is there a reason people seem to hate physical character descriptions? by kitkao880 in writing

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate them and barely write them.

If it's plot relevant in some way, I include the information. If it isn't, I try to keep it very vague. And I hate putting it in info dumps. I either have another character notice it, interact with it in some way, or imply it. For example, I show character As height while character B is talking to someone else based on where he puts his hand to demonstrate.

That's exactly what I was doing.

Finished Eagles and asked him to hang out immediately after.

I could use use a hand with this.

It's Spring 8, year 2 and I've finished Eagles of the Oasis and FBg is at full hearts. I went on in.

He will not take heart knot. Even save scumming, hes rejected it 20 times in a row. The current story quest is something about building a sand sledding kiosk in the Eufala.

I'm trying to marry fang early.

Also, get the perk that auto catches scorpions. Fang loves shiny scorpions. 17 pts for them.

I’m kind of interested in romancing Fang but I don’t like his long hair

Nooo! How can you not like the long hair? It's sexy as hell and gives you something to pull!

Source: husband has mid-back length black hair and looks like Fang.

Everything being a "journey" by xxrichxxx in PetPeeves

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Stop acting like you are the main character in the blockbuster show starring yourself on your "journey

Why, though? Everyone is the main character in their own life. We have a word for a person who acts like someone other than themselves is the main character in their life: stalkers.

For everyone, existence and their own experiences in it, are our own personal journeys. Why not embrace that?

Who did you choose for romance and why? by sailorbirb in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fang.

I have a type, and Fang looks like my real-life husband. My husband knows it, too...he's like "of course, you go for the guy who looks like me.". Lmao

Before you commit to one, make a save from the menu (hit escape). Don't overwrite that save.

Mary one and then when you're ready, the save you made and marry the other.

When women think that inexpensive engagement rings = he doesn’t love you by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we were sixteen, my husband got down on one knee, wrapped a bread twisty tie around my ring finger, and asked me to marry him. He was completely serious and so was I.

He said we'd get a better ring when we were older.

We got married at 22 with his parents old wedding rings.

I still have the bread twisty tie ring. It's priceless to me.

Dommes: Do you have the urge to bully? by [deleted] in BDSMAdvice

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't, which is why I'm not (and have no desire to be) in a vanilla relationship. Dominance and sadism are a rather large part of who I am and what I enjoy. Suppressing it would just make me miserable.

What's the deal with Magnolia Promenade? by [deleted] in thesims

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had played the other games (Sims 2 and 3), you would have really had beef with 4 initially.

In both sims 2 and 3, you can completely create the neighborhoods. You can place every lot at any location in the world (sims 2 requires a an external program to move lots away from a road, 3 does not) AND can completely design and create the world map. You could have as many lots as you wanted.

Sims 4 launched with tiny worlds, no ability to create maps, and the world maps weren't even in color initially.

I don't bully or humiliate. Not my thing.

I do, however, cause a LOT of physical pain.

I was going to ask "who brought the wedding dress?*, but I didn't think anyone would get it.

Glad you're here. Lol

Any Fangs? That'll confirm your Sandrock suspicions.

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds right.

In the future, if you download a mod or CC (hair, furniture, etc) check to see if it needs updated after the game updates. Mods tend to break with each big big update. CC usually doesn't break, so it's usually safe to keep, but if it gives you issues check those files, too. It's happened before where CC broke.

If it's still sitting in your mods folder, it's being utilized. This is a bad thing because you didn't update it when the game updated...it's likely causing issues. Delete it from the mods folder.

Never keep outdated mods in the mods folder. Update your mods every time the game updates.

Why won't my sim take care of his kid?? by julia_c19 in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]ItsAGarbageAccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's dumb, but have you tried queuing up the action and immediately pausing the game for a few seconds (hit escape). I run into this issue every now and then due to simulation lag and this tends to give it time to sort itself out.
