Troll Brain Salad

I can't seem to find very many storytellers that have written about the characters in Life Stories. This is sad, because these are fairly attractive characters with a pretty decent back story. Even the premade characters are fairly fleshed out and interesting. But it's not surprising, because the series wasn't that popular amongst The Sims 2 diehards.

My favorite playable is Sharon Foss. She's Riley's (the heroine in the first tale) aunt and we see her briefly at the beginning of the tale. At the end of the story we are given the reason for her disappearance. She ends up giving Riley her house and she is moved to the Sim Bin. It is stated in her description she made a windfall in the stock market and is a millionairess.

In the dialog with Riley at the end of the story, she makes a casual remark that she has met a man on the internet and she's off to pursue greater things.


I always build her a big home, set her up and marry her to Cole Nanale. In my mind she was stood up by her internet date. She met Cole, the punk rocker with the mohawk while she was waiting for her date to show up.

They always have two bolts for each other and they constantly fart hearts for each other (despite Sharon being a Knowledge Sim). Cole, a Family Sim is set at the top of the Slacker career, even though he doesn't have the levels for it. They do well together. Even before I set her hair red or blonde, they double bolt.

I want to write a story about how Cole and Sharon meet. And then I want to write about how she gets past her trauma from what happened in the main story. These two plot points are mapped out in my brain, but for the life of me I can't seem to write them down effectively. The lines I write seem forced and fake. Which is driving me to distraction.

In other news, I've been trolling "The Official Sims 3" facebook fan page. I love sporking the sheep and making the 12s indignant. I am, and will be, very vocal about not using paysites and trying to get people to think for themselves and stop acting like sheep. I suggest others do the same.

I'm finally ranting about this

So... last summer or therebouts, when I first started getting heavily into collecting custom content for sims I had stumbled upon a well known adult mod site. I thought I'd peek into some of the stories written there because I was bored and I wanted to see how some people were using adult mods in their stories.

And there was this pretty good story, by whom, I couldn't tell you. It had decent dialog and the pictures were steamy but not over the top and I was fairly impressed by it. I even stayed up late to read this story and I was so thrilled to get to the end and read what was going to happen to everyone in this epic serial soap opera type story.

And the storyteller totally copped out and blew the entire church up where practically the entire clan was gathered for a wedding. I still seethe over this story ending. I'd rather she/he just not have ended the story and just not kept going with it. This was not closure, this was stupid.

If I wasn't writing this rant on here I would just go off to Sim Secret and post a hate you for ruining a pretty decent story. Yeah, I've been annoyed by this for that long. Usually, I'm pretty good about letting this sort of thing go, but I think reading other people's stories only makes me think back to the several hours I wasted reading that one story (it was a very long story).

Now, I read Katee and Madame Ugly's stories. Hopefully, once I'm done with Mme Ugly I'll be able to find something as good. I'm probably going to go read Sigmaroop and Strange Tomato's stories next. I've heard many good things about them.
