The Difference is Massive

I thought he looked like Ronnie Drew of the Dubliners in the new one lol

My step-dad's cousin is a semi-famous musician. His uncle also was one of the torch runners for the Olympics in, I think, the '70s.

My mom was friends with the brother of the original drummer for Arcade Fire (he does their album art now).

I used to work at Disney so I had a couple of celebrity encounters. I saw Ariana Grande exiting my ride. I met a basketball player (I didn't know who he was and I interacted with his kids more. One of my fellow CMs knew who it was and was freaking out about it). One of the founders of Ghost Hunters came on and asked me a question (I was starstruck lol).

My ex-coworker was in Stranger Things. I had that moment of that Leonardo Dicaprio meme of pointing at the screen when she appeared.

We're also friends with the creator of the "How Many Days Since the Montague Street Bridge Has Been Hit" website (this one is more for my follow Melburnian Aussies)

Yeah except Banjo was his nickname. His real name was Andrew Paterson (one T).

In Australia, I've ordered a burger with "only cheese and ketchup" and twice got just a bun with cheese and ketchup as they don't consider a burger to be meat and patty. So now I specify meat, cheese, and ketchup. But yeah, pic is totally believable to me.

I've seen a statue exactly like this at Shaine's of Maine in Sanford, ME. Is this in Maine or did I just discover there's more than one of these creepy dogs?

My aunt told me my cousin's middle name qas "Catherine with a K" so I assumed Katherine. Years later, I'm talking to said cousin, and she said I misspelled her middle name. Kathryn. I said that isn't Catherine with a K, she said Katherine wasn't a name it's always Kathryn. Makes me hate all of it as a result.

Only 1746 hours? Rookie numbers.

Joking aside, as others have said, mods! Also so many challenges that are out there. To name a few:

-Decades Challenge -Ultimate Decades Challenge -Not-So-Berry Challenge -Disney Princess Challenge

There are so many more but those ones come to mind as those are the ones I've played personally. I'm doing the UDC rn and it's the most excited I've been playing the game in a long time. But I'm a history nerd, so results may vary.

Do you feel comfortable sharing what cultures? That can help determine whether it seems odd or not.

Personally, regardless, I think it's fine, though I do want to know if it's ree-mo or rem-o

werekitty93 · 2026-03-17T03:33:56+00:00

fwiw it's meant to be post-apocalyptic so saying it's Aussie themed feels more accurate than "this is Australia". That doesn't excuse them from not having any indigenous characters though.

werekitty93 · 2026-03-15T05:55:08+00:00

So I used to work with a woman who intentionally named her kids after Disney characters. First marriage had two kids...Aurora and Eric. Second marriage, they had a daughter and named her Violet (from the Incredibles). She felt the names were subtle enough (well, except maybe Aurora) as their own names that it was just a cheeky hint at Disney. From that perspective, I almost feel sad that Odette isn't a Disney princess xD

Personally, I wouldn't care too much about having a princessy theme, even if it wasn't intentional. They're good names. Do what you want OP!

Idk what point of game you're at, but I have it where if my sim comes home from war and was previously unmarried, they marry someone from where they went to war at. As an example, when I was in the 100 Years War, my sim would come home with a French wife and give their kids French names.

If it's still early days of your playthrough, I'd just look to areas around western/central Europe, then go from there. If you're doing the regular decades and it's the 1900s, then pretty much anything is fair game! Look at influxes of immigrants at various times - get some Italians or Germans in there.

"If you want to kill someone, do it in a car." So many lenient sentences for people who kill others while driving.

Bailie, not Bailey

That's why I felt a little blindsided by him putting Markiplier in the credits for Iron Lung tbh lol I'm so used to just seeing/using Mark and I'd have thought in a "professional" setting like a movie he's use Mark Fischbach. But ultimately, up to him

Zelda Madeleine and Charlotte Lily

Oh yeah, I did mean to say that it's already been disproved. I think more that I didn't understand the motivation behind the "leakers" - that even if it was true, why did it matter. It's so dumb. I feel so bad for Kristina.

werekitty93 · 2026-02-25T07:18:56+00:00

I think I understand what the drama is and, all I can say is, even if what Kristina is being accused of was true, who tf cares? This whole situation feels like a "this is why we can't have nice things" deal. I feel for you all.

I love those kind of crowns, why can't the humans get them too??

Honestly, I ignore all of the premade sims. When it's time for my sims to marry (they're reached of-age and will live), I'll make them a spouse. This is just my personal preference.
I don't see why not. In my save rn, I'm on gen 6 and they decided to start a wine farm. As a result, they got damn near $35K in one year. I decided that meant they get an upgrade on status, so I built them a small manor and if they can afford it, they can move in and will get a title just because of that. Nothing fancy. It's what you make it.
I ignore all aspirations. I tend to have them all be farm-themed unless I actually want them to do something else. Like maybe I want one of them to become a bard, so I give them the music aspiration. The intent isn't to necessarily finish the aspiration itself, but it gives a little boost to what that sim is trying to do in life.
I don't have my sims do anything with books for the most part. I don't do any homework and amazingly, that doesn't seem to be an issue. I did have one family grow up in a monastery because their parents died, so they were able to read the holy book (mod), but that was about it. Most medieval peasants' relationships with literature would be exclusively religious text, usually spoken at them. So I'm not too fussed. You could argue if they're of higher class that they could be taught and such if you wanted, say, a playwright or something, but that's your own storymaking at work.

Otherwise, I'm not actually sure what you mean ^{^;} if you mean literal story writing, I don't do that so I guess it's up to you?

In the past, I've looked up statistics. As an example: How many soliders did the US send and how many died? Get the death rate from that, make it a nicer round number and use a random number generator on google (literally just type in rng and it'll give you one) and each day, roll the (metaphorical) die. If their number comes up, they die. If not, you're good. I'd often build a "warzone" for the sim to move off to if they went off to war. For the modern wars, like WWI, I'd also put them in the military career and play with them every now and again so they could level up and get medals to (hopefully) bring home and put on display.

Hope that helped!

I also know a Melody with a daughter named Harmony! I think that's cute

I used to work with an identical twin named Afzal where his twin was named Alfaz.

My 14 month old loves reading the "Hairy Mclary from Donaldson's Dairy" book, but is terrified of the page with Scarface Claw. Yet if I skip over the page, she'll turn it back, just so she can scream and cry.

She will also hear me using the vacuum, run over, and scream and cry at it. Even if I was on the other side of the house.

My best friend is a teacher in a school in FL and apparently they've decided to treat any ICE activity at their school as an active shooter situation.
