You know what I’ve decided? I’m gonna play the Sims again. Only this time, I’m making the families Dopers. All kinds of Dopers being represented. I’ll keep everyone informed as to who couples up, and who dies, etc. Anyone want in? Anyone NOT want in?

I wanna be one of those guys who works out a bunch and plays chess, too.

And if you could give me a redhead wife, that’d be just splendid.

I wanna be simmed! Just keep me away from the &$\*@ing hamster.

How many sims can you run in one game? Are there “starring role” sims and a “supporting cast?”

I don’t even have any idea what you’re talking about, and I still want in. Scary.

Pictures. We want pictures.

Put me in a house with a couple o’ those guys in the bondage outfits, please. Iampunha could be one! Have them working out all the time, or cooking me food while I lounge by the pool.

Me! Preferrable somewhere I can wrassle 'gators. Or lounge near a pool. Perhaps there could be 'gators in the pool. Then I can invite others to swim and rescue them from the 'gators. Or not. Depending on whether or not I like them.

P.S. I may need a cabana boy to help me towel off after the 'gator wrassling. And to clean up messes from botched rescues.
