Breaking-and-entering shenanigans

fuzzyspork said: If something like that exists it was probably made by Pescado at MATY. Maybe the Authorized Personnel Only mod has a setting for this. Though it’s room specific. I guess it would have to be used in the rooms with doors to the outside.

taylors-simblr said: I think you can use the visitor controller to ban specific sims. Not sure if just banning cheerleaders will work, but they’re technically still classed as one so maybe it will

Thank you both. I actually use the Visitor Controller right know, just thought there was maybe a less “final” solution.

fuzzyspork said: You know, after all these years I still have never seen a toddler do this in my game! :/

Really? I have it happen quite regularly but have never been able to figure out what triggers it. Both Benjamin and Andrew can do it, but another toddler in this hood seems unable to…

Happy birthday, Andrew and Benjamin

Um… I got tagged? Thank you, @@plumbtales .

Here we go:

🎃 Tag 10 people you want to get to know better. 🎃

Hmmm… @eulaliasims@didilysims@katatty@simspressionism   , @littleblondesim@holleyberry@fuzzyspork@sim-boo@annegirl13 and @cindysimblr

👻 Questions

Are you a Tricker or a Treater: A treater. I enjoy giving out candy to all the kids on Halloween (It’s gaining popularity over here)- well as long as I don’t have to babysit them afterwards.

What’s your inner demon: that thing where I’m leaving the house, walking to the train and try to remember if I locked the door before leaving, and the next thing I know is that I’m stressing out because I imagine me having to save my dog from the train tracks while a trains approaching (we live really close to the train tracks). Dunno how it’s called, but, yeah… Sorry for being depressing.

What monster would you be: I have a soft spot for Frankenstein’s Bride or any creature closely related to it. Also, vampires? Or witches? They have a pretty cool ‘skill set’.

How would you be in a horror movie: I would be locking myself in a safe room (a legit one, not a ‘surprise, I can enter and stab you’ one) and wait until everything’s over. Or grab a weapon (just in case) and flee. But I don’t want to look too threatening, I might get shot or sth because they think I’m the killer. I’m more of a quiet kind of girl, I think I’d have pretty good chances surviving.

Are you easily scared: Oh my god, yes. I get scared just reading freaking buzzfeed articles!

What are you afraid of: EVERYTHING. My most random fear is the fear of fish. Not sharks, not freaky sea creatures, simple, little fishies. I don’t want them anywhere near me, dead or alive doesn’t matter.

Nurture or Torture: Um… what? Nurture? I don’t usually go around and torture people.

What scared you when you were young: Again, fishes. They were one of the first things I developed a fear of. And our old cat. She was reaaally old and didn’t put up with toddler shenanigans (and I was an annoying toddler), so I ended up with a scratch mark or two. Also, the darkness. Still not a big fan of that one.

Any near death experience: We were driving down a road on Texel (our usual vacation spot, lovely little island) when a log fell off the truck in front of us. Thankfully, it was so windy and the wind pushed the log down to our bumper, otherwise it would have gone straight through the windshield. Asshole fled the scene. Thankfully he was pretty stupid and forgot that he had the telephone number of the company he worked for written in big, bold letters on the side of his truck. We called the cops and the company (company owner and cop tturned out to be close friends), got a free repair at the company’s workshop, a hot chocolate and got to see the driver getting fired. All in all, it was shocking, but okay?

Walk in mysterious liquid or mysterious Forest: Forest. A forest is less likely to kill me on contact.

What is the worst thing possible: So much. Failure, death of loved ones etc.

You go with your heart or brain: A mix. 

You like your room dim or bright: Dim is fine. Unless it’s night time. Then I prefer a slightly illuminated room. So I can see the monsters that are creeping up on me.

Who would kill you, your mum or dad: My Dad. By accident. He’s a really bad driver.

Evilest thing you ever done: I’ve stolen stuff in elementary school by accident and still loose sleep about it to this day… 

What did you dress up as last year: Noting. I helped my boyfriend scare his sister’s guests (at their request). The year before that, I went as Harley Quinn, because I had that one still in my closet.

Anything bad happened to you lately: College started last week and I’m already stressed out because I’m taking ten courses…

What is your favorite candy or snack: There are these little gummy piglets my Dutch teacher handed out for movie day. They were nice and they are now sold here in Germany. So yummy. 

What Villain would you date: Idk, Hades?

What is your biggest flaw: Being too nice? No, really. Can’t say no.

Favorite scary movie/game: I don’t really watch scary movies/ play scary games, sorry.

What do you find sick: The usual stuff.

Are you a demon or an angel: A human with faults. Although demon sounds like fun. ^^

Random thing about you: I’m afraid of a lot of things concerning transport, but I’m not afraid of flying. I have a weird obsession with reading about plane crashes, so I know a lot about how these happen and feel pretty safe boarding a plane.

sim-boo said: Cant zombies die just like normal sims? I had one that starved to death

Might be. As I said I don’t play zombies very much/ not long enough to see them die, even under my horrible care. Thanks for clarifying that!

fuzzyspork said: I really need to try a BACC one of these days!

I’ve started so many over the years… supernatural ones, castaway ones, BACCs set up in the high north or the desert, BACCs set in the desert AND featuring aliens (Wasteland)… I’ve never gotten very far (short attention span), but I’ve always throughout enjoyed them.

My queue is going strong for another month. Given I don’t refill it in time (College has started again and between that and splitting my time between two households, there isn’t a lot of time left for playing the game), I’ve put some other stuff into the queue (something from my historical hood and something else). So… stay tuned?

sajlica said: Yeah, Strangetown is like a wildcard 😀 Vampires would only be off because of too much sun :)) and Veronaville can fit all things nature – plantsims, warewolfs, bigfoot, even vampires as some kind of Twilight story…

(I could totally see Hermia as a sparkling vampire. I mean with all the ~somewhat~ sparkly facepaint/ makeup she’s wearing. Also, the Capps appear to be the more aristocratic members of Veronaville.)

hollywood3015 said: I named both my pits the exact same thing ❤

That’s funny! I think it’s just one of those naming patterns that works quite well for a pair. Hope they don’t fight as much as their mythological counterparts ;D (I’m sure they aren’t).

Looking for a new IPod (both of my old ones died in the span of 6 months and due to teenager me being an idiot and buying everything over the ITunes Store, switching brands just doesn’t make sense). Since when are the only options either “second smartphone” or “display-less box of shuffle doom”?

Shuffle Meme

 Thanks for the tag, thesimtraveler.

1. Away in a Manger– Bing Crosby

Look who forgot to remove their Christmas playlist from their IPod…

2. Primadonna– Marina and The Diamonds

I’m actually more of a song rather than artist type of girl. Not with Marina and The Diamonds. Heard “I am not a robot” on our local radio station eight years ago and have been a fan ever since.

3. The Outsider– Marina and The Diamonds

See? (Also, she’s weirdly well-known in my country.)

4. Basket Case– Green Day

When I was still an ‘emo/goth/whatever kid’, my friends introduced me to Green Day. Lost the style, kept my taste in music (and the friends).

5. Der Teufel– Schandmaul

Yeah, good luck trying to decipher what’s going on here… I really like a lot of genres as long as I long as the song ‘captures’ my attention, I don’t care whether it’s Pop, “Deutschrock” or Bluegrass.

6. Fairytale- Alexander Rybak

European people love their Eurovision Song Contest *shrug*

7. Tune it Up #1– RENT

More rhythmic talking than singing, but hey. Since I studied Theatre Studies with emphasis on Musical Theatre for two years, my Musical/Opera playlist is pretty extensive. RENT is one of my favourite musicals for many reasons. Too many to list.

8. Santa Barbara Skies– Psych- The Musical

I’m a Psych-O.

9. Vincent – Don McLean

I originally downloaded it for my mother to be able to listen to it on long car journeys (back in… 2011?) but since have grown incredibly fond of his music. I don’t know what it is, but it really speaks to me.

10. Tanz der Vampire( Finale)– Tanz der Vampire (Dance of the Vampires)

Ha! Way to go out with a bang! Another one of my favourite musicals and the German version is actually the original one, so you can actually listen to it without cringing (ask me about the German translation of RENT, I dare you. Wrote an essay about that one once).

Also, it’s funny how your opinion of it depends on whether you watched the American Version of it (the ‘improved’ Broadway version- one of the most expensive flops of all time, and rightfully so *shudders*) or the European one.

I tag @audreysims@squeezleprime , @cindysimblr and @littleblondesim , simply because they are the last 4 people that liked some of my posts and I’m lazy like that. Don’t feel pressured to, though.
