more towards girls than boys... like all the references to female attaire and shows like Strawberry Shortcake, My Little Pony, Barbie, etc... So here, let me add a few more that are more geared towards us guys: When someone says, "Now you know," you instinctively follow with "And knowing is half the battle." You wish they could've included the Ecto-II in the second Ghostbusters movie. You wanted to pilot a jetfighter with a Jolly-Rogers skull symbol. When you hear "Chip n Dale" you think "Rescue Rangers," even though you've also heard that there were some strippers with those names. You remember the days when Bart used to say "Eat my shorts" and "Don't have a cow, Homer." When you hear the song "I Get By With a Little Help from My Friends," you think of a kid who has a best friend who wears glasses and a girlfriend who has long, black hair, rather than the Beatles. The first Batman movie you saw was with Micheal Keaton as Batman, and Jack Nicholson as the Joker. The captain of the USS Enterprise is a bald, old man. You recognized the song that Dirk Diggler (Markey Mark/Mark Wahlberg) was singing in the movie Boogie Nights. You've tried to learn the Moon Walk. You've tried to pick up girls by telling your friend that "She's lost that loving feeling." You've wanted to rush home from school just so that you can play "The Legend of Zelda" in that special, gold-plated cartridge. You remember the Zelda cartoon. You wanted to have The Glove for your Nintendo. Super Mario Brothers, the movie, was a disappointment to you. You've tried to fight off bullies by saying, "I've been drinking milk (and working out)." Anyone else want to make up some of their own lists? ------------------ "Feelings.... Nothing more than feelings..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
