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.

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.

[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.

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

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

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

[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.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

I really think of him as being like that too. Maybe not that bad, but maybe... I don't see him as being overly literate. Why read when you can watch TV, right?

[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.

Maybe Photobucket got it cleared up before the rest of us saw your post?

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.

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 :)

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

[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.

You can download the trial creator at their site.

I played with it all yesterday afternoon. I'm already afraid of how addictive the actual game might be.

[cindyanne1.livejournal.com]

Or if you don't want to put it in the game, just run it and let it play in the background while you play the sims with the volume down. :D It's totally worth it...

I actually made a really really stupid youtube video of it back when my Aerin was still married to Pascal and the two of them plus Gideon went to the Islands on a vacation.

If you want to watch and giggle... http://cindyanne1.livejournal.com/20860.html

It would have looked better from another angle, but I was frustrated with how s...l...o...w the video capture was and I didn't want to pan the camera around. *blush*

[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]

Oooh. I'm going to give it a try later. Looks like a lot of fun.

[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.)

[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

[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?)

[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;

[saunasims.livejournal.com]

Ack, sorry! I meant hairSTYLE, not haircut! I think the 'do makes him look really good, it softens his features (killer cheekbones) and frames his eyes and such stuff. /endgirly
Franwi's got it! And yes, it's insanely addictive. I was up 'til four AM just making and remaking.

[zepheera.livejournal.com]

I believe you have to learn it, and then SING it with the ghost before your sim knows it for good

[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.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Beau does have killer cheekbones and a very gaunt face, and also a large chin. He has a similar face to the one Nervous Subject has, in many ways. I think he's cute too, and I do like that mop of hair on him.

I did download it afterwards, but now I'm freaked out about SecurRom being on my computer. I didn't even think to worry about it until I had already downloaded it, but so far, there are no issues.

It's a LOT of fun. :D
