Funny things your family and friends have said to you about the Sims

[Liv Lukas]

Okay, I just gotta post this. It is too funny. An IM exchange between me and my mate, whose office is downstairs. Yeah, we are too lazy to walk downstairs to talk to each other.

[11:56 pm] ME: I got lost in trying to make my @)#&$(#@&$(#$& stupid sims do what I want them to. *smacks her sims around*

The game is supposed to be RELAXING!!! Do I look RELAXED??? Grrr.


[11:58 pm] HIM: Be cool, Liv. You don't want your Sims getting out of the computer in the middle of the night and fuckin with you while you sleep. And I don't mean the fun "woo hoo" kind of fuckin. I mean messing with your 'fro and shit.

*******

I love that man. Anyway, what funny things have your friends and family said to you about your Simming/Sims?

[Aegagropilon]

When Mom and I were watching Despicable Me, she remarked that the little minions in the movie were like my sims: they spoke gibberish, and they all went from fighting to hugging and back again :lol:

[lazzybum]

I play quite often and share what's going on to my boyfriend. Recently he said something that I didnt hear clearly, but I thought he said something something "Sims 2" something. So I was like, "did you say Sims 2?" And apparently he didn't, but he knows I'm obsessed with the game so he laughed at it. So now we have an inside joke where we just say "Sims 2 Sims 2 Sims 2 Sims 2..Sims 2, Sims 2 Sims 2" etc to each other in random conversations. XD

[Ynouva]

My sis and I were gossiping about a man who frequently cheats on his wife and so I said "He's a Romance Sim." My sister didn't get it, so she called me a nerd.

Now, every time we gossip about men cheating she would call them Romance Sims, too.

[DrowningFishy]

My co-worker after nearly 3 years of watching me play Sims.

"Sims AGAIN?"

"Wern't you playing this when you began?" (me: no) "Then what was it?" (me: Sims 3) insert annoyed noise from co-worker here.

"You need a new game, seriously." (me: bite me)

"I don't see what you find fun about this game, I don't seriously." (me: you'd have to play it to understand.)

After several minutes of looking over my shoulder, "BUILDING! Again! Everytime I see you your building something! Don't you ever get bored." (me: ... ... ... no)

After watching me doze off playing sims. "See you need a new game." (me: -grogy- ... ... ... no) "But your falling asleep." (Me: Sims arn't behaving so shut up/fuckin' baby ish not growning up.) "crazy, just crazy."

[existerande]

My boyfriend after a obsessive period of playing. "I'm going out now, sulsul!" Me: "Sure... What did you say?"

[Charmful]

I was playing the sims and my boyfriend came back from running, I got up to hug him and he denies me saying, 'Noooo, my hygiene bar is in the red!'

[J_Fanning]

OMG! That is too funny! ROFL! :D

My mother used to get on my case all the time about the "hours and hours" I'd spend playing the game and building. It got to the point one day, I dragged her to the computer and turned the game on, showing her all of the stuff that you can do on there. Fast forward to now when I can't get her off the game, she builds and builds, and she'll sit there all day. If anyone says anything to her, she'll snap at you and say, "I'm playing my game!!"

[frankokomando]

My mom watched me play the sims one time and she was all like ' Why did you build a house for that family and take away the door?' and then she was like 'Why did you light those people on fire?'

Sorry hon, the rules are different for mothers.

[M.M.A.A.]

"Stupid silly game"
"All you do is take them to the bathroom and get them naked"
believe me, they dont understand the point of the whole game.

[nuidyaforever]

I remember one time I was complaining to my mother that one of my Sim couples wouldn't get pregnant no matter how many times they tried for a baby (my mum is my Official Sim Complaint Buddy even though she knows nothing about the game, as proven below).

She replied with "Don't they have fertility bunnies?" :bunny:

...no, Mum, they don't.

(from Instant message)
Friend: Hello
Hello?
HELLO?
ABBIE! GET OFF SIMS AND TALK TO ME!!!
Me: -_-

[LittleFallenAngel]

It's not actually "funny" but my grandma and I used to share an apartment in the city and mine was the only working computer and she was always accusing me of hogging the thing. But only when I wanted to play the sims! Online all day - nothing! Soon as I opened up the game, "You're always on there! Quit hogging it!" *sigh* Thank goodness we have our own places and computers now!

[M.M.A.A.]

by my cousin-in-law (my cousin's wife): "Its a game for girls"
there are much more aspects to the sims 2 other than just dressing sims up

[Peni Griffin]

And there's more to "games for girls" than just dressing things up, too. I would say "game for girls" is a good thing, myself.

[lg135]

My aunt, watching my cousin play her favorite family: Wow, your person goes to work in a limousine??
Cousin: ......
Me (barely holding it in): No, that's for the dog xD Her sim drives that tan, little dirty car in the driveway.
Aunt: ..........why does the dog need a limousine?
Cousin: ...He's like a super star.
Aunt: And your person?
Me, lmao: His owner works at a music store.
Aunt: ... Doesn't he have a wife?
Cousin: She used to be a legal assistant before getting fired. Now she stays at home because they have infant triplets.
Aunt: ......
Me: The dog is pretty much the breadwinner of the family at the moment.
Aunt:................... the dog is the breadwinner... ::walks away::
Me: x'D
Cousin: >: [

[5M0K3]

SISTER: Kira can you come in here real quick?
ME: Um... Just a second!
SISTER: NOW.
ME: You will wait!
SISTER: What is so important that you can't come here for 5 seconds?
ME: I'M PLAYING THE SIMS!
SISTER: The Sims... Oh, is that that game where all they do is fight and have sex like sadistic, masochistic freaks?
ME: ...It's called WooHoo...

[Nixxy245]

This happened few months ago. I was playing Sims and my friend came by. She sat next to me and wached me play for five minutes.

Friend: So...Sims again?
Me: Yeah.
Friend: ......This is boring as hell. All they do is eat, go to bathroom and sleep -_-
Me: Clueless.
Friend: What's the point here?
Me: Well, why don't you sit and play for a bit, huh?
Friend: ....Fine. I'll show you how boring and stupid this is.
Me: Can't wait.
- Few weeks later, I call her to go out with me -
Me: Hey.
Friend: ........Hey.
Me: What are you doing?
Friend: .....Uhm, no-nothing.
Me: Okay...Wanna take a walk? I'm kinda bored.
Friend: ....I can't.
Me: Why not?
Friend: I'm playing Sims.
Me: What? I thought it was boring and stupid.
Friend: ..........I lied.

[Bwinney43]

Man some of you guys have some ignorant friends/family members lol. My family and friends could not care less about me playing Sims 2. In fact my friends who do play are the ones that got me into Sims. My family just doesn't care either way. Never asked to see the game or anything.

[Muñeca Rota]

My husband after several minutes of total silence at home: "You're playing sims, aren't you?"
Me: :D

[FranH]

Describing what I'd put in for 'amusement' purposes:
Me: "I'm building a whorehouse."
Husband: "Your sims lead such good lives."

[kimpossible18]

i was showing my dad how to play the game, i started in CAS and pointed out every aspect and all the aspirations, i even read all those decriptions that i never took the time to read for myself. I moved the family in (mum dad and a teen) and showed him wants fears needs and lifetime wants, jobs, memories, everything!
then i showed him my hacks. (inSim, Inteen) i showed him how a male sim can get pregnant and he walks out saying "Okay I'm done."
"Dad! it's an alien pollination! the alien didn't actually have sex with that guy!"
dad:... no, I'm done. you're over there gettin dudes pregnant and sh*t, dudes having a baby and almost dropping the baby... don't make no sense."

now everytime he sees me playing he'll shout to the closest person around. "Y'all should come watch her play this game! the guys get pregnant! and aliens have sex with people!"

smh :rolleyes:

He owns his own lawn and home care service so while i was building a house he kept yelling at me not to put trees to close to the house or the roots would screw up the foundation lol and how where to put the bushes in relation to the sidewalk hahaha :rofl:
im like "dad, the sims dont care where the trees and bushes are."
dad: so why did you buy the bush if they don't care where it is?"

[Liv Lukas]

My fiance showed me this the other day and said:

"If you replace the word LINE with the word LOT, this is you when you're Simming."

Damn. Caught. *grin*

:lol:

Reminds me of when I was obsessed with Settlers II, many years ago (pre-Sims 2). You know you've got a problem when your pre-teen kids come downstairs to say, "Mom, it's 3:00 in the morning. You need to go to bed." To which I'd reply, "Just one more sawmill..." :rofl:

I've had many all-nighters with Sims 2 since, of course. Not in the last couple years, though. I refuse to think of myself as "old", but there's no denying that I don't bounce back from an all-nighter like I used to! :p

oh yes, I liked that one - I liked seeing the little road network spring up and solving the bottlenecks. Wasn't so keen on the next version.

[WooHoo31]

My friend would call me all the time...

Friend: Hey!
Me: ...... Hi
Friend: What you doing?
Me: ....... Nothing
Friend: Why aren't you talking much?
Me: ....... Playing The Sims.
Friend: Wow! Addict!

Then I got her playing The Sims and she bought the game herself and now our phone conversations are a little more like this...

Me: Hey, I'm bored.
Friend: ..... That's cool
Me: What you doing?
Friend: ....... Nothing *sim music plays in background*
Me: Are you playing Sims??
Friend: ...... yeah.

She also told me that next time I get addicted to a new video game, not to tell her because she'll end up getting addicted too. :giggler: :beer:

[Briana2425]

Okay I got my ten yr old cousin playing the game my aunt called her like ten times until she got frustrated and went to her room she yelled at her to come here my cousin yelled back saying wait a minute im busy getting pregnant my aunt looked really quickly im like were playing the sims she looks at me sighs and says not again so she looks at my computer looks at my sims and watches my now pregnant sims and long story short shes now an a official baby maker im sighing. :help:

[Darby]

oh yes, I liked that one - I liked seeing the little road network spring up and solving the bottlenecks. Wasn't so keen on the next version.

Me neither, sadly. I received it as a gift, and was really excited about it, but although the graphics were much more sophisticated and pretty, the charm was gone. I couldn't get into it long enough to get halfway through even one campaign.

But still, to this day, "just one more sawmill" is one of our family sayings, when someone's obsessing on something. Usually me, with Sims 2. ;)

[AlexandraSpears]

One time fairly recently I was talking to my mother on the phone and she said, "You know they have Pets out for the Sims?"

It hit me that she must have heard about Pets for Sims 3, which I don't have. I said, "Mom...that's for 3. I have Sims 2, and I have the Pets expansion already."

Then the other day I was giving Cassandra Lothario a makeover and I was trying different color lipsticks for the fun of it. My husband wandered by and said, "She looks like a goth." I said, "Funny thing is, that's her last name! Or it was...."

[SingleClawDesigns]

Me and a friend were skyping . He plays sims 3 and i play 2 and we were both playing at the same time while on skype. He was gettin pissed he couldn't get his couple to get pregnant so he was getting really upset and yelling alot telling them to not eat just woohoo till u get pregnant, or use spermicide, whichever came first. A few minutes of more under breath grumbling and I burst out with "AWWWW I got twins"

I think he broke his headset after that.

[M.M.A.A.]

the basic common sentence our families tell us: "Sims again?!" or "Those again?!" and "dont you get bored of it?".

[FranH]

More often than not, my friend Lisa and I will sit on Skype for hours and play our respective games. We describe the game we're playing to each other, encourage one another and mutually swear at each other's game.
It's always good to have someone on the other end who knows how to play the game and understand the mechanics.

[StrangeTownChick]

My sis and I were gossiping about a man who frequently cheats on his wife and so I said "He's a Romance Sim." My sister didn't get it, so she called me a nerd.

Now, every time we gossip about men cheating she would call them Romance Sims, too.

I agree. My mother (who also plays sims) and I always say, "They're not romance sims, they're sluts."

[StrangeTownChick]

My mom originally played Sims 1 and got me into it when I was really little. Then a few summers ago her computer broke and we wound up getting sims 2, and soon after I got a computer capable of playing Sims 2 unlike my other one which was (insert curse word of choice here)y like you've never seen. Not long after I got my best friend into it and she would come over and play on my computer. She would always make such a big deal out of every little thought bubble like, "Aww, she's thinking about her baby!" or "Why is he thinking about money while he's on the toilet?" It drove me crazy, but finally she has her own game (after I explained to her a million times how Sims 2 is way better than Sims 3 so that's the one she should get and we drove to three different stores to find the game...seriously? No one sells it anymore? What kind of wacked-up world is this? Anyway, we found the last Double Deluxe on the shelf)

[Darby]

we drove to three different stores to find the game...seriously? No one sells it anymore? What kind of wacked-up world is this?

It's a world where Sims 2 is now an old game that has been out of production for quite awhile now. Amazon and EBay are still good bets for finding everything, but not brick and mortar stores.

[StrangeTownChick]

Ah well, a lot of people still say Sims 2 is better than the other Simses

[kjd73170]

To anyone who in the real world made a joke about my playing the sims, I make a sim of them and use it as a voodoo doll for the others in the game. Nothing like watching your boss get crushed by a satellite. My girlfriend thought it was funny too.

[Mew1210]

Well... my grandma said this to me the other day:

"Isn't the Sims a little kids game?"

[5M0K3]

It's 2 p.m., I just got up, still in my pyjamas, coming down to the kitchen for breakfast, roomie is in there eating lunch with her boyfriend, Austin.

AUSTIN: Wow, have you been partying all night?
ME: ...What...?
TEGAN: Forget it, man. She's been playing the Sims all night.
AUSTIN: Oh. Okay. I thought she was hungover.
TEGAN: Oh she is.
AUSTIN: ...

Another day I saw Austin and Tegan during lots and lots o' Simmin'!

TEGAN: Playing the Sims again, I see?
ME: Hmm mm.
AUSTIN: What's so damn interesting about that game?
ME: I like playing god.
AUSTIN: ...All they do is eat and sleep and have sex.
ME: I know. That's the perfect life.
AUSTIN: Oh you care for your Sims so much.

[DrowningFishy]

After learning how to use Body shop a little more, and yet agian being at work. Insert some cussing and swearing along the way.

At this time I am removing three hair bulges from one of the asian hairs. Of course you can not remove the bang bulge because there is a lump of flesh under it. Of course insert my co-worker at the right time.

Co-Worker: What are you doing now-that doesn't look like your sims game.
Me: Cause I am not in-
Co-Worker: and why does that sim have a tumor on it's forhead.
Me:... ... >_< .... Because I want her to look like the elephant lady.
Co-worker: That's f- up.

-Insert my game now having a "disfiguring" hair ingame just to annoy my co-worker.

Insert me learning how to abuse a windows program and create color skin tones.

Co-worker: ... ... ... Wha-.
Me: I decided with the tumor I want to make a unicorn, I just want to make sure I have the right skin tone.
Co-worker: I'm worried about you.

[TMNTForever]

I wish someone said something funny to me...

But my family knows well enough to leave me the hell alone when I'm gaming, Sims 2 or PS3.

I'm trying to convince my buddy Luke to get Sims 2. Not easy, considering he's such a well-behaved guy (Unless somebody seriously p***es him off).

Here's a funny thing Luke keeps saying about ME. He keeps calling me a "stud", even though I am fat and have a semi-ugly face.
