So, what's up?

Nothing.

I wish nothing was up. Oh well. Can't be helped.

Nothing is bliss.

I can picture Illya sitting/relaxing on a carton, with her legs ontop of another and her laptop on her lap.
And when someone asks her if shes going to get to unpacking/moving in... She'll simply state that She just did, "Got my net and my laptop running. Life's all good so you can go ahead and move stuff around for later if you want to."...

Then someone goes about and cuts off the net connection and you're like, "Noooo!!! darn it, I don't have a bed yet to lay down / laze about on till the net comes back on." Where's the sofa wrapped in plastic when you need one. It's the easiest thing to unpack/unwrap and be done with everything else till next time one feels like doing some more. XD

Lol. I'd love to do that (and I readily admit getting internet on is the most important thing), but unfortunately, I can't afford to do that. I'm going to have to do all of it myself. I've done the kitchen and bathroom so far, and am now working on my bedroom. I'm a neat-freak and germaphobe, so it's a tougher deal than for most.

Enjoy your new life.

Yeah, I'll try.

Germaphobe & a neat-freak... May your soul rest in peace
lol I hope you have good neighbors who are willing to help, just for the sake of helping.. but then also they would not get offended when you close the door on their backs once the house is set XD
"Thanks for everything but I'm soooo tired now and I hope I could invite you for thanks-giving but hopefully next time " (Next time never arrives as you keep handing over rain-cheques ) You need you space after all.

While searching for "Water Pipes" for work... I found this picture

I have one neighbor, a lady who lives below me with her special needs kid. But I don't like asking for help in these sort of situations as I am also controlling and like to make sure I see everything being cleaned or put away.

Yes, I know. I make life hard on myself.

Huh...

Hard is fun.

So, Inuyasha tonight? I need some lightheartedness.

Ah sorry, I'll be busy.

Here's that funny and surprising picture that I tried linking before

Spoiler:

Oh, that's okay. :0

I'd love to know the circumstances behind that picture lol.

Couldn't find Mario's number, so thought it would do its own plumbing  : D

He was off saving Peach, and Luigi was busy exorcising mansions.

And Sonic was off chasing after golden rings. (This is a furry after all, so it fits better in Sonic franchise or a crossover )

Except that Sonic isn't a plumber. Just a kleptomaniac.

speaking of kleptomaniacs.. that is a very good attribute to have in THE SIMS games (3 onwards).

Everyday or by interactions, you get "free" stuff. Just hold on to that money and wait for the big items like, bringing home Bathtubs, TV's, Sofas and what not  

(Beds, fridges and counter-tops can not be nicked which I find to be strange as one could steal humongous statues/sculptures

(Klepto's can also not steal barbeque grills from the public park or swings; Possibly these items are somewhat grounded, as in in real life situations.)

The Bed/sofa can be pushed about in real life but for a Fridge(some) they might be linked with water pipes for instant ice cube makings so it isn't practical or easy to move about quickly "unnoticed".
(The Public grill could be bolted into the ground too)
(The Counters can be glued into the walls)

A klepto can even "borrow" those parked expensive cars so yeah, that's quite the feat XD.

One hitch of playing a klepto; If you want to have higher success rate of getting the items, you need to advance in your day/night job/selected career. The higher the ladder you climb, the better chance of grabbing the item (from the general area that you tell your sim to steal from) you want.

I've had a few bad lucks when I tried stealing a car from infront of a gym and instead pocketed the street lamp... then again I used that lamp to light up my porch XD Once all the street lamps were gone from around the car, I then was able to get the car (though it could be possible that I leveled up during the time it took me to blacken out the street infront of the gym

All in all, The Sims is a fun game to play, from time to time, cause sooner or later it may become repetitive. I've always played it on and off so had fun times every time

I'm not sure what exactly Sonic does with all those rings anyway. I mean, Crash Bandicoot presumably eats the wumpa fruit. Does Sonic sell to jewelry stores?

I never understood the appeal of the sims.

I suppose all rpg protagonists are kleptos, as well as burglars. And arguably poachers lol.

From what little episodes (random series) of Sonic that I have watched, The rings can be used to power him up (speed,strength)

Sims is okay to get an idea of life (might not be accurate but still). My cousin played it long time ago with my brother, to see how two bachelors can live together, take a job, pay bills, etc.

Now he lives in a shared apartment, has a home-job (graphic artist), pays his bills, has friends over, goes out to the community lots, is on good standings with neighbors, living a simple, stress less, easy life.

Those RPG characters, they just walk right in, pick up anything they fancy, walk right out, throw away the items they just nicked earlier onto the road, just so that they can pick up newer items that they made space for..... atleast go back and place the "stolen" items back into the owners house
Lol there really needs to be some AI where the NPC argue with these "intruder heroes". sure they are there to save the world or what not but, don't ruin the lives of those who admire you

I would love to see an rpg that played realistically in that people would lock their doors, and forcing your way in and kicking their stuff could get you imprisoned or beat you with the moral alignment stick.

Dragons Dogma: Night time, the shops, houses, church, etc are closed (the doors are shut and you cannot enter) (some gates can be opened by using a skeleton key(one time consumable item) which are hard to find.)

If my memory serves me correctly then in:
Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim: You can simply pick-lock the house (at night), enter and do whatever you want.


But yes, I yet to see a game where the house/shop owners, chase you out for entering restricted areas XD. (the entire village do that if you attack one of them. So you are left to sneak in at night time and steal from the shops or pantry to get any display item )

For crimes in both Dogma and Skyrim, you are sent to Prison and have different ways of escape or bide time.

Hmm, interesting.

I don't really play western rpgs though.
