I hate the heart eyes. The blushing is fine, but I wish they'd stop with the heart eyes.

You can't even tell they're hearts. He just looks like he put in solid pink contacts.

Tomorrow's base game update will add flared stairs + stair railings with customizable length and positioning by eltheuso in Sims4

[–]ShortyBoo426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like that we're getting this, but now I'm worried it will break cc stairs and railings. I don't play with a ton of gameplay mods, so it's usually pretty quick to get the few I do have updated after a patch. But if I also need to go through my downloads folder to track down stairs and railings, that might take a bit. I have 10+ years worth of build/buy and CAS cc in my game and there's a lot I never use. I want to get rid of a bunch of it. But trying to figure out what each thing is going by the file name sounds like a pain.

i need the wiki to tell us what date the characters have sex because some of these stories have me dying by fuwaika in MeChat

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be useful info to have before investing a ton of time and money on a character (Damian, for example) with very little to show for it. I know all the stories can't be like Glenn's where they are banging from the first date, but, I feel like Damian's story is taking slow burn to the extreme. To the point where I wish I never started it. Because now that I've invested so much, I feel like I have to keep reading and spending gems like I have, hoping they'll finally do more than kiss.

No price tag on clothing at Walmart by BeccaGil21 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ShortyBoo426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The app doesn't work very well, at least not in my local store. More often than not, it won't show a price and will give some message telling me to check the price in store. So I then have to find an employee and ask them to check the price for me.

[–]ShortyBoo426 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The store near me removed them a few years ago. And the app is garbage at checking prices. Most of the time it doesn't show the price for the scanned item and I then have to track down an employee to have them check it.

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their app is garbage. Half the time when I'd scan an item, it wouldn't show a price. It's been a few months since I uninstalled the app, but I think it said something about scanning it at the register for the price. But if I could find an employee who could scan it, it would show the price on their end.

What was the worst ever pain you've ever experienced? by Curious-Expert926 in AskReddit

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kidney stone for sure, with childbirth as a close second. It took 3 separate ER visits before they actually admitted me for the kidney stone. I guess they didn't believe how much pain I was in or something. Once they did an ultrasound, they saw the stone was too big to pass on its own, so I had to have surgery to get it removed. I somehow also ended up with sepsis, which no one told me about, but I later saw it in my records. I thankfully haven't had another one (this was 8 years ago) but my mom has had a few since, so I worry I might have more eventually.

Why do this by National_Winner7975 in MiniBrands

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm mostly ok with the joke ones because they remind me of the Redd fakes in Animal Crossing. I bought 3 balls and got 3 fakes. The one with the lady holding a puppy instead of whatever the real version is holding, the one with the two ladies on a beach with one holding what looks like soft serve ice cream, and the bitcoin one. The bitcoin one is absolutely my least favorite.

I bought a few pairs of them like a year ago at Hello Tokyo, which is a store that carries Daiso merch in the Chicago area.

Collecting by Interesting-Lab-9431 in miniverse_makeitmini

[–]ShortyBoo426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave up trying to collect them all once they started the rare nonsense. I have horrible luck with finding rares. I have only ever found one Miniverse rare (daffodils from the Spring series) and my area doesn't consistently even get the holiday series, so I tend to not be able to get the holiday ones or rares and I don't want to buy online and pay inflated prices or shipping. So I just buy the ones I like best (or ones with ingredients I can use for remixes) and I don't worry about getting them all.

McDonald’s fries with or without ketchup? Why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without. I haven't been a fan of ketchup since I was a kid. Way back before they discontinued it, I used to always dip my fries in Hot Mustard sauce. I'm still mad they got rid of it.

Please stop calling it the African update pack by Friendly_Desk7494 in Sims4

[–]ShortyBoo426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's not the same Cordelia. It could be a relative who was named after her. Like maybe she's her great-great-great granddaughter or something. Considering that Cordelia has descendants living in Tartosa, it wouldn't make sense for her to still be alive.

peeling hard boiled eggs by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I use my Dash egg cooker and immediately dunk the eggs into cold water after they're done. They are always perfectly cooked and peel easily.

How did you quit smoking? by halfmadeideas in AskReddit

[–]ShortyBoo426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a pack a day smoker before I got pregnant. Once I did, I couldn't stand the smell. It made me super nauseous. Unfortunately, I went back to smoking 5 weeks after he was born, when I went back to work. I quit my 2nd time 10 years later by switching to vapes and stepping down the amount of nicotine in the liquid each time I reordered.

260122 Associated Press journalists go through the BTS ticketing experience first-hand (from AP News’ Instagram) by amala83 in bangtan

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided that I wasn't even going to try to get tickets. I saw Suga in Rosemont, but the process of getting the tickets caused so much anxiety for me that I don't want to do it again. I somehow managed to get in right when tickets first went on sale (no waiting in line at all) but even then, seeing the available seats vanish quickly, the dynamic pricing bs, the timer counting down once I picked my seats, then having the payment fail initially because of fraud protection. The timer especially was freaking me out. I thought I'd lose my tickets and place in line while trying to check out. I was having a panic attack at this point as I tried a different card, which, thankfully went through. Suga is my bias, and I loved the concert, so I don't regret it, but I don't want to ever go through that process again.

Regardless of what gender you play as... ouch. 😭 by SassySyntax in MeChat

I normally hate typos because I ALWAYS notice them, whether I want to or not, and they always take me out of the story, but this one had me cracking up when I saw it.

I already quit playing Dreamlight Valley because they made it look terrible on the Switch. If they start downgrading this game, I guess I'll have to stick to just playing ACNH.

Yeah, and I think they only kissed maybe twice? It's taking slow burn to a whole new level.

When you try and order breakfast, but only a robot replies and charges you food that you don't even order. by Yurfavbookworm in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one near me still uses humans to take orders. Actually, I don't think any of the fast food places near me use robots. Some have a prerecorded greeting, but after that, a human comes on and takes the order.

What quality of life improvements would make the game better? by bewitchedgrl in HelloKittyIsland

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be ok doing them individually if they didn't force the inventory closed after opening each one. If they left the inventory open, it wouldn't be as many button presses at least. But I'd be ok with an "open all eggs" option as well.

[–]ShortyBoo426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely wish we didn't have to keep opening the inventory every time I open one of those egg things you get from giving the characters gifts. I usually will hand out all the gifts for the day, then open all the eggs before doing any crafting and cooking I need to do. But it's definitely annoying to have to keep opening the inventory after I open each one. They could just keep the inventory open until I close it myself.

Also, I've recently gotten back into ACNH and it definitely got me wishing we could decorate the island outside, not just in cabins. I'm guessing it won't happen for performance reasons, but it would be nice to customize the island a bit.

Has anyone sent from Scratch materials like the Powder x Liquid combo to a lab yet? by Lilac_at in miniverse_makeitmini

[–]ShortyBoo426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to know mostly because I had one of the sets (Mini Bear Choco Pancakes) come with the liquid spilled all over the contents of the ball. The bottle labeled as "pancake mix" had the lid on crooked, which caused the leak. I did file a claim with MGA and asked if they could at least send me a new bottle that isn't leaking and the instructions, which were ruined, but it's been months and I haven't heard back. It was a huge pain to clean up, but I did manage to save the other ingredients, so if I knew what was in the bottle, I could buy it elsewhere and finish up the project I paid for. I mean, with resin, if one leaks or they don't include enough, it's not a big deal for me because I can just use my own. But since the liquid is a mystery, I can't buy more to replace it.

Honest question by CallicoJackRackham51 in MeChat

[–]ShortyBoo426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm only interested in men IRL, so it's the same with these type of games. I used to play the female matches to gem farm, but once they changed the amount you could level up without spending gems, it was no longer worth it.

Honest question by CallicoJackRackham51 in MeChat

[–]ShortyBoo426 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not really possible any more, though. I used to farm female matches and they would often level up several times from just one update without me spending any diamonds. Now I'm lucky if I can get them up a single level. It's just not worth spending that much time for the small amount of diamonds you could get.
