"Two blue smurfs were left with red faces on Saturday night after they were arrested by police for stealing a trampoline."

/Well, they are kind of on the tiny side of the scale.
//Hilarious!

Chariset: I always thought the Blue Man Group was a bunch of nice boys...

the blue man group has 3 men

there were 2 smurfs

/oh never mind
//useless without drunken smurf pics

I knew it all along!

kittz_cat: the blue man group has 3 men

TFA: "Two were located, but a third man got away," he said.

"When they saw the police had noticed them they dropped the trampoline and took off."

These guys were dressed as smurfs, and carrying a trampoline down a street at 1:00am. How the hell could the police not notice?

What are teenagers in NZ to do when everyone has stigmatized their favorite pastime of sheep shagging?

You're giving us "Dwarfs of Unusual Color" a bad name, man. Not cool! They don't even HAVE a grossly derogatory term for us yet, and we'd like to keep it that way.

If you persist in these shennanigns, the Oompa Loompas will have a sharply worded song made up just for you.

I really really really want pics for this one

wow, I've done some off the wall shiat, getting kicked out of walmart for playing "fark the world" icp's drunken tribute to everyone over the intercom, playing the mushroom game in the isles at meijer for 3 hours then screaming at the moon in the parking lot, that was fun, turning all of the 200+ carts left overnight in a walmart parkinglot upside down, even making elaborate stacked sculptures infront of the doors to enter, stealing 300 carts from a mass meglomall and moving them to the in lot mcdonalds creating a wagon train several layers deep around the place, even swapping menu boards between mcdonalds and burger king (this is on top of hundreds of stunts much like that) but stealing a trampoline dressed as a smurf..... I never thought of that.



/would have kept walkinmg until the police stopped me
//would have denied the existance of the trampoline

I have not slept in three days. The grammer police have an open and shut case. Typing while impaired.

sorry for the typos Farkers

whats the deal with NZ anyway?
I know that australia was started as a prison colony, so was nz sort of like australia's prison colony? i guess that would make it the bottom of the bottom of the barrel in terms of the gene pool.
maybe it is sort of like the florida of the south pacific?

I just caught one slinging a dook in my daughter's exersaucer.

"I just caught one slinging a dook in my daughter's exersaucer."


I picture someone throwing a ferret into a pie tin.

so let's get this in focus..

dude reports 2 smurfs carrying the evidence...

but the boys in blue sed a third man got away...

2 smurfs don't add up to 2 smurfs and one man...

whadda ya think?

What, they couldn't find something else to bounce on?

DulceEtDecorumEst: whats the deal with NZ anyway?

Nah, NZ has richer, more fertile land for farming than Australia - so people paid to come here. Also since it was further away from Europe than any of the other immigrant nations, the people who could afford to pay to make it out here were usually of better means than those who could only scrape together enough to make it across the Atlantic.

Of course, when the gold rush started in NZ in the 1860s, that changed.

Australia's own prison colony was Tasmania, which was a very nasty place in those days.

As for being the Florida of the South Pacific, we're socially liberal and our cops don't yet carry tasers (let alone pistols). On the other hand, we're at the ass-end of the world, we've got to make up our own fun somehow.

This from someone "North of the Mason-Dixon Line"...Mate, have you looked out the window to see the crap going on in your own country? And you're having a go at NZ? Sheeh...:-)

Despite your cat-like typing, I will forgive you on the merits of having farked with a fast-food restaurant sign. A few months ago after a friend died, I needed a creative outlet, so I rearranged the letters on a Burger King sign from reading "Try our new Cheesy Bacon Angus" to "Try our new cheesy gay anus" (using letters from the other side.) I tried taking a picture with my phone, but the back-lighting ruined it.

/I was not dressed as a Smurf at the time, nor was I tore up.
//Just exactly how tore up do you need to be, to go out in public dressed like a smurf?
///Sounds like a scavenger hunt at a costume party got out of hand.

Wombat?

Why does the one oompa loompa have regular unpainted and ungloved hands?

RePete,

Just some harmless ribbing. I hear NZ is actually pretty nice. If it wasn't for the ugly/butch women I would seriously consider moving there. By the way, I spend as little time as possible in the US. I am pretty ashamed of the leadership of my country, even though I love the USA and consider myself a patriot. Remember I'm from that small part of the US that isn't completely farked.

Dunedin is a relatively small city with a big student population. Bored scarfies + alcohol = magically delicious.

/wrong characters, I know.

DulceEtDecorumEst: Just some harmless ribbing

That's fine. It was taken that way.

If it wasn't for the ugly/butch women I would seriously consider moving there.

Oh dear, that's bit harsh isn't it sweetie? Granted, some of our ladies have lingered too long by the offal pit and should never have left the farm. But some of us scrub up OK.

artgeek-

sorry, I didnt mean to imply that NZ women are as busted as for example the British.
they just aren't anywhere near Brazilians or Spanish (not latinas, Spanish Spanish from Spain).

The poor blue fellows must've been too bagged to mention they were relocating their launchpad.

DulceEtDecorumEst

Fair enough. Now excuse me while I go pull smurfs out of the sheep dip.

Impressive for a creature three apples tall. Tho, if those apples were south island Braeburns, they might be taller than expected.

(thisispete speaks the truth about the fertility of the land)

Papa Smurf is gonna be pissed. It seems Drunky Smurf and Swipey Smurf have finally gotten out of control.

hey we are NOT smurfs.

We're performance artists of color.

By the way, I spend as little time as possible in the US. I am pretty ashamed of the leadership of my country, even though I love the USA and consider myself a patriot. Remember I'm from that small part of the US that isn't completely farked.

That is an assinine disclaimer, if I've ever heard one. Who cares if you are ashamed? Cry a farking river to the South Koreans, Cubans, Rwandans, Chinese, etc., etc., etc. who I've never heard in casual discourse say, "Me? I'm originally from China. Oh, by the way, I'm ashamed of my government who commits human rights abuses all the time and jails journalists for disagreeing. In fact, they cesored MI:3 So, anyway, cool party! I like your tunes."

Marge! Smurfs and tramampolines! SMURFS AND TRAMBAMPOLINES!!1

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

Now that's something that should be shared with the grandchildren years from now. As a cautionary tale.

ahhh, Dunedin... the cops are generally pretty sweet, they have been dealing with students like these for years.. I imagine they will just lose their diversions..

/ex scarfie..

trampampoliiiine!!!

There was an earlier reference to Tasmania as Australia's penal colony. It could be said that Dunedin is NZ's Scarfie colony. It keeps the rest of the country safe from the drunken scarfies and the things they do (up and down Baldwin Street, for example). It's also where they make one of the best beers ever (mmm... spiggit's), and home of the South Islands second best Super 12 side.

Maybe they're protesting attacks by Azraelis?

thanks a bunch for keeping us informed, Marcus Brogden, you tha man.

Imagine the 911 operator that got that call, being told that 3 smurfs are stealing someones trampoline.

JBalkwill: the guy reported two smurfs...not 3

wonders if the 3rd *man* was a smurf...

I'd hit it.

/what?
//now that'd be a case of blueballs
///WHAT?!?

Anagrammer wins.

Has anyone seen the film Scarfies?

A "Scarfie" is a Kiwi slang term for a university student, especially those who attend Otago University in Dunedin, New Zealand.
