I learned that my Sim is unique. Not in a phsyical sense. Not in a mind sense either. In a magic sense. Here's the story.
I was doing my whole check-out-other-people's-houses-and-hang-out thing this afternoon, and I went to use the workout machine. So when I click on it, intead of "Work Out", I see "Repair". So the thing's broken. And I wanted to use it. I click "Repair", and pay the small fee to fix it. Instead of getting out my trusty SimWrench, I hold out my hands and lightening bolts shoot out from them! This surprised me, and everyone around me, too. I immediatly had my Sim stop, because I thought there was something wrong with him. I run up to the broken trash compactor. I click "Repair" again, and pay the fee, again (what I don't get is if your in your own house, you have to pay to fix it your self too). Once again, lightening shoots out of my Sim's hands, and I just let him sit there, magically reapiring the stove, taking it slow because he doesn't have any mech points. Then this guy come up to me and does the same thing; to the stove. He finishes much quicker, and tells me he has a lot of mech points. I check his Sim profile, and he does. His bar is filled. I stare at the computer a few seconds, my Sim still gasping and groaning, fingers, hands, and arms flying about in a semi-circular motion. And the worst part is that the owner didn't pay me for the work! I kept asking him to pay me what I deserved, and he booted me out of his house!
The rest of the afternoon, I made new friends, hung out at a few new places. When I got home, there was a new roomie, a girl. Once again, I forgot her name. She was totally rearrangeing the house! I was furious, because she was about to ruin my new cafe and the library and office were next! I mailed Revamped and complained, because he was offline. And one of my other roomies came into the house, the one I hadn't met yet, abba. I left a few minutes after she got on, so we didn't get to know each other all that well, if at all.
So that was my third experiance with TSO, and I was quite unhappy when I left the game for the night, at about 8:30. This is Chris Dubya, Siming off!
