ChatGPT's translation:

Panel 1 Waiter: "Sir, I’d like to ask you to take off your cap in this restaurant." Smurf: "Take off my cap? You’re not asking me to take off my pants, are you?!"

Panel 2 Waiter: "That’s not the same." Smurf: "That is the same."

Panel 3 Cook (to waiter): "Let him put his cap back on." Waiter: "That’s maybe better."

I'll do a manual one that's more correct and captures the spirit better:

Panel 1

Waiter: "Sir, please take your hat off in this restaurant."

Smurf: "Take off my hat? You wouldn't ask me to take off my trousers either, would you!"

Panel 2

Waiter: "That’s not the same at all."

Smurf: "Yes it is!"

Panel 3

Cook (to waiter): "Let's let him put his hat back on."

Waiter: "Yes, let's."

I feel like Kagi's version is better.

+1 for Dirkjan, always. Another classic https://dirkjan.nl/cartoon/20231004_3677623503/

And this one always gets me too: https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fw... with the "Jesmurfa's witness"

I don't get that first one :(

The smurf's being asked to remove his hat since wearing it in a restaurant is considered impolite. When being pressed the smurf says 'I don't ask you to remove your pants'. When it's revealed the smurfs genitals are under his hat Dirkjan's mate says 'maybe we should let hem keep his hat on'.

Oh no I meant the Pranfeuri one.

Edit: Typing that out me realise that I could just search for that word. Apparently it's just absurdist: https://www.reddit.com/r/learndutch/comments/17nvt4g/pranfeu...

So it's a plumbus!

Yes, a pranfeuri is like a plumbus indeed! Curious how pranfeuri's are made though. Probably smurfs are involved
