"Oh it's raining outside!"

My view was inside the house so I didn't realize it had been raining for hours in-game until I saw the lightning.

I can get so engrossed in my game, that I don't notice that it's started to rain outside in Real Life.

"Fascinating, isn't it? It holds the roof up."

"It's so you can look out at the back garden."

Little Joey Hamble is showing a lot of interest in the downtown house he has just moved into with his teenage parents. I suppose it's really a sign of intelligence. I think I was a bit like that at his age. After all, the grown-up world really is fascinating.

I didn't say this during a sims game, but during the socialization before our weekly tabletop game one of our friends was talking about his Skyrim game and all the trouble he was having with it. It glitches a lot and apparently game consoles don't let you input cheat codes which just seems wrong to me? Anyway he said: "It's still a good game, though, even as glitchy as it is, and it's old, like, ten years old or so."

I said: "Ten years, huh? That's cute, said the Sims 2 player."

Ugly is in the heart of the beholder.

You definitely have a point. The relative ages of some parents and their children in my game has long been "interesting". I mean just how old was Gloria when she had Andrew? For much of my game she has been a professional sportswoman at her peak. Now professional sportspeople usually peak in their mid to late twenties. Which would suggest that she must have been a very young teenage mum, since she has a teenage son who is now clearly old enough to be married. Now I think the minimum age for marriage may be younger in Veronaville than 16, which it is in Scotland. Especially since that champion of young love, Juliette Capp, is head of state there. However Andrew told me himself that he was 18 when he married Julian, and Julian was 17.

I reckon you become a teen on your 13th birthday, and cease to be a teen on your 20th birthday. Now in the UK, school starts at 5 years of age, and many children, including myself, actually start while they're still four (though in my case I was only a month away from my 5th birthday). So, like Gcgb53191's cousin, it is certainly possible to have a child at 13, and have them start school before you reach 20. But I have to admit that Roxie and Ron Hamble look more like 15 than 19. However some people do look younger than the really are. In fact I reckon at 19 or 20 I myself could easily have passed for 14 or 15 if I'd wanted to. (My height never got past 5 foot 5 inches (165 cm) and my speaking voice was, and is, quite high pitched.) So maybe Ron and Roxie really are 18 or 19.

Now it certainly seems Gloria must indeed have been really young when she gave birth to Andrew, yet Andrew never stops telling us that as a mother she's sans pareil! So I'm sure teenage mothers can still be very good mothers. Roxie is trying very hard to live up to Gloria's standard, autonomously tucking Joey up in bed. Sadly Joey, unlike Andrew, is singularly failing to return his mum's love. Last night he refused a family kiss from her. She's thinking of buying a chess table so she can spend more quality time with him. Or even a dolls' house or a toy garage where they can play together.

"That must be a major step down. At least your husband's mother unlocked showers."

I am very loosely playing (I follow the general premise, but not every single rule) an apocalypse challenge with Phaenoh's rule mods in. One of my founder's twins ended up marrying Monica Bradford from the La Fiesta Tech Sorority, and I was commenting how it must be a step down from the sorority house to a bare bones apocalypse house.
