True, any gathering of current or former “theatre kids” is going to be weird. But that’s what makes them so fun. (Unless you hate show tunes. Then you’re in for a bad time.)

Maybe HOA members need to be introduced to kink. There’s a safe way to dom, folks!

I wouldn’t be surprised if prudish repression underlies a lot of their decisions too. Oh, the world we could live in if uptight people could simply indulge in powerplay kink now and then.

Okay, this is something I'm going to have to test. This article left me with more questions than answers, especially when the writer claimed that pregnant sims can't woohoo or take a pregnancy test. I can't tell if they mean since this patch pregnant sims can't do those things, or if they haven't played the game enough to know that those things are false. The fact there's a question mark in parentheses doesn't help.

Also, the screenshot showing a child not be able to do something because they're "pregnant" doesn't necessarily mean the sim is pregnant - it could well be a bug related to how the menu is displayed, which sounds possible since it seems to be occuring across the board. The article is about sims being pregnant, but not about them having babies, and I find that an odd distinction.

But I have this game, and the patch is already downloaded. Let's see if I'm a lucky winner and this bug shows up.

To game for science!

Edit: I tried with a fresh, new, mod-free game file. I tried with an old game file both with and without mods. Alas, I was unable to recreate this glitch in my game.

FYI, the Sims 4 version is Wicked Whims.

But I find mods in generally have become difficult to maintain since EA starting putting out a new patch seemingly every week.

When he was 2, one of my nephews decided to name my tits after the main characters of his favorite TV show. I thought it was so funny that I still introduce them to partners as Bingo and Rolly.

Damn, Uncle for the win!

Hey man, I appreciate your post for setting an amazing example of what being a father is. Some young men are reading this and seeing all these supportive comments, and that's going to inform how they behave if they become fathers someday. So, thank you for posting your question. It'll probably end up helping a lot more people than just your son.

I remember showering with my little brother. We would pretend we were puppies, taking turns "playing in the rain." (It was a shower-tub combo, so the shower stream only covered one half of the tub.)

Contrast this to my mom, who taught me how to shave my legs but who forbid me from "shaving above the knee."

That ended when I went to school in shorts and the bullies saw my thigh hair glistening in the sun.

It ended two years later, when I met a cool girl who didn't shave if she didn't feel like it, rocking her hairy legs without a care.

I'm still not that bold, but I found a balance that works for me. Nobody else's opinion matters.

My god, that sounds freeing.

Seriously. "Excuse me, Mom. You put what into where?!"

If your son came to you asking for help, don’t overthink. Do the right thing and help him out, regardless of what he wants to shave.

This should be stitched into a throw pillow. The first sentence on one side, the second sentence on the other side.

It could work for so many occasions.

Shit, you're right. I bet all the properties will have a corporate sponsor. Like, "McDonald's™ on Ventnor Avenue" or "Walmart™ of Baltic Avenue" (because let's be real, Baltic Avenue would totally have a Walmart.) Companies would go into bidding wars to get put on Boardwalk or Park Place.

Hey internet: this right here ^ is how you respond when you encounter new information after a disagreement. It's totally okay to admit not having known something before. You don't have to double-down on your ignorance or go off at some stranger.

We're all just people, learning all the time. It's cool.

Anyway, thanks for responding like a reasonable person, OP.

I knew a 17 year old girl who was homeschooled and didn’t know what a “prime number” was. Surprise surprise, her mom was a bible-thumper (and the girl was a closeted atheist.)

Honestly, if my parents had any idea how many creeps were on AOL, I probably would’ve been banned from it. We’re like the “grew up with no seatbelts and survived” version of internet users.

Imagine being guaranteed to buy a house. Or being guaranteed to get married. Or being guaranteed to retire…

Even the disclaimer implies we’re irresponsible. That’s a weird age limit, too.

Might as well flip the board, because the bank’s gonna charge you for an overdraft if you don’t.

Ah, the good ol’ days, when my friend’s computer would get jacked up from Bonzai Buddy because she thought it was too cute.

I thought it was weird and didn’t care for it, so I never put it on my family’s computer. After it was discovered to be spyware, I felt vindicated.
