There's a Smurfs movie coming out soon.
Steam: Grizz
3DS: 4038-6012-7259
not bad, I guess.
I wonder if they were just sitting on this one for a while, it seems just a little different than a usual PA strip, I dunno.
Less clever, I guess?
exactly what I thought
I mean
it did mention Smurfberries, a known narcotic

Just for the people who don't get it.
edit: Also my favorite is bottom row 3 in, apparently meth regrows hair.
okay
This is delicious
Wait, it's about that Smurf game for the iPhone isn't it?

I think that is what this comic is about.
Stroumph. You say it like, Strrrrr-ooh-mmm-fff.
#2 The point of the purchases was for a little boy or girl to see a button that would make all his or her smurfs extra happy if it was pushed.
Hmm, I was trying to find that comic where you swipe a credit card for extra damage but dishes are calling so this will do instead.
I think you mean this one
In Denmark Smurfs are known as Smølfer.
Didn't strike me as an article about decadence, more like an article about people being fucking retarded. I mean seriously, if my progeny or anyone else progeny were to play with touch computer of any kind, it would be in airplane mode the entire time.
What's next?
"My daughter send all the pictures of me grinding in the club and "fellatiating" other women to all my contacts after I let her play with my iPhone, I demand compensation!"
I thought it was for a meth comparison.
FTFY
There are a couple issues with the Smurfs game:
1. It's marketed as a kids game and not every parent is aware that you can drop $99 at a time inside the game fo stuff.
2. But hey, you need to enter your itunes password right? Well, not if it's been entered in the past 15 minutes... or the past few hours for one guy who was aware of the in app purchase and the 15 window and waited for it to expire but his kid was still able to drop a few hundred dollars.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Would NOT be surprised if we get another Strawberry Shortcake incident out of this. So, download your copy now, folks!
Yeah, it's operating as designed.
From the screenshots I saw, it's pretty upfront about charging you. Love how it's not the parent's fault she's stupid.

smurfraves are a gateway into the smurflifestyle
If you enter in your password into the App Store on a device, you don't have to re-enter it for another 15 minutes. (ostensibly so that if you were buying a bunch of apps at once its more convenient than having to key in your password every time.)
however, it also covers in-app purchases, so Mom or Dad would buy the game for little Johnny, hand the iPad off to'em to play with, and, if I were to guess, Capcom makes that in-app purchase screen really goddamn easy to access, if not the first thing you see, so they don't get prompted for the password.
