Strangetown Extras: April Fish!

Did you know that the practical joking element of April Fools Day was most likely started in France? In France (or French cultures, like in French Canada) the person being fooled is referred to as a poisson d'avril, or April fish. This originally had something to do with the zodiac, and the French traditionally celebrated April Fools Day by placing dead fish on the backs of their friends. (No, I'm not making this up!)





Fish fight!




Johnny: You're going down, Grunt!

Ripp: Ooooof!




Johnny: Oh, NICE! A direct hit!

Ripp: Owwww! Watch the face, Johnny!

Johnny: Fish in the face!




Ripp: I'll bet you'd fucking love that, huh, Johnny? A big face full of fish?

Johnny: Don't get it in my mouth! I'm a vegetarian!

Ripp: That doesn't count, John.




Johnny: Face your defeat, Ripp. You're no match for me.

Ripp: Yeah, you have all the fucking skills, Johnny. Nobody slings a fish around quite like you do.

Johnny: Good workout! Now I don't need to go for a jog.

Ripp: Why jog when you can play with giant fish?




Ripp: Another challenger, hey? You'll be sorry, Phi...

Ophelia: Oh, we'll see about that!

Ripp: *gets pummeled*




Ripp: You call that a fish slap?! You hit like a girl, Phi!

Ophelia: So do you!

Ripp: You'll pay for that remark!

Ophelia: Bring it on!




Ripp: It's easy to hit such a nice, round target!

Ophelia: Hey! Watch it!

Ripp: *thinking* Such a sweet, sweet target...




Ophelia: It's not THAT big!




Ripp: Nothing wrong with a little junk on the trunk, Phi. Nothing at all... *stares*

Ophelia: You're an April fool alright. Get your face out of there!

Ripp: This is my favourite day of the year. Fuckin' sweet...




Ophelia: You're in for it!

Ripp: Oh, that's right! Punish me.








Oh, and I almost forgot... the mod that turns your pillow fights into fish fights can be found here.

Hee Hee, I don't know what's funnier: The dialogue between those three (classy as always, Ripp :P), the fact that they are fighting with FISH or the fact that there are FEATHERS coming out from said fishes!

*snort* Like Johnny's never had fish in his mouth. . .

I swear the more I see Ripp drooling for Phi, the more I want you to make him happy - in a very bad way. It's making me think back to when he was doing that chick in Phi's bed and how maybe it wasn't just an "accident" that he wound up in that bed, perhaps he was playing out some fantasy of his own. I love that there may be one woman out there that Ripp truly desires, but at the same time the whole Johnny factor makes me want to smack Ripp - possibly with a slimy dead fish. ;)

LOL!
If Ripp gets his face any closer to Ophelia's ass in the one pic...*snort*.
I don't know which is funnier; all the fish slapping in the post or the fish fight going on in the comments. :D

OMG... this is so funny! I think I'm going to d/l the fish and then take out my mod for no auto pillow fights... and then wait and see if and when my oldest daughter notices when she plays! :-P Wouldn't that be a hoot??? I already woke her up by saying school was closed for the day... APRIL FOOL!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Yes I'm easily amused, lol.

Sorta OT... I commented back to you from my LJ re: Simstorytellers and how to post there. I seem to be having a bit of trouble (blush). Any help would be muchly appreciated!

Hugs
Cindy

Good Cod, this eels the deal! Ripp truly loves Ophelia with all his carp and sole.
*runs away really fast*

w00 fish!

I LOVE it! And thank you SO MUCH for posting the link too. That's just fantastic!

As funny as that mod is, it's so hard to work into a story. At least, there's always outtakes!

And Ripp would totally be into the kinky stuff, wouldn't he?

Schlip-a-schlap-a vay
Schlip! Schlap!
Schlap avay all day
Schlip! Schlap!
You simply can't go wrong
Vith traditional fish-schlapping song

I always wanted the feathers to be fish scales, too. If you're going to that much trouble, why not go all the way? (No, Ripp, I didn't mean "go all the way" in THAT sense.)

Happy April Fools!
*slips an anchovy down your shirt*

Wish I had saw this sooner- I love it! I already find all the autonomous pillowfights in my game (almost everyone in my next generation of sims is really high in playful points) entertaining enough, but this would definitely make me rofl whenever I saw it!

By the way, it must have gotten buried in your friends list but the entry where Ripp gets "inspired" by the fishies is up.

LMAO. Oh that is just too good. :P
