Most people who will read this will probably think I may a little coockoo. If you are one of them
then just leave - you will not enjoy this blog. This is for people with a little humour.
So this isn't exactly thought of the day but it is a thought that has for many years become an obsession
to figure out what is the deal with the smurfs and the writer/s behind them.
So think of their village as a small society-well let me tell you there is some freaky shit going on in that village and even though this was one of my favourite shows when I was little along with pink panther and thundercats as I grew older I started having a lot of gaps as to what was happening in there.
So we have a village that is so private - no visitors no one coming in or out what the hell? Who are they Freemasons?
Secondly they have one female and blonde! Way to go on stereotyping. Not to mention the baby that suddenly came.
And as we are on the subject of stereotyping the cat! It is a cat of course it will chase after little things running around-doesn't yours?
Not to mention Gargamel's obsession with destroying something he does not understand? And we all know which people do not accept what they do not understand? I wont say any names but lets just say they do not accept differentiation.
Just a few thoughts, I actually came across a very interesting article by Curtis Silver which is relevant you might enjoy:
