Yeah, really. If Tank was still kicking his ass, he'd buy a bus ticket. I know that there is obviously more than one way he could be interpreted, but I have a hard time translating his 8 nice points into someone who is a willing victim of Tank's abuse (I also find that interpretation of Tank to be pretty asinine, but that's another story). It seems pretty obvious from Ripp's design (long hair, casual clothes, romance aspiration, etc.) that he's intended to be the family rebel, so I'd expect him to just get out of there.

(*snicker* Pleasant times ahead.)

Oooh, if it involves Ripp, I'm there. ;) I'd love to see what you come up with. It's always fun to see what other people do with the Maxis sims.
