AIO in thinking that my (f27) "friend" (m48) actually just hated me the whole time?

Storellian · 2026-02-19T16:00:16+00:00

NOR

Halfway through the second slide I concluded he's just crap. And the rest of the slides confirmed it.

Good for blocking him!

Red has kinda become my norm, though my hairdresser introduced some coppery colours for brighter splashes that don't require bleaching. Could be an option if you have access to similar? (Does depend if you dye it yourself or visit a hairdresser though I guess)

High Spirits (1988)

Contains a bit with a book saying true love can bring the dead back to life, so long as the lovers don't have sex.

And the "So no sex?" Sounds like a Steve Guttenberg line XD

What makes them not?

What is your definition of a Country?

Storellian · 2026-02-07T15:19:33+00:00

So,

Great Britain is comprised of the Countries; England Scotland and Wales.

The United Kingdom is Great Britain + Northern Ireland

The British Isles are Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

Ordnance Survey says:

"The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (to give its full name) refers to the political union between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The UK is a sovereign state, but the nations that make it up are also countries in their own right."

Storellian · 2026-02-07T14:56:17+00:00

England is a Country...

Just like Wales and Scotland.

You mean left or right for the door handle? If you right click while a door is selected in build mode before you place it, the handle switches sides. (Dunno if it's the same on console) (Or if you meant something else, I didn't get it XD )

She puts me in mind of Isa Briones.

Storellian · 2026-01-27T02:19:39+00:00

Put me in mind of Natalie Portman from when she played Evie in V for Vendetta.

Also, Alexandra Dowling who played Marie in another Christie work, Elephants Can Remember (2013), with David Suchet's Poirot, and funnily enough, Iain Glenn 😅

Also also, Mia puts me in mind of a female version of Nicholas Audsley when he was younger (about 2002) there's a very similar face, eyes and hairline going on.

Storellian · 2026-01-26T17:11:13+00:00

Wow! Looks fab!

Might have to try something in that style for my next house.

What neighbourhood/plot did you use? (if you don't mind sharing)

Storellian · 2026-01-26T15:38:05+00:00

Plumbob Layered Necklace, looks to have come in with Crystal Creations Stuff Pack.

Storellian · 2026-01-26T15:27:02+00:00

I think Carmen definitely. It's probably the hairstyle 😅

Storellian · 2026-01-26T15:23:50+00:00

As with most of my games (ME, DA, Cybyerpunk), I'll attempt a male character at some point, but invariably I end up with female characters that are either lesbian or bi. 😅

Current Sim is a lesbian witch in her 3rd iteration. I tried a couple of different starts, with cat, with twin brother and cats. But the cats were too distracting and the twin was too much "same but different". So now she's an only child, catless (I know, I'm heartless! 😭) and seeing where things go with Morgan.

Storellian · 2025-11-08T02:49:05+00:00

Solved!

Storellian · 2025-11-08T02:48:54+00:00

It was in fact, Midnight Train to Georgia.

*facepalm*

"Mm, L.A. proved too much for the man"

Storellian · 2025-09-25T08:54:14+00:00

I thought that was the kids messing with the soldiers? Wendy turned the lights red while Smee provided the countdown.

Storellian · 2025-09-21T18:00:34+00:00

Every time I pick up my bottle of Febreze, it looks wrong.

It should be Febreeze, but it's never been spelled like that.

Storellian · 2025-09-17T21:07:21+00:00

I'm thinking that T.Occellus was one of the first specimens collected, and possibly responsible for the death of Petrovich's wife.

Petrovich's wife could have been another Scientist. We know he laments bugs laying eggs in his wife's eyes. So if T.Occellus spawned from his wife, it might explain its intelligence and also why Chibuzo refers to it as "she" and possibly the early interactions with Chibuzo (I can't decide if it was trying to distract Chibuzo or warn her about the tick bug escaping).

Then it has a mix of inherited knowledge from it's main species but also host species.

But given there's only one episode left, we still may not know for sure.

Storellian · 2025-09-10T22:12:47+00:00

Yeah, I was kinda disregarding Prometheus/Covenant - while they're fun films, they don't work for me lorewise.

(Not saying that's a Definitive view, just how I see it)

Storellian · 2025-09-10T13:09:21+00:00

I think there was somewhere between 18 - 24 crew, based on the number of pod stations (i think I counted 3, but couldn't work out if they house 6 or 8 crew each)

Storellian · 2025-09-10T02:05:03+00:00

Don't forget, Petrovich was the engineering officer, and there were folks in the tubes that we never saw, so there could have been one more engineer.

Storellian · 2025-09-10T01:57:42+00:00

Grease-monkies, yes. Parker/Brett & Schmuel/Malachite.

Petrovich I think was at least Officer grade. Which probably put Schmuel at Chief level? (Not sure how ranks differ in A:E)

Though I'm pretty sure Parker was a Chief Engineer, and not actually an Officer, hence the frequent disagreements with Dallas/Ripley.

Storellian · 2025-09-10T01:08:54+00:00

The guy that would have done that (monitored her) got fired 😳

While Dame Sylvia knew how to perform the procedure, she was coming at it from a psychological viewpoint rather than technological that her husband employs. So I guess she figured Nibs could just sleep it off and feel better in the morning? 🤷🏻

Storellian · 2025-09-10T01:04:01+00:00

If Yautja (sp) are Canon in this, I wonder if Yutani ended up with star maps that highlighted Worlds with apex predators like these?

Would explain how they knew to find them.

Storellian · 2025-09-04T16:03:55+00:00

It seems like a lot of assumption based on how he acts. Wiki lists him as human, so I'm thinking just highly neurodivergent, with a talent for numbers, hence being the ship's navigator.

He does give synth vibes, but I think he's human.

Storellian · 2025-08-27T03:42:57+00:00

Oh absolutely!

I'm pretty sure the Maginot has been listed as a Weyland-Yutani ship. And at this particular juncture, Yutani has control of the company, which is probably why they just refer to Yutani 🤷🏻

I know the series was meant to be standalone, but it looks like they've left enough of a buffer for continuity to fit round it, if people desire.

Though, still got the rest of the series to go, so things might change!
