Oh, don’t worry. I did delete both the cache files immediately and it’s running smoothly again.

crystaldollhouse said: Is that a custom map? It looks really nice

Yes, it is by nepheris. It’s called “Maple Lake” and you can find it on modthesims. 

didilysims said: It’s looking really good though. 🙂

It does, right? It’s usually “hit and miss” when I try to decorate my neighbourhoods (that’s probably why I’m such a fan of desert neighbourhoods. XD) but I’m really glad about how it turned out!

katatty-main said: do you watch the uk im a celeb, or is there a german version? i’m in england and its popular here, but not as much as it used to be, maybe?

We have our own version, which airs in January (aka right now). Casting highlights include a guy who was the boyfriend of a Germany’s Next Top Model contestant (and broke up with her on air or sth?) and a woman with severe phobias who somehow decided that being a contestant in a show filmed in a jungle was a good idea. The commentary is pretty good, though. Most people only watch it for that, the contestants seem to get more boring every year (don’t follow it very closely).

That’s the one picture of them I took that wasn’t them fighting. They do not get along at all.

We’ll see what happens.

Dinner-for-one reblog (beating a dead horse):

didilysims said: I was thinking of this while setting the table for New Year’s. 🙂

XD. Ever watched it (it’s probably on Youtube)? When my grandparents were still alive, my grandfather often imitated James. He was nearly blind, so a few times it was not quite voluntary. ^^

Me debating whether to start a BACC:

katatty-main said: im always attempting to start baccs, too! i never even finish building the starter houses, haha

mooseabides said: Story of my life! Haha.

eulaliasims said: A succinct summary of every bacc I’ve tried to start too.

I feel you. BACCs are hard, especially since I have the attention span of a goldfish, zero patience and have difficulties connecting with self-made Sims… Gets even worse because I had to read so many Victorian novels for college that I kind of want to play a Victorian/ old timey BACC… Yeah, that ain’t happening…

Non-Sims text post about I’m a celebrity – get me out of here:

asimminggibbon said: Big in Ireland!

Good to know! My parents watch it religiously and since it started yesterday, it’s dominating the news. Wondered if this was just something German people inexplicitly love.

Someone was concerned about my WTF post, but I’ve since deleted it. I actually answered it via reply, but I’m not sure if it reached you. Nothing bad happened, just watched the new Sherlock episode (I’m studying English, that’s kinda mandatory XD) and felt the need to express myself.

annegirl13 said: Technically it is optional in real life. It’s just that the option is “write your paper” or “fail the course”, whereas sims can usually scrape by without doing their papers. 😉

Same over here. Although we also have the option to do something else (like an essay or short review) to pass, but depending on the type of “something else “ we get fewer credit points by doing this and depending on the subject, we won’t be able to get enough CPs. And in some subjects we’re actually supposed to write a certain number of term papers.

Sorry guys, been really busy with university.

Yeah, probably. God, I hope so… Although it could make for an interesting storyline…

Yay! I just hope the baby gets his mother’s eyebrows.

Let him beat up your family, Lazlo!

pascal-curious said: Cutest dads ever!

They are. Wouldn’t have guessed that Vidcund would be such a great dad (he’s very reclusive in my game).

(Unhappy Ripp won’t get into college)

squeezleprime said: poor Ripp! bless his cute heart!

sims2simmies said: Aww… I’m sure if Ripp starts to believe in himself and keep up with the homework then he will make it. ^.^

Not bloody likely. Unfortunately, it’s Friday evening and he has to leave on Sunday for college or he’ll grow up. Poor thing, I think it’s the first sim that I played that won’t go to college.

Giant hot mess, but I love it. So much potential drama!

didilysims said: Trying to be sneaky and blend in. Is it working???

It would be more effective if his best friends mum wouldn’t be there…

nestadaughter said: Maybe he wants to hit on Johnny’s hot mom.

Oh dear. Probably a very early mid-life crisis (quarter-life crisis?)?

And now for something completely different: politics.

simsllama said: Oh my god, that’s crazy and aren’t they even aware that there are 7 billion people on this planet?

Yeah, but are they aren’t german. We must overrun the world with german babies! *irony* (Seriously, I thought that these ideas were left behind in the forties, back where they belong… Well, not really, but I think you get the gist.)

littleblondesim said: please tell me these people don’t hold power in Germany

Hm, that one’s difficult to answer. They got like 20% in one German federal land when they voted back in October (I think?) but the more established parties don’t feel like collaborating with them. The problem is that they try to catch the people who feel left behind by the state and are afraid of the refugees (the old ignorance + fear). Nevermind that they actually want to water down the social benefits and make everyone but the big fishes feel miserable.

speakinginsimlish said: that’s an.. interesting idea. 😂 as simsllama said, there are over 7 billion people on the planet and we’re doing a pretty good job fucking it up already, so more women should probably be buying sex toys!

You know what’s the worst about it? I didn’t notice it at first  until a friend spelt it out: They basically say that women only care about their primal urges and don’t consciously decide to have children… Wow.

Some other “great ideas” the AfD had in the past:

– women who get divorced or have a child “out of wedlock” shouldn’t get any benefits! How dare they!

-patchwork and rainbow families are evil (never mind that their leader is divorced and she, her new husband and their children are a patchwork family…)

-bring back the Mark! (That’s from back when they were still normal until the right wing idiots took over. It’s still a bad idea)

-shoot at refugees trying to cross country frontiers! And yes, even children!

-liberally using social media to stir hate

didilysims said: Aww, cutie. 🙂

She is cute, isn’t she?

holleyberry said: Oh! Since I read backwards i see potential juicy drama!

There is so much drama in that hood, I love it!

holleyberry said: That’s just sexual tension.

Right now, she is pretty mad at the whole Curious clan except for Pascal (whom she doesn’t have any chemistry with). She fought with the girls back when she was in the welcome waggon and every time she talks to Vidcund, they end up arguing… We’ll see how this turns out.

littleblondesim said: she’s so cute!

littleblondesim said: wait, does she have eyebrows?

Oh, she does! They are just a rather dirty blonde (I’m using Poppet’s V2 hair and eyebrows), so they aren’t very visible on the tan skin tone. If you zoom in and look very closely, you can see them in the first picture.

Replies “Erin, no”

holleyberry said: yeah, thats going to go over great with Chloe.

Eh, they aren’t the best of friends to start with. I’m kind of curious if Chloe will show any sort of reaction to this if she finds out.

sims2simmies said: One of my faves of Sims 2. So romantic. =3

The Sim or the animation? Either way, I agree with you. There’s something about Erin that I like (maybe the “sister of mad scientist is a bit of a ditzy blonde and wannabe psychic”?) and I didn’t remember how much I loved the animations.

littleblondesim said: oh dear, erin, honey, no

littleblondesim said: oh erin

Hey, the heart want what it wants! Atleast I hope it is a “the heart wants what it wants” situation and not a “let’s piss off my roommate” one.

And I can’t wait to play it again!

(And if you feel like screaming at the screen in this one, there has arisen an interesting situation in another one. That’s where I started screaming…)
