Sims.
Are the Sims considered a fandom? ( read: I will relocate this if they're not. )

The Sims2 message boards are generally a melting pot of idiots from all over the globe.

Anyway. It starts when BBS user AceOfBaseSims/Rachel makes the

Because there are no good ones here. One about Puck and Romeo in Veronaville would be interesting, and something I'd definitely read. And a gay version of the Chad Slacker Diaries, only instead of Chad Slacker who is a male, the sim be a female named Jennifer Bronstein? Oh, how about make Sirius and Remus, and have them be lovers and write an romance album about them that's good and not a TRAGEDY? I hate tragedys. Yes, I know Sirius died, but that's no excuse to make it a TRAGEDY.

If not.................I could always make those albums. Whaddya think, Sounds good? Good! I hope someone makes these albums I mentioned. I'd definitely read them.
Love ya, bye!

post titled "Could anyone make gay and lesbian sim stories that don't suck? Thanks", which is met with almost instant homophobia and bad spelling. It goes on and on, and - you guessed it - ON, containing such gems as

Which is why George Bush needs to stay in office otherwise John Kerry is gonna turn this country gay by allowing Gay marriages. Gay people kill off reproduction. If everyone was gay there wouldnt be everyone because there would be no offspring. Just thinking about a man under the covers with another man in the poo poo sewer......*PUKE*
Adam and Eve and not Adam and Steve


and others.

I'm not sure if people not registered to the BBS can actually see the thread, and when I just checked it, it said it was deleted, so you can see a copy of the website here. Just scroll down to the message boxes.

And yet, it actually makes a change from the thousands of posts saying "Will the Sims 2 work on my computer if I make the gerbils run really fast?"

On b.net we have the saying that if idiots could fly, battle.net would be an airport. I'm sure Sims2 forums at least have a terminal there (or are in charge of the runways).

Ooooh, Sims drama!

The only thing I have to add is that this site for the original game actually has a couple named Adam and Steve. Oppressed by the Eval PR, no less!

It always baffles me how people will exclaim "If we allow gays to marry, everyone will be gay!". Because....um....if the person is complaining, they are obviously not gay. And there's lots of other people on the planet that...aren't gay. And unless this person thinks that the world is populated entirely by gay people that were just waiting for the get-go to marry...

Gay people kill off reproduction. If everyone was gay there wouldnt be everyone because there would be no offspring.

Thus depriving the world of stupid people with internet connections? Oh the horror!

That immaturity had me so bad I almost snorted Club Orange out of my nose. I'm so stealing the phrase "Adam and Steve"

"We can't have gays, in the beginning it was only Adam and Eve!"
"What? Haven't you heard about Adam and Steve?"

"If everyone was gay there wouldn't be everyone"
Oh..too easy.

In my history of English class we were reading an Old English version, and it said that on the sixth day, God created all the animals and things that walk on four feet and the "twêgen men Adam and Êuan". So it's not Adam and Steve. It's Adam and Ewan. And you can thank me, because I've already cast Ewan McGregor as the second man. Since he's from Adam's rib, he's on bottom.

Also, what study was it that said that homophobic straight men were more aroused by gay porn than non-homophobic straight men?

Which is why George Bush needs to stay in office otherwise John Kerry is gonna turn this country gay by allowing Gay marriages.

Actually, neither Bush nor Kerry are in favor of gay marriage, technically -- Kerry only supports civil unions. Which means I really fear this person voting, if they are uninformed.

Gay people kill off reproduction.

Not with Mad Science they don't! ::chuckles madly::

*wanky* I just wish people would stop writing the same tired drivel about Mary Sue, the beautiful college graduate (traumatic past optional) who moves to a small town and fucks every(male)body in sight before settling on Gary Stu and having eightybillion children.

...or the Super Slut who just needs a good man and a few kids to make her life better.

This just reminds me of the time my mother asked me if it was true that the Sims did "inappropriate things."

My sister and I told her that it was just kissing because we didn't feel she was ready to hear about "playing" in the hot tub. Or about the steamy relationship we'd created for Scorpian and Sub-Zero.

When I found out you could have gay marriage in the Sims 2, I freaked out.

...Because I had already gone ahead and wasted my time on het roommates, and my brother stole my story idea of the goth and the renfaire pirate and their true love.

Oh, how about make Sirius and Remus, and have them be lovers

Oh, THERE'S an original idea. ((gags))

While I might theoretically support this person's point (good slash = good thing to have), I'm repelled by the fifteen-year-old, "Hey, I have a story idea, how about you write it and I take half credit" approach. As someone wiser than I once said, 'it takes five minutes to summarise a story, and a year to write it. That's not a fair division of labour.'

Not to mention that her ideas are, well, not really plot ideas. They're more... well, they're the parking lot in front of the trail that leads to the Mountains of Story Plot.

Cause there's no such thing as in vitro fertilization, surrogate mothers, sperm banks, and test tube babies.

Sadly, there are some really YOUNG people on the Sims2 boards. Is there a cut off age? I know I've run into thirteen and fourteen year olds, and there's always a bunch of biblethumpers ranting about how Maxis just HAS to release a "The Sims Find Religion" Expansion Pack. Or Mothers who want WooHoo and Playing In HotTub removed because their seven year old wants to play Sims2, and OMG! It's disgusting for Sims to WooHoo, and especially if they're gay. I keep having to resist suggesting they tell their kid to play "Ernie's Big Splash" until they're old enough to understand that sex is a part of life, and that OMG! That's where babies come from!

The Sims2 boards BUG ME, so why do I keep crawling back?
