Dear Readers and Friends: You are all weirdos

[strangetomato]

Gentle readers and fellow Strangetown-lovers,

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you're all weirdos. Wait, don't leave yet... I have proof, from the official Sims 2 site:

Isn't that wild? I would never have expected Strangetown to be the least favourite hood in any poll. I guess us weirdos just congregate on livejournal. But seriously... it was beaten by Desiderata Valley?! WTF? That hood is just a pile of turd with no personality at all, from what I can see. (Sorry, I'm feeling rather honest right now. *snicker*) I love you, FT, but your hood sucks.

*waves Strangetown flag*

*goes off to design a Stragetown flag* Now THAT would be nerdy...

Well, of course all of us STRANGEtown lovers are weirdos! Seriously though, it seems like the people who like Strangetown the best are rabid fans... Not like that's a bad thing. ;)
I've barely played the other towns. Like others said, I've tried but I just find most of the characters there boring. I actually think that Desiderata Valley is probably second on my list though. But that's mainly because of all the beautifully ugly sims, Natasha Una, John Mole, and the pervy old man Louis Aspir that Marina INSISTS on filling her wants list with interactions for. I think the problem with the two newer towns, Riverblossom Hills and Desiderata Valley, is that they spend so much time just showing off the new things that came with their respective EPs.
Pleasantview has always turned me off, mostly because everything seems too normal, despite all of the soap opera-like story lines that people can come up with. And Veronaville is just not original enough for me. When I first started playing the sims, the first thing I wanted to look for was the aliens. So I went to Strangetown and never looked back. There's just so many possibilities for stories there also. With Pleasantview and Veronaville, the stories were already planned out so much and a lot of people do the same things with them. Strangetown, with it's unfamiliar characters just gives people much more opprotunities to play with them story-wise. I guess many people on the community you got that from aren't storytellers. Otherwise, I'm sure that the poll results would have been the total opposite.

I totally agree about an LJ Strangetown community! We should totally resurrect that old My_Strangetown one or make a new one! I will definitely be a part of it. Hell, I could even be a maintainer I love that place so much.

Okay, I'll actually respond to your comment, but first... LOL!

I LOVE your icon. :P

Maybe you are, Ripp, maybe you are...

Heehee! XD I made that icon for you a while ago but never had a reason to use it. It's using lyrics from a Nine Inch Nails song that I think really sums up how Ripp is in chapter 25 part 3 perfectly.
