Settle a stupid argument for me...

Is a a smurf a gnome?

For classification purposes, the genus would be gnome, the species would be smurf.

Yabu no, smurfs are not gnomes
Yanbu, smurfs are indeed gnomes

[WickedEmoji]

@steakhousesally is that from experience?

Re sprites and pixies, inthink we need a family tree drawn up

@FelicityPike

What colour would a Smurf turn if you choked it?

White. Choking Smurfs is boring.

@PanamaPattie

A smurf can identify as a gnome but is still biologically a smurf.

@WhatamessIgotinto

I was a Sprite and I could have sworn they were white!

I’d like to portray myself as some sort of Brownie six guru.... but I checked the colours on google. Which is why I could identify the hats worn by the various species as well as their colour.

YABU.

[Matildatoldsuchdreadfullies]

Sprites were green, with a three pointed hat.

Pixies were also green, but with a one pointed hat.

Which means we can rule out smurfs being a sub species of sprite.

They're definitely not gnomes, there were gnomes in the TV series and they were totally separate things. Smurfs are like crocodiles, similar to other creatures in basic ways but pretty much their own species, not gnomes or pixies or fairies 🤣

@Matildatoldsuchdreadfullies

Pixies are green. I was a sixer in the Pixies. I know.

I am unsure whether smurfs are gnomes. But they are most definitely NOT pixies.

No. Sprites were green.

I was a sixer in the gnomes, they’re white!

[Marmite27]

YABU, they’re smurfs. Completely different species.

[Backtoschoolnotsoonenough]

Once Googled my exh and saw a pic of him and his new gf wearing his /hers Smurf outfits. Complete with blue face make up..
He was nearly 40!!
Nearly wet myself.
Never in our near decade had he ever mentioned a fondness for Smurfs!!

[steakhousesally]

No, smurfs are not gnomes.

[WhatamessIgotinto]

A Smurf is not a pixie, what is this madness? Smurfs are Smurfs from Smurfland. Or Smurfsville. Or Smurf Vegas or something.

[FedUpAtHomeTroels]

I think they are gnomes, would that mean.
All Smurfs are gnomes but not all gnomes are smurfs?

[Matildatoldsuchdreadfullies]

Pixies are green. I was a sixer in the Pixies. I know.

[PurpleDaisies]

YABU.

Smurfs are smurfs.

[QuestionMarkNow]

YABU.

How dare anyone say they are gnomes?!?!?

[JamieLeeCurtains]

Gnomes are thought to have evolved from Gnomapithecus in the early Paleolithic.

Smurfs evolved from Boy George's blue chin circa 2008.

[Pelleas]

They are mutant Wombles.

@Anordinarymum

A smurf is a pixie. A gnome is a small bearded man with a hat. I know smurfs wear hats but they are blue.

I hope this helps

Wait. Pixie?
Small bearded man with a hat. Literally Papa Smurf? Blue lives matter!

[Prokupatuscrakedatus]

Definitely not gnomes - or only very very very distantly related

[Makesmilingyourbesthobby]

Smurfette was made out of clay and magic by the smurfs enemy Gargamel to trick the smurfs, and no I wouldn’t say smurfs are gnomes totally different creatures
