Get a life!

Mmmm, peri-peri chicken! There is a Pirate-themed Restaurant over in MD that has that, it is quite delish!

Where is it in MD? Sounds like the kind of place my sister would love.

I am well-known for my passionate hatred of The Sims. Why?

Because when I was in college, and desperately trying to reach out to other people, I would ask my Sims-addicted roommates if they wanted to hang out that evening, get coffee or whatever. They'd happily agreed, and spend the entire damn night playing that stupid game. I have really low self-esteem as it is, and being passed over in favor of little unintelligible computer-generated people really did not help that...Grrrr. Stupid Sims.

Is it a bad thing that I not only own Sims, but I only play it to screw their little lives up?


Ditto Sim City.

Nah, my sister's favorite thing to do to sims is to kill them in new and creative ways.

My sister's a little weird.

Ditto Sim City.

Not at all. I always loved building up my city a decent size, then (when I got bored), speeding it up until I got something like a Godzilla attack or a tornado come through. A friend of mine got a big kick out of finding new and interesting ways to do in her Sims too. I think my all-time favorites were telling them to swim and then removing the pool's ladders, and sticking a pile of rugs in a fireplace, removing the door, and then waiting for the Sims to build a fire.

I have no idea how you do this, but apparently at some point my sister had one of her sims eaten alive by ants.

lol, i'll have to ask her tomorrow.

i think it had something to do with the house being a total disaster and the sim being as dirty as possible.

I love the Sims, but the second it starts taking over my actual life, I'm off of it. This includes meals with my family.

My kids have been playing Spore like addicts. My husband bought the game after hearing about how you grow a civilization starting from a single-cell creature. Neither of us realized that warfare would be involved.

I shake my head when I hear my 10-year-old giving play-by-play commentary as he dives in my space to bomb the hell out of his latest enemy. But I'm laughing.

My 13-year-old has started abducting scary creatures, dropping them next to an enemy's biggest city, then hitting the creature with the supersize ray and letting it loose on the city like Godzilla on steroids.

Depending on which version they have, these are the ways I know how to kill your Sim.


Fire: Basically, start a fire in some random place. My personal favourite involves sticking the Sims into a room, getting rid of the doors, sticking the firecracker in there (won't work with Sims 2 I think...) and setting it off. For Sims 2, I just stick a fireplace in there instead.
Electrocution: Random and occurs with changing lights.
Drowning: Obvious. Just stick em in the pool without any ladders.
Starvation: Very cruel way, but basically let their food bars drop to zero.
Ants/Flies: This one requires a very dirty house. Just basically don't put a sink anywhere in the house and let the plates pile up.
Guinea Pig: Basically you gotta let the thing bite you.

Thank you. He's an awesome kid.

I once went to "Orioles Fanfest" and saw a kid in line for an autograph watching a portable DVD player.

Not a small one, but about the size of a lap top. He had a back pack full of batteries and games, and would watch this thing until he got to the player where he would hand them a ball and then keep watching.

It was bizzare. I know waiting in line for kids is boring (ditto for adults) but he was at least a teenager.

Find out how she did it!

I've got one for you. Some years ago a friend of mine from IRC used to kill them by refusing to let them go to the bathroom.

Another friend built a hot tub, then somehow destroyed it with the Sim of his ex in it. He said it was very therapeutic!

No shit, i didn't know you could kill them like that.
