Men were real men, women were real women, and smurfs were real smurfs.
And small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.
And all dared to brave unknown terrors, to do mighty deeds, to boldly split infinitives that no man had split before!
And snozberries tasted like snozzberries
You're not smurfing there. You could smurf a smurf right in the smurf and nobody would give it a second thought.

Second smurf
I was tbere. This is accurate. It smelled like cigarettes too.
And incomplete vehicle internal combustion. You could smell that a car had driven by for a good few minutes after it left. Walking beside a road just always had that smell.
Mmmm, lead!
Needs more cigarettes; In hands, on the ground, in the kids hair. They were everywhere.
Edited: I'm not great with grammar whilst inebriated. Cheers.
Yeah the street gutters used to be full of butts. They were flattened all over the sidewalk.
In hands on the ground in the kids hair.
I feel like there's a typo here, but 7 people have upvoted you so far so maybe I'm missing something.
Edit: Ohh, you meant that the cigarettes should be "in hands, on the ground, in the kid's hair." (Which is true.)
They used to have cigarette vending machines. An underage person could buy cigarettes from a machine, because it had no way to check your age.
Didn’t even need to use the machines, because most people didn’t care. When I wanted to walk to the store in my teens, my mother would give me extra money to pick up cigarettes for her. Cashiers always sold them to me, no problem.
Yep, I witnessed a mom send her 7-year-old child to the corner store with a permission note to buy cigarettes in 1984.
My mother loves to tell the story about taking me to meet Papa Smith at Hardee's. I lost my shit because Smurfs were supposed to be tiny, not 6 feet tall.
Smurfs were 6 foot. The mushrooms were just fucking huge.
there was nothing innocent about it 😏
Looks '80s enough...
Surely that smoke plume and aircraft are edited in. They are crisper than the objects in the foreground lmfao.
My highly technical internet search confirms the plane is fake.
We sure this isn't an AI image that someone edited after the fact? Cars parked erratically, girls look like dolls and their hands are weird, the hi res smoke plume, and what is going on with the guy in the back right.
Reports on shudder Reddit claimed the bikini clad women are AI. I find this entirely plausible:
God I miss those high cut... everything. Underwear these days are so boring. But I bet it's more comfy.
Why does the girl have yellow lines on her legs that match the very strange circular markings on the ground?
Those are chains. One girl is in front of the chains and the other behind.
I'm gonna be honest, I didn't notice the plane at all.I was too busy thinking that the whole picture feels like AI for reasons...
The aircraft definitely appears so.
The plume doesn't seem as much, as I remember smelter stacks were much more commonplace.
Residential and commercial development right next to largescale industrial operations is very 20th century American.
I don’t remember those two other smurfs growing up…
Those are the Slufette twins, great addition to the VHS one could get on that backroom
Those are just your average 80s moms
Papa smurf, can I lick yo ass?!
Fuck me, the early 2000s newgrounds flashbacks!
The peak age of the internet.
What was it like growing up in Finland in the 1980s:
Just a random misfired Soviet SS-N-3 missile. And Santa Claus trying to liven up the situation.
Is Santa in shorts and thigh high boots? Noice.
Dunno about shorts, but folks in Lapland make thigh-high boots of reindeer leather. Seems appropriate.
Sky elephant is disappointed.
No He Man? Where's Michaelangelo? And not a single Care Bear? This was a rough neighborhood.
