You were using the net back in 92? Damn, I didn’t get online until 98.
umm… :eek:
[consults notes: “Rule 496. If the girl asks if you are cute, say YES.”]
Yes, I am the cute one.
1992?? Goddamn, that does seem to be WAY too long ago. But…I know I was on AOL when I was 17…
let’s see here…
15 in 1990, so I turned 17 in late '92… OK. Almost. I got my computer in '93, after I graduated. My birthday is very late in the year (November), so I was online summer of '93.
But my Og, I suddenly feel old.
Ethilrist, why are you horrified that I called you cute? ( :eek: )
Not that you called me cute, or “a cute one,” but “the cute one…”
I’ll file that into my memory banks.
Whats wrong with Elenia28? I always thought that was a cool name.
Were people getting confused and thinking you were born in 1928?
I only did that once. Really! I’m sorry.
OK LOOK. I’m feeling old enough already with Mr. “I’ve never been on the Web until 1998”, so you just stop that right now.
Ethilrist, as I recall, you were quite a bit more than cute. I think you’re married, and I’ve involved, so I’ll drop it right here. Suffice it to say I have no problem calling you *the * cute one.
Sig line!
Anaamika, Wow, that’s a weird name :D, um er, I meant "Oh, **Anaamika ** what a lovely name. 
:dubious:
I ain’t buying it.
You’re an imposter!
Where’s Elenia28? What’ve you done with her?? :eek:
Touche.
You shall never see her again, until you send boxes and boxes of chocolate chip cookies to me! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Na…it’s really you.
You’re love of chocolate reveals all.
I could’ve sworn I posted this yesterday. :dubious:
Damn it all to hell! I gave it away!
Hey harmless, I have to tell you…I asked my boyfriend the urban planner (yes it’s really a career. No, his job has nothing to do with it). Anyway I asked him to help me with my latest Sims house, and he helped make me a beautiful house, with an angled porch, a diagonal door. A beautiful hexagonal foyer, and a ballroom, with two-story windows…also a nice deck out back. It’s really pretty!
How’s your Sims going?
Wooooo, you sure you want to ask me about sims? 
Okay, then!
I’m luuuuuuuuuuuurving building houses!
We did a basement for the first time a couple of nights ago…it was easier than I thought! If you haven’t tried it, you got to do it at least once.
Last night I finally let my first sim’s (Betty, who is already deceased) husband, Pao, pass away.
Even threw him a going away party. It was a blast!
It was weird seeing everyone boo-hooing and then the box pops up announcing “Your party was a success! Score: roof raiser!”
Betty and Pao have a total of about 12 grandchillin’s. I need to broaden my genetic database…all of their descendants have that curly-q eye makeup to show they are related (just something I do to keep track for fun). Now it seems everyone in the neighborhood is walking around with it. My teens have no one to date (outside of the npc’s that is - and you can’t grow them up to marry them :rolleyes: ). I also realized that I have hardly any elders. I might’ve remarried Pao if there were any available…he just kept wanting to flirt with his grandson’s fiancé. :dubious: Dirty old man.
I’ve caused the grandson (Luke) and his fiancé (Maura) all sorts of trouble since then. 
Luke is a romance sim who doesn’t want to commit and Maura is a family sim who wants to have 10 kids and get married. Luke has about 5 girlfriends and constantly wants more. I’ve been unsure what to do about these two, so when Maura got the urge to flirt with her new male friend, I said, “Go for it, girl!” cause you know, what’s good for the goose…
I didn’t mean for them to get caught though. 
She flirted, Luke walked in and slapped the p-d out of her and their relationship bottomed out - but they were still engaged.
I got flip about it and said to Mr. Luke (can you tell I love this game? ), “If you’re gonna get mad about her cheating like you do, then you better step up and make an honest woman out of her!” and selected for Maura to ask Luke to marry her. Needless to say, he bolted. :dubious:
That effectively broke off the engagement.
Now Luke is boo-hooing all the time and Maura and the kids are pissed that he left her at the altar.
Luke has the strong desire to be best friends again with Maura but she’s obsessed with the new guy.
Ah…the drama!
How’s about yours?
I usually build houses more than I work on the relationships. Right now I am building my own neighborhood, slowly populating it with people. I call it “Isle of Paradise”.
I plan to fill it up with houses & people, and build a shopping mall. Well, the mall structure is done, I just need to fill up the stores. I’ve already scattered singles around so they can meet & greet later, and a few families. I even have an Indian family with a hot wife and some really cute kids.
Don’t forget to download the patch if you haven’t already!
You’ll really need if when you start making them interact.
So far, the only things I’ve had go wrong since downloading it:
The maid got stuck in a loop cleaning up an espresso cup - moveobjects cheat fixed that.
Teenager has her arm stuck in the tooth brushing position, but I’ve had that happen one time before.
The patch fixed a bunch of stuff I didn’t even realized had a problem.
My boyfriend downloads patches almost the second they come out. He’s very conscientous. (sp?)
The main problem I used to have in the old one was, I couldn’t buy any cats or dogs. Whenever they went to buy them, they’d get stuck! They could buy anything else, though. So I’ve been a little nervous about the whole shopping thing in this one.
It runs a little slow if I have a big house, but I don’t care. I just kill the reflections/shadows. Speaking of reflections, that is AWESOME that you can see into mirrors!
This current couple I’m moving in - named the O’Connors, a nice Irish couple - I’m planning to make them have a baby in a little bit. (Well. As soon as they get some furniture! Right now it’s mostly structure).
I love playing, too!
The only thing I’m a little disappointed in is that my very first character, Betty, had very pointed ears (used the pre-made elf ones) that nobody has inherited yet.
Same thing with Pao’s alien daughter…3 kids, all pinkys.
As in they are pink! :smack:
Not that they were born with all pinkies.
