hello!!! i'm the anon who got her heart broken hdjdhdj and i just want to say i really owe you so much these days bc i found your other blog and i have just been spending a few minutes everyday giggling and laughing and i just- i love you i hope you get all the happiness you deserve 😭 um if your 500 event is still open, may i ask for Fast Forward #3 with osamu, suna (feel free to clown those 2 HAHAHA) and kita (bc i just. i think i'm in love with him.) thank you and pls be kind to yourself! ♡
Fast Forward #3: Things he doesn’t know how to do; aka things you have to teach him
Osamu:
It’s amazing how little he knew about taking care of animals. Even more amazing how you would have to walk him through on how to feed your pet, how to clean after the pet, and even play with your little furry child. You shouldn’t have been surprised though, considering the first time he met the animal, he just threw a treat at your pet as if that was feeding.
“You can just leave the food in the tray, sometimes she stops eating halfway but will come back after a little bit.”
He stared at the food bowl like it was a whole new world for him, “What happens if she doesn’t finish?”
You shrug your shoulders, “It’s okay, you don’t have to worry. She just might not be too hungry or you gave her too many treats.” You stare at him who has treats sitting in between his fingers, your furry companion brushing against his leg in hopes of getting a treat, “Samu, seriously, stop giving her treats!”
“But she loves me!” He puts another out and she gladly takes it from his palm.
“Samu! She doesn’t love you; she loves the treats in your hands.”
Osamu chuckles, brushing his hand over her fur, “You know she reminds me of you; this is exactly how I trapped you. You fell in love with me over the food in my hands.” He drops the bag of treats when your hand smacks against the back of his head.
Suna:
Surprisingly, but also not, he was a terrible cook. Apparently, from what his sister says, their mother or her would do all the cooking. It was a typical man’s house type situation, but that didn’t mean he was totally useless. He was pretty handy with fixing things around the apartment, thanks to his father’s teaching. But the kitchen? That was a different story.
This shouldn’t even be counted as cooking, “Just put three minutes on the microwave.” You press the buttons to the machine, Suna watching as the microwave starts to work and for three long minutes, the two of you wait, “See, this is how you make ramen.”
He hums as he stares down into the cup of noodles, “Doesn’t it usually have an egg?” He pokes through the noodles as if an egg would appear.
You nearly facepalm, “Usually when you cook it on the stove top, yeah people add an egg.” There was a part of you that wanted to hug Suna out of pity, “Maybe we can do that next time.”
His mouth is filled with noodles, huffing out air at how the noodles burn his tongue, “So how do I cook rice?”
Your lips twitch, was he serious? You blink at him then to the rice cooker on the countertop, “It’s literally a button you push Suna, what the hell?”
Kita:
Oh, he was absolutely amazing; perfect that you wouldn’t have even noticed this if he hadn’t pointed it out to you. He was terrible with his cell phone, didn’t know that he could change his ringtone because his current one was absolutely annoying and had the longest passcode ever to which he didn’t know how to fix. Even the most mundane problems, you would find yourself leaning on his shoulder and showing him how to properly work his phone.
His current problem today? His friends thought it would be funny to change his cell phone background to a meme and it was absolutely annoying having to look at it.
“Just go to settings.” You rest yourself onto his shoulder, “Then go to wallpaper.”
His hand accidentally slips and clicks Accessibility, causing him to sigh loudly at how hard this was as he would always put it, “I don’t understand why they thought it would be funny to change the background.”
You laugh against the fabric of his shirt, “Maybe it’s because you had your cell phone on the default background since you’ve gotten your phone.”
He shakes his head with a sigh, “There’s nothing wrong with that.” He ends up on the wallpaper section, “Okay now what?”
You hum, “Click, choose a new wallpaper, then you can go back to your default wallpapers.”
His fingers hover over the screen, “What’s this?” He points at the All Photos folder.
“You can pick one of the pictures in your album to be your wallpaper. See.” You click on the folder and what stares back is an array of photos he’s ever taken.
He doesn’t hesitate, choosing the picture of you he took in front of one of the rice fields as his new lock screen.

Holy crap, this is long, OMG. I’m so sorry.
For @pensblr, @bunsblr, @shaonharryandpannisim, @newlibertysims, @fuzzyspork, @littleblondesim, @kayleigh-83, @penig, @damask-wallpaper, @acquiresimoleons, @sim-pudding-faces, @digitalangels, @celebkiriedhel, @unoriginalkirsten, @alicephant, annnnnnnnnnd @landgraab.
pensblr replied to your photoset “More paneling because I wanted some with narrower individual boards. I...”
Thank you! Love the high-res textures. Lately, I have been on a swap-out as many low-res textures as possible kick.
Ohhhhhh, then you are either going to love me or want to murder me in my sleep. Possibly both. :)
But yeah, I decided I wanted all the things high-res for this new Strangetown project. Mostly because I’m going to be photo-editing all the pictures and I want things as nice-looking as possible to start with and not have to worry about pixellation in the background if I’m taking close-ups and stuff. So, that means I have to make a lot of crap since I’m pretty much building a downloads folder from the ground up for it. Build mode first, since I’ll be building lots for the place soon... 
bunsblr replied to your photoset “More paneling because I wanted some with narrower individual boards. I...”
One can never have enough paneling!
That’s my feeling! It’s versatile! You can use it inside as paneling or outside as vertical siding. Both were big mid-century, which is pretty much what I’ll be building so...yeah. One sets of walls, multiple purposes.
shaonharryandpannisim replied to your photoset “More paneling because I wanted some with narrower individual boards. I...”
I had resisted the pull of those sofas. But I can NOT, for the love of Maxis, resist THESE.
Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own.
newlibertysims replied to your photo “Napoleon, not being an asshole. For once. He actually got along quite...”
That street needs a Cat Licking sign.
Orrrrr the cat needs to stay out of the road. Then again, cats like roads. Nice and waaaaaaaaarm.... :)
fuzzyspork replied to your photo “Napoleon, not being an asshole. For once. He actually got along quite...”
It's a good thing random cars don't drive past the lots in TS2. XD
They do when you have that fire hydrant that makes car pool vehicles drive by occasionally! I’m not using that in this neighborhood, though. Not yet, anyway. I don’t reckon it has much vehicle traffic, what with there being only three households and all. :)
littleblondesim replied to your photoset “Meanwhile, over at the pool hall, schmoozing with Review Guy has its...”
http://www.wordlab.com/name-generators/ :)
See, I knew someone would point me at one! :) *is lazyass* Thank you!
kayleigh-83 replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
In which my eyes roll so hard they fall out of my head and across the floor...... lmao honestly anon, get a life.
They have a life! IT IS FULL OF CHEAP WHISKEY! ;)
kayleigh-83 replied to your photo “I can’t be the only one who thinks the poses that Sim-kids strike...”
So agree! I kind of wish Sims retained some of it as they age, like maybe more active Sims stayed more "active" sleepers? Would have been extra cute!
It would have been! I mean, some people never grow out of being restless, flailing, bed-hogging sleepers. *side-eyes husband*
kayleigh-83 replied to your photo “Heh. Took a break from hurling invective at the game’s lighting to...”
That's such a creative idea to make Sim paintings out of it! I love hanging art or photography in my Sims homes that are of their own world, it adds a kind of realism I appreciate! Just like we would hang photos or paintings of our own world.
I have always kinda wanted to do the “take in-game pics and turn them into family pictures” thing...but I’ve never actually done it. One, because I just don’t have the patience to do posing. Two, because even if I had the patience I’m utterly bewildered by poseboxes. Like, how on Earth do you keep track of which box has what poses? Especially because most of them “helpfully” give the poses names like “Pose 1.” I’m just all WTF when it comes to them. 
But I can do scenery pics as paintings/photos, yeah! 
fuzzyspork replied to your photo “Heh. Took a break from hurling invective at the game’s lighting to...”
NICE! Also, if you ever want to hate something that used to be fun for you, just do it as your job for a while. XD
Exactly! That’s why I really didn’t want to be a musician when I grew up! I wanted to be an architect! Unfortunately, math and I have that whole hate/hate relationship going on, so no architecture degree for me! And, as it turns out, music is the only bankable talent I have, given that I have no interest in having a “real job” with bosses and stuff because I’d just get my ass fired if I tried to have one. So, here we are! Thankfully, it didn’t kill my lurve. Probably because it’s such a wide-ranging field, so if you hammer on one aspect of it as your job, there are all sorts of other things you can do for fun.
penig replied to your photoset “OK, game-graphics nerds! I haz question! (Yes, @celebkiriedhel, I’m...”
I had to look intensely to see what you were talking about. I do notice that in my game and I think of it as realism. Because you can see the lines between panels and breadths of wallpaper IRL.
Well, yeah, I can see that with wallpaper. It does have seams IRL, at least. But for flat painted walls, where the “gradient thing” is the most noticeable because there’s otherwise no pattern to distract your eye? Yeah, that doesn’t work as well. :) *still busily hurling invective at Maxis and their stupid lighting calculations and going why, why, WHYYYYYYYYY?!*
damask-wallpaper replied to your photoset “Technicolor was a series of processes used in filmmaking mostly...”
What a fun idea! Who doesn't love the technicolor look?
I love, love, love old movies, with a special fondness for B-movies from the 50s/60s done on the cheap with bad Technicolor when Technicolor was no longer cool. So, yeah, I love the look, myself, whether it’s done well or badly. I think it’ll be fun to photoedit pics for retro-Strangetown.
I kinda wonder if it might be possible to get ReShade to make the game itself look like it’s in Technicolor, but I’ve never managed to get ReShade to work with my TS2 install, so I can’t experiment with that. :(
acquiresimoleons replied to your photoset “Since his mama had decided to visit, Steven made a special dinner....”
Yaaay werewolf! (I'm pretty sure that's what's happening anyway lmao)
Yup, he’s a werewolf! :) I’ve always liked the transformation sequence in TS2. It’s so drama-ful. :)
sim-pudding-faces replied to your photo “And then it was time for Baby Aaron to grow up… Ermagerd, he’s cute!...”
Aww.. lil guy is trying to be stud at an early age, eh?
It’s all about the laydeez! Or maybe about the bois! Or maybe both! Dunno what he’ll like yet. But yes, a stud from infancy, he is. ;)
digitalangels replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
I'd love to see how anon's game looks to see what is "stepping it up" in their books but I bet they're too much coward to give their name for us to see. And anyway, isn't half of the point in Sims games customizing it to look how *you* want *your* game to look like or have I been doing it wrong all these years?
Yeah, it’s kind of funny how such people who leave such messages don’t give you any points of reference. “Stepping it up” is meaningless without such things. I mean, how else are we to know if we’re “stepping it up” properly? 
No, really, I think some people are just really offended by non-Maxis-match and/or using older CC and/or shinier hair/skin textures these days. But, I’m uninterested in Maxis-match (for my own game; I like looking at other Maxis-matchers’ pics, though!), and I like a bit of shine because we do not live in a matte/cartoony world, so such folks and me will just never see eye-to-eye when it comes to game aesthetics. And that’s OK by me, but apparently not by them. Or something. I’m still going with “bottle of whiskey + nothing better to do on a Friday night so let’s *hurr hurr* try to make people angry” theory. To each their own!
newlibertysims replied to your photo “GilsCarburg, in moody Technicolor. ;) OK gotta stop fiddling with this...”
Reminds me of lazy, hazy, crazy days of...fall. XD
Fall! Fall is good! I can’t wait to get this whole summer business over with! I need to live in a place where it’s fall year-round. Which pretty much means another planet, but hey! I’m game for that!
newlibertysims replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
Nothing wrong with being 2008 hot. Just ask Jenna Marbles!
*had to look up Jenna Marbles because I’m totally un-hip to the whole “youtube personality” thing* But yeah! Totally! Other than finding my soulmate in 2013, I think this decade totally bites, personally. Actually, now that I think about it, so far this century ain’t so great, IMO. Tonight, we’re gonna party like it’s 1999. ;)
penig replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
I think, from the voice of certain anons you've responded to lately that you've picked up my stalker. She doesn't like taking responsibility for what she says by putting a face on. And she is persistent as heck.
O RLY?! Oh, the fun we will have, then! Bring it on, anon, bring it on!
fuzzyspork replied to your link “Tips For Manipulating The Sourness Of Your Sourdough”
Ah! I needed this too! I always hated the sourdough we used to make because it was way too tangy (hubby loved it though). He works for a German company and one of the managers offered him some of her 100+ year old starter. I'll have to give it a shot.
Oh, yeah, totally. I’d definitely take her up on her offer. Even if it’s not to your taste to start, you can futz with it. You could even split it and develop a tangier starter and a not-so-tangy one, to suit both your tastes. ‘Course, then you’ve got double the upkeep, but it might be worth it...
fuzzyspork replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
TS2 is 13 years old. I have no idea what "step it up to 2017" even means.
Right? I mean, TS2 is almost from the last century and all. Why must we force it into crappy 2017? I think it would make it cry. ;) 
...Unless we’re talking 2017BCE. That would be cool...
celebkiriedhel replied to your photo “Steven does the annoyed potty-training faces, too. Yes, it’s an...”
But what a manly hairy chest!!
Yeah, the GilsCarbo men are hairballs. ;) Well, the three of them so far, anyway. ;)
celebkiriedhel replied to your post “acquiresimoleons replied to your post: ...”
I used to keep mine on top of the fridge - the top of the fridge was warm from the motor. :)
That’s a good spot, too! The fridges in our places are built-ins, though, so you can’t put stuff on top of them. Which actually sort of sucks, but on the other hand the aesthetics of built-ins please me, so....Rock, hard place. ;)
celebkiriedhel replied to your link “Tips For Manipulating The Sourness Of Your Sourdough”
Thanks for this! I used to make my own bread when I was younger, and I miss having a sourdough starter living in my house.
It is rather fun when the oldest thing in your house is a living being. :)
celebkiriedhel replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
LOL. Lets play 'How old the anon is'! My guess is early teens, with an entitlement phase of a toddler.
Yeah, if the “whiskey + lack of social life” theory isn’t correct, then I’m going with Age ~15. (No offense to sane 15-year-olds out there, but some of y’all...)  Of course, being 15 and the “whiskey + lack of social life” theory aren’t necessarily mutually-exclusive, so...
unoriginalkirsten replied to your photo “And then it was time for Baby Aaron to grow up… Ermagerd, he’s cute!...”
That is spectacular baby balancing right there!
Like those folks who can balance spinning basketballs on their fingertips! Of course, balancing a spinning baby is far more impressive...
alicephant replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
Lol how dare you have a game that you find aesthetically pleasing �� anon is a poo head.
Is it just me, or is “poo head” just a way better insult than “shithead?” I mean, the former, when done right, is just so much more condescending. (And not in the Regency-era sense of the word, either. ;) ) But yeah, I agree. :)
landgraab replied to your post “Your game is so ugly. Maybe it's about time to step it up to 2017.”
"I don't like *your* game, so change it!!!"
Pretty much, yeah. Ya gotta wonder how anyone would think that such a demand would actually work, that anyone would just change everything about what they do in the game because some people don’t like their aesthetic. I mean, it’s not like those of us who don’t conform to “popular” trends are somehow unaware that we’re not conforming to popular treads. Especially when our general pattern in life is being deliberate in our refusal to conform to popular trends about anything, not just a silly game. ;)
