Has anybody else found that their sims are WAY more interested in writing in their diaries than they used to be?
I have a guy whose "natural" hobby is Fitness, and the two hobbies that he's maximized are Arts & Crafts and Cooking. You'll notice that none of these is Film & Literature. Yet if I leave him alone for a second, he makes a beeline for the bookcase and writes in his diary till the cows come home. And he's not low on social, so he's not using it to fill that need; he's just obsessed with his diary. His wife is writing in her diary a lot more than any sim I saw before FT came out, though she's not quite as obsessive as he is.
Anybody else having this happen?

I'm glad this isn't just me. My sims used to annoy me by writing in their diaries before FT, now they drive me crazy with it. One of them started doing it as his birthday party the other day!

I never let my sims alone long enough for them to do this. In my case, they beeline to the ballet bar and the computer.

Yay!! Sorry about the tummy ache! But thanks for the jump! I never let my sims alone long enough for them to do this. In my case, they beeline to the ballet bar and the computer.
That darn ballet bar! Any time I put it in a house the whole family swarms to it. I have finally just stuck it in a comm lot gym so they really can only use it when I say so.

I want people to stop saying, "Son of a bitch". Instead we should say "Son of an ASS" because that is more accurate. Spread the word!

The ballet bar has been removed from my homes, as guests beeline for it as well and then take forever and a day to get off of it. 1 Fun my ass, most of my sims lose fun on it. Might be the next best thing to a hot tub for ticket businesses, though.

They really should freaking make the ballet bar more fun if they like it so much.
The reward one, too! What is WITH that thing? One crappy-ass reward...

Yeah, am I right is supposing that the only difference is that they can do ballet exercises on it? Or did I stop using the regular one too early?

All of the new career rewards are "meh" at best. I was playing around with the Intelligence spy gadget thingy and aside from a small boost to fun and social, all I got was a pop-up that said "That sounded like a ghost!" and then the guy put it down. wtf? The koi pond is okay but it reminds me too much of the ponds my daughter has for her Webkinz. Plus the edges on it aren't transparent so it doesn't match the terrain.

Miss Corylea, I have a wonderful site you might like, called "A Cuppa Joe". Would you like a link? They like giggles there.

I gather that you *don't* like giggles. Well, you don't have to. Just close your eyes when you see one coming.

Well, we could do that. Or I could EAT YOUR HEAD. Which clearly would not be at all fattening, since air is not high in calories.

I knew there was a good reason that I voted yes in your recent senate election.

*rolls eyes* *yawns* I guess people usually run away and cry when you pretend to be fierce and scary. Personally, I think it's mildly amusing, but then, I have a sense of humor.

* jsalemi sharpens the pointy sticks to poke the balloon head. Laughing is taboo on MATY? Don't you find that rather grim? Personally, I find that there are some days when laughing is the only thing that gets a person through. I mean, if we didn't laugh at W., we'd all have committed either suicide or murder by now, maybe both. I'm a clinical psychologist, and when I was in training, one of my interviews for internship was at a place where the interviewer said, "I notice that you've seen a lot of incest survivors. That's really heavy work -- how do you keep yourself sane?" And I thought, "Well, she's probably not gonna like this, but it's the truth, so I'll say it anyway." And I said, "Mostly through a rather dark sense of humor." And she beamed and said, "Oh, that's good; humor is the best defense against the bad stuff." There you go, free advice, worth every penny. :-)

Giggling is confined to Retardo Land for a reason. Humor or not, giggling and your subsequent defense is off-topic and annoying. Go run along and play. This is grownup territory. No 12 allowed.

Humour is very much allowed here. In fact, it's required for RL. There are several amusing posts in this thread by regulars.
Maybe you just don't get the MATY sense of humour.

I think, rather, that they don't get mine. But they will. People usually catch on after awhile.

I find it interesting that Corylea expects MATY to change to meet her expectations and humor standards. Can we kill it now?
