ink_sec_simsAnd here's the last update of our current cycle! So let's see how the Turrets & Wheatley are doing:
Gary: Isn't the whole reason we have Wheatley is so he can do crap like this?
Wheatley's got his carpool coming up first, and you're almost done. Quit your bitchin'.
Wheatley: I'm just saying, those vacation neighborhoods haven't been touched yet, as far as I know. . .
Steve: I'm pretty sure she's saving vacations for honeymoons.
Yeah, which means Doc will be taking one first. I'll keep you guys in mind for the next one, though.
If that's supposed to be Chell, you really need some art lessons.
Wheatley: Hey! We can't all be Rattmann!
Cripes! Steve, why are you playing chess instead of cleaning that tub?!
Steve: Because you told me to play chess, and because Gary and Wheatley are the ones with wants to learn cleaning?
Damn your logic.
Congratulations on getting a chance card promotion, Wheatley! Substitute Teacher, nice.
Wheatley: Er, thanks, but -- why did they send me home early?
They do that whenever somebody gets promoted via chance card. Just enjoy the extra time off.
Steve: Argh! When the hell is this stupid car going to be done?
Steve: Oh. Right now?
Almost -- let's wait until Gary gets home to paint it.
Steve: Fair enough. Can I get inside so my feet don't freeze now?
Wheatley: Wow, being promoted must make you smarter! I'm learning Cleaning really fast!
Actually, that's the Eureka Lifetime Benefit.
Wheatley: Still bloody amazing!
Yes!
Steve: No, I'm not calling from the local private school. I'm calling because the Voice Behind The Screen wants me to keep you as a family friend for some reason. Promotion junk I think.
Steve: I don't know why, though. Your -- nephew? Grandson? He's related to you, Aspir, I know that much -- ruined my date with Natasha Una!
Steve: He's a date burglar. He should become a Criminal Mastermind and have a whole network of evil minions ruining dates. Anyway, nice chat, talk to you later!
Ahhh, the disconnect between the story the creator imposes and what's actually happening between Sims.
Wheatley: Wow! I've learned so much about Cleaning, I can actually see the stink lines coming off Steve! Who's a moron now?
*doesn't have the heart to correct him*
Hey, Lakshmi! Wheatley kindly greets her so Steve can have some time with his pal after he gets out of the tub.
Lakshmi: And so my stock options went through the roof!
Wheatley: That's great! But -- I thought you were telling me a joke. How is that funny?
Lakshmi: I dunno. Laugh anyway.
Having fun, Gary?
Gary: So many knitting articles. . .
Steve: And then I lightly braised the steak. . .
Townies: YOU ARE IN OUR WAY SIR. YOU ARE IN OUR WAY SIR.
Townie: YOU'RE STANDING IN MY WAY.
Steve: Sheesh, fine, just making a best friend here, don't mind me. . .
Gary: These fumes are probably doing something horrible to my brain.
Since when do Sims have brains?
And it's a car! Stop bugging me to buy you one now!
Celebrating cardom with berry pie?
Steve: Yeah, none of us are really that much into cake anymore.
Can't blame you.
How is this a tough handshake? I don't see anything tough about it. Except getting a good camera angle to properly photograph it.
Brooke Bradshaw: For a guy, you know a lot about makeup!
Gary: Well, one of my roommates has an interest. . .
Oh shit! Sorry, Steve! I'd forgotten about the Thinking Cap failing sometimes if you wore it in the green!
Steve: L-least it. . .didn't t-take away. . .any s-skills I need. . .f-for my job. . .
*sniff* I feel like such a failure as a Sim parent.
Wheatley: This "Eureka!" thing is fantastic! I feel like a bloody genius! Look at how high my Aspiration is!
Not helping, Wheatley!
So, I had you say hello to judge her on her attractiveness. What do you think?
Gary: Meh. And I'm saying this with full knowledge that she's my boss's cousin and is getting me a promotion.
Okay then, send her on her way.
*would sing "Pinball Wizard" but has no idea what the lyrics are* So, that's our update for the day! I hope you enjoyed it!
Steve: *crawling into bed* I sure as hell didn't! Why am I suddenly the buttmonkey of this household?

Will getting a bubble blower stop your whining?
Steve: It's a start.
Anyway, hope you liked that! Like I said yesterday, October is probably going to be light on updates thanks to "American McGee's Alice" and "Alice: Madness Returns," but we'll see what happens. Next up is EMMETT BROWN, TECHNO-WARLOCK and probably a wedding of some description! Imagine that! Until then, toodles!
