Funny how people suddenly rediscover their ‘christian heritage’ when it comes to shops opening on Christmas Eve (all shops are closed on Sundays in my country; some shops got a special permit to open on Christmas Eve, because- let’s face it, otherwise people would complain how they couldn’t shop on Christmas Eve), or churches closing down (because they don’t get enough traffic). Yeah, and somehow, the Muslims are responsible for that (both the shops and the churches… how?).

An unfortunate mix-up

didilysims said: Psst! That’s Poppy. 🙂

Oh, shoot! I fixed it now. (I even tagged her as Ivy… wow.)

Misbehaving Timothy

didilysims said: Low aspirations?

As it turned out, it was low aspirations. But not on Timmy’s part.

Joe being Joe

holleyberry said: Ugh!

It’s like he’s trying to make me hate him!

Orlando being an ass

didilysims said: But he’s also very joyful about it.

Yeah, he is. He’s pretty thrilled to be the town’s troublemaker it seems.

Pao stalking the whole town

didilysims said: Poor Pao. So unwelcomed everywhere he goes. 😥

Eh, if he would stop barging into their houses in the odd hours of the morning, disturbing everyone’s peace and quiet and stop laughing at the artwork the townspeople hang in their homes, he might be a bit more welcome…

Joe being Joe Part II

moocha-muses said: I’m with Brandon. You’re kind of the worst, Joe.

At this point, I’m not even surprised. Lately, he seems to try to redempt himself, but I’m not entirely convinced…

Joe being Joe Part III

eulaliasims said: Maybe he’s learned and will do better this time? Eh, maybe I shouldn’t hold my breath on that one.

Don’t hold your breath, but it does appear he at least considers changing for the better. 

Kaylynn is a witch! (No surprises here)

didilysims said: She’s been hiding it so well after all. 😛

I mean, it’s not like she wears a giant witch hat!

SOMEONE STOLE OUR F*CKING TRASH CAN?! WHY?!

But joke’s on them: we recycle everything so we got a special trash can that looks like a normal trash can but only holds like 20l. And it’s full of dog shit. Still… WHY?!

Chloe’s birthday

moocha-muses said: They should at least be in their birthday suits!

Ha ha! Oh, they would be if I hadn’t changed the global setting in ACR. Romance Sims are no prudes. Even though Sandy’s door, which is in the line of sight of the couch, is completely see-through… (welcome back, btw!)

holleyberry said: Time to put a ring on it Brandon.

Ugh yes. Both want to marry each other, but neither want to pop the question. I give it two more rounds before I may force them- in the name of love, of course.

On finishing round 8

didilysims said: Such a bizarre glitch, and I hope it’s limited to this ‘hood only! But I’m glad you’ve stuck with it regardless. The drama is great! (Except for this household. Get with it, Jan & Leo…)

It appears to be. But I’m still very wary of it, and even actively put off other ideas because I’m so afraid of it happening again. Oh, just you wait. There is plenty of drama to come.

Sandy’s new clothes

eulaliasims said: That leopard-print top looks great on her!

If Sandy can’t rock it, who can?

Little orphan Brittany– dream big, girl

didilysims said: It’s okay; she wants a sumo wrestler father anyway.

XD. That is not going to happen, unfortunately. But I’m sure she’ll find a loving family and an equally cool father. 😉

On Joe learning couple counselling

davidmont said: OMG witchery! 👁👁

I sense character development in the near future…

Ivy splitting her head open thanks to the freaking diving board

didilysims said: 😀

She is such a dork and I love her!

Weird congratulations

didilysims said: What a weird thing to congratulate, whether it was 20 years ago or this morning. Ah, mean Sims!

This is just… weird. But hey, when Sims still feel like gossiping about Christy breaking up with Joe (she’s been happily married for like 15 sim days now)… just weird.

Engagements!

didilysims said: Yay!

I really love those ‘Surprise Engagement’ animations and tend to over-do it with them. Everyone proposes at tables in my game.

I mean, it’s nice that the whole family is so invested in my relationship, but seriously, I’m twenty-one years old and don’t even have a college degree yet. No need to ‘hint’ at me that our study would also make ‘just a perfect nursery’…

Some quick replies- Holleyberry edition?

holleyberry said: At times?

Every hour of the clock, actually (much like real life parenting). But I feel like Christy would have troubles admitting this to herself, because it would make her feel like a failure (seriously, her aspiration is constantly in the low green/ red and she’s got a terrible mood due to their living conditions (dirt poor). But she actually has great relationships with all of her boys, and isn’t that the thing that really counts?

holleyberry said: Poor Komei.

He’s taking this really badly. He actually rolled the want to fall back in love with Joe, but that’s not going to happen anytime soon, unfortunately (they’re still fighting whenever they meet).

Man, I’ve got a sad bunch of characters in this neighbourhood…
