Strangetown extras: Just for a laugh, nothing more

[strangetomato]

I need a laugh right now, so maybe you do too. I'm sure this will elicit a tiny giggle, at the very least.

That's some nice hula dancing.

Lucy Burb threw a party (she's a pleasure/knowledge sim), and seems to have only invited guys. Tsk, tsk. What will people think, Lucy? Lucy doesn't care. She just wants a party with lots of cute guys! *giggle* Actually, I know I had her invite other sims, but these are the only ones who showed up.

Try not to let yourself get too disturbed by how close Buck and Tank are standing to each other. o_O They're basically merging as one.

*sniff* I don't see the funny!! *sobs*

(might be a code problem)

[music-simbol.livejournal.com]

Nevermind. :P

[simplode.livejournal.com]

Well, *I* laughed, if only at the thought of Tank doing the hula. And apparently enjoying it! :-)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that part made me giggle too. Dancing the hula, and with Johnny there too. Tank has come a long way in a short time.

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

I still don't see it! :(

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Really? Hmmm... did you try refreshing the page?

[redqueenofevil.livejournal.com]

I can't see it either, and I refreshed it a couple of times. If it helps, I'm on my mac, and not my windows box.

HAHAHA!!! That's so cute! :)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Is it any better now?

Yeah, pretty ridiculous, isn't it? :P

[pixelcurious.livejournal.com]

LOL! That's great. (and for the record, I'm not having any trough seeing it.)

Is that one of the tiki bars in the foreground? :)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, okay. I hope xel_squirgle_ox figures out her problem with the images.

Yeah, that's a tiki bar. It's out on the step of the dorm. I'm sure it was an aspiration-related purchase. They have a bubble blower out there too. It's a party dorm.

[pixelcurious.livejournal.com]

But apparently I AM having trouble SPELLING.

Seriously, trough?! WTF *laughs*

[franwi.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I definitely needed something cute and cheery, and this certainly made me smile.

Beau Broke! *drools*

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

^_^ Glad it came in handy for you.

You like that, huh? Well, there's more where that came from. ;)

[simfulacts.livejournal.com]

I could see Buck cutting loose a bit and shaking his rump at Tank to elicit a "EARGH! GO AWAY!" response.

Aw, brothers!

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Buck might be getting bold enough to do that. I'm sure that Ripp would help him, if he were there (he's the only guy in town that isn't at the party, it seems).

I've had this happen... with everyone in hula outfits, lol. And Ophelia pregnant to boot. Teehee! It's so funny.

And the song "rise of the mermaids" http://www.myspace.com/randommusicforplay (choose it from the list) is ZOMG PERFECT for sim hula! Try it! Download it and put the MP3 file in one of your sim radio stations and watch them.

You will enjoy it. Truuussst me. ;)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I remember you posting a pic of pregnant Ophelia in the hula outfit. That was so cute.

I'll have to check that out. I've never inserted mp3s into the game like that, so this might be a good reason to give it a try.

[dothesmustle.livejournal.com]

Oh, I LOL-ed. Big time. Frances and Tank did it for me. STILL. LAUGHING.

It's just that I would never expect to see Tank of all people hula dancing (he CONSTANTLY chest pounds with the General, though). Frances' expression is just REALLY happy. "TANK IS HERE! :D :D"

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can't imagine Tank doing the hula either. It's too funny. He was getting right in there, working those hips, etc. Too funny.

Frances seems very pleased with the gang of guys, and the dancing. VERY pleased.

[zepheera.livejournal.com]

Psst Tank....

You're hula dancing, not starting a 3 legged race,...


Okay, more comments tomorrow, just finished a 16 hour shift, nighty

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

There's just bonding, as brothers. :P Except they went way too far, and it's more like chemical bonding.

[80sfiend.livejournal.com]

LOL! Nice. :P

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Silly sims. :P There's always something to make you laugh while playing, isn't there?

[saunasims.livejournal.com]

... Man. One new haircut and Beau is looking *scrumptious*. Very nice! :D
And and and. Duude. Have you played around with the Creature Creator freebie for Spore yet? GO PLAY. I've been addicted to it since this morning. Graaaaah.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'm a little slow, but are you saying he needs a haircut... or are you referring to Frances' new haircut? Beau does have an impressive mop of hair there, doesn't he? I think he's pretty cute all disheveled like that. :) Lots of cute boys.

No, I haven't. How do I go play? Is it a free download or something? *gets excited* I'd love to try it out. My SO has been waiting for that game for ages, and I think it looks like a lot of fun too.

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

WORK THAT BOOTY, Frances. He's really sticking that thing OUT.

It's like Lucy is the instructor, too.

"Ok all you fine mens, it's like this. GOOD Frances. Everyone, look at how Frances is really jutting out his buttocks there. All together now. WORK IT BOY!"

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Frances has all the moves.

It is like Lucy is the instructor, isn't it? That was no party... it was a secret dance class. Maybe she's choreographing a dance routine for a musical.

Don't make war- make your dance move!

That's one happy party you have there. Tank doing the Hula Dance! *snicker* They look cute alltogether.

Nimi


ps. I've been reading for a while, loving your story, and just had to post about this, so I'm glad you enabled anonymousness :)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

When left to their own devices, sims can be pretty silly creatures. :) Tank doing the hula is just too funny.

Nice to meet you, Nimi! Thanks for reading. (I'm glad I enabled the anonymous comments too, because it's great to hear from you.)

[simsbarbie.livejournal.com]

Cutest thing ever. My college sims have been slap dancin' together. I think it's like one one the cutest/funniest things! Have your sims learned the "Sea Chanty"? One day i'ma get that song spread around to all sims. LOL

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

I tried to get one of them to learn the sea chanty. (Full disclosure: it was actually Frances. He took someone away on a "dirty weekend" - this will make more sense later)

He was taught it by the sea captain, but then I couldn't find it in the menu anywhere afterwards. Did he reject the lesson, I wonder? Was he too refined to learn such a crude song? *snicker* Oh, Frances... you are just too much. :P

[franwi.livejournal.com]

I can't get over how happy and confident Frances looks. I wish I had a color printer, I'd print this out and tape it near my desk. I'll have to find a computer that will let me do that.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

The new haircut must be working. :) It really does perk him up, as you will see in the second half, if I ever finish the rest of it. I've had the Frances part ready for ages. It's not hard to see where my priorities are (and considering that a lot of the rest of the chapter is about J/R/O that's saying something - I am freaky obsessed with them, apparently).

So would that be an inspirational image for you? All it takes is a happy Frances? :) There's more where that came from. (I'm so excited. can you tell?)

[x-illegal-x.livejournal.com]

I see Ripp is not included in the dancing...is that because of his new haircut??

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Ripp didn't show up at the party, but I did invite him. I don't think he really knows Lucy yet. I know they have bolts for each other, though... that's not a surprise. Everyone has bolts for Ripp, with the possible exception of Tank's girlfriend, Kendal.

[alien-sunshine.livejournal.com]

Aww.. I can't see the hula(ing)! X_x;

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

That's odd. There seems to have been some issues with Photobucket being hacked, but it shows up for me fine right now. My only suggestion is to try again later.
