Welcome back to the Uglacies, a legacy that was nearly trashed. When last I tried to go into their home the lot was corrupted. Ugh. But I figured out some downloaded CC was the culprit. I have not figured out exactly which one is the culprit, but I am working on it. In the meantime, I got the household up and working again. Yay me. So let’s dive in. Here is Louise, our current heir to the throne. Still a romance sim, but now satisfied with 20 lovers, she can focus on more important tasks like dumping the trash. Being heir is a glamorous job after all.
“Who said I was satisfied? Have you read my want panel lately?”
Little Seth appeared at the end of my last chapter. Now I wanted to make fun of Bruce’s parenting because he frankly reeks of loser… but alas, Bruce proved me wrong.
“Weee. I love babies. Behold my platinum plumbob!”
OH WOW! Are those aspiration points?! Why I don’t think I’ve seen those in an Uglacy interacting with their own child since Don was around.
“Bruce, can grandma hold the baby for a while? I’m a family sim too.”
“No buzz off. Get your own kid.”
With three family sims in the house, there is a constant fight for the baby.
“Fine, Jihoon and I will just make out then.”
“Please, not in front of my baby. So not cool. And you guys call yourself family sims?!”
“How do you think we got to be family sims, kiss me baby.”
“PUKE! This is the 5th time I have told you to get in the fricking tub! You smell like… well puke.”
Yes, the dogs are still here, in case you were wondering. Like a plague of pain.
“I could be doing other things, like the neighbors for example. But nooo, I have to wash the dog.”
“Oh Jihoon, you are so cute.”
“Wendy, my darling bride…”
Geesh guys, get a room, or better yet… GARDEN! They won’t keep their hands off each other.
“Oh and some poor plants have to live in the city, with all that yucky pollution… but not my precious tomato plants. Talk to momma. Thrive my babies, thrive.”
The only thing that needs more attention than pets and babies… plants. Gardening, second biggest pain in ass next to pets. All day they are out there and the gardener doesn’t leave till midnight. Not that she does much more then water everything that being watered by the sprinkler and creates more weeds for the Uglacies. Ongoing nightmare of botany.
“Bowl head kid from high school that was my first kiss.”
“Louise, you got boobs!”
As if this guy’s appearance could get any worse. Whoops, it did.
“Woah I like it. I look good in prostitute red.”
“Yeah, yea, and the purple makes your eyes pop.”
“Do you think I could get a downloaded haircut?”
“Sorry kiddo, we don’t waste those haircuts on townies.”
Meanwhile, down at Angel’s Flower Shop…talk about a “hard sell”…
“Look lady, back off, your lack of eyebrows and makeup is scaring me.”
Believe it or not this is Tiffany Uglacy, who we hired to manage Angel’s Flowers, but whenever she changes into a uniform, she instantly loses her eyebrows and make up, and she gets a new face.
Yea, that’s disturbing, but I have no idea how to fix it.
Not that it stops us from getting the Best of the Best award…
“Wow, I bet she is the best of the best from what I hear.” *drrrooool*
Buzz off creep-o, she already has an ugly spouse. Maybe next chapter.
Zombie Potheads is a rank 10 business now as well. We sell pottery folks, please. This is a G-rated game. I haven’t even taken the blur censors off. Mainly because I don’t want to see the Uglacies naked, but I like pretend I have standards.
“Grandma Samara, what an honor it is to dazzle you with my salesman ability.”
“Do you have black roses, preferably dead. I want to surprise Don.”
I think Louise looks a lot like her grandma Samara, kind of a throwback, and Samara seems to like her a lot too. More then she did her own kids, but then Samara liked anyone more then she did her own kids.
“Darling, let me talk to you for 5 hours straight about business perks and you won’t get more then a quarter way completed… even if it is Fall. Blah blah blah, timecards, blah blah blah, motivation, blah, blah, blah…”
OH SCREW THIS. She will just get her business perks the old fashion way, having a business!
We buy the corner shop in Blue Water. It looks like a store, but we can rearrange it to a beauty shop. Ignore the crappy picture, and the fact that Louise wants to woohoo 5 service sims and “befriend” 3 guys in town.
Who cares if Louise only has a bronze badge and hasn’t earned her cosmetology license.
“How about a free haircut?!”
“Sounds great!”
“I just need you to sign this release of liability form first, minor details of course. You know, like all your hair falling out, going blind from chemicals reactions, me cutting off an ear…no biggie.”
Yup free haircuts. You get what you paid for. We call this style El Choppo.
Back at home it’s time for a birthday… OH boy are you as excited as I am? Don comes to all our parties because well, they rock if he’s there.
*sigh* Uglacies are so much harder than Prettacies. I know, I’ve done both. Seth is okay looking. A little weird in the mouth, but no where near true ugly. Even Jihoon and Lisa look away, obviously disappointed. Gads, more baby making in the near future.
“Waah, the mean lady says I’m not ugly enough.”
“There, there, Seth. You’re ugly enough for Nana.”
Have I mentioned that Bruce and Shaun have some kind of hate fest going on since college?
“HOW dare you come to my son’s birthday party you loser.”
“I don’t know what my sister sees in you, Bruce. You can’t even make ugly kids.”
The one thing I do right in my legacies… parties. I think I should get a point for every roof raiser, all I have to do is stick Don and a bottle of champagne at the party.
Time to get that lazy good for nothing doing something. Bruce rolled a want to plant seeds… you go Johnny Appleseed.
“I wanted to plant one seed. I didn’t say I wanted to be out here weeding all flipping day!”
I aim to make my sims happy.
We interrupt this legacy in progress to bring you a word from our sponsors…
“WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! I know WordPress has been adding advertisements, but Gage?! And what is he selling? It better NOT be some escort service. He’s got some explaining to do! Just as soon as I wash my eyes out with soap!”
“Okay Gage, Fess up. What the boolprop is going on? There I was writing my legacy, minding my own business, and suddenly this ad pops up. Mojo?! What is Mojo? Are you doing what I think you’re doing?! Cause I might get a little risque and cuss a bit, but I tend to keep my legacy clean, and I’ll have none of that…”
“Baby, woah, you got me all wrong. Don’t you know how classy the Gagemeister is by now.”
“That’s the problem, I do. Gage, I’m getting a migraine from all this animal print. Classy and you do not go in the same sentence. Hey, Gage, eyes up here.”
“Sorry darling, but that is a low cut sweater. So yea, I just decided it’s been kind of boring with the lack of simselfs, and I needed to branch out. It was selfish of me to keep all my mojo to myself. The ad says it all.”
“Gage, it’s a weird black and white ad of you in your underwear advertising one word, it makes no sense… oh… oh wait, it’s a cologne ad, isn’t it. Either that or a condom ad.”
“No, baby you got it right, it’s a cologne. But it wasn’t easy extracting my Mojo for a cologne.”
“Really? Tell me it was painful. That would make my day.”
“Nope, it wasn’t painful. It’s just my mojo is special, and it took a special kind of magic. It all started a few days ago…”
“Michelle came over. It’s been so long since I had a simself that appreciated my irresistible good looks and charms. But that Michelle has taste.”
“Michelle Young? She writes the Alphabetepic Apocalypse, Xtreme Xavier Apocalypse, GageNation and she downloaded you recently. Oh dear, I should have seen the signs. She was visiting you way too much, and boy did she like your hot tub. I just never see it, because I don’t get the attraction at all.”
“Well there’s no cure for Gage fever, baby. Except for a big old dose of Gage. So she showed up here, with a special fan shirt she had made just for me. And you know me, I can’t resist those pretty simself ladies… she asked me what my secret was, and I told her.”
“Mojo, baby. It’s all in my mojo.”
“And that’s when I had an idea!”
“HAHAHA, you had an idea, good one Gage. You’ve never had an idea in your life, unless it involved a sim self and a hot tub.”
“HEY, I’ll have you know I am very intellectual. I’m not all just good looks you know. Anyway, I had an idea…”
“Michelle, if I could harness my mojo, and market it, I’d make millions!”
“Yes, Gage, yes, I can see it all now!”
“Aww but it’s all a pipe dream, darling. No one can harness the power of Gage.”
*POOF & insert theme music from Bewitched. “Actually Gage, I think I can.”
“Woah, you’re a witch!”
“Yes, that’s right, Captain Obvious.”
“So are you a good witch, or a bad witch?”
“Let’s just say I’m a good witch who can be bad… hee hee.”
“Now stand very, very still.”
“Er, this isn’t going to hurt is it… and don’t zap off any of the Gagemeister’s mojo making parts, if you know what I mean, witchy-poo. We might need those for later.”
“Let’s see, Mojo cologne. I need a little eye of newt, salamander tail, oh and corn syrup. Geesh that crap’s in everything now days. Well that’s okay, because we all know boys and girls that corn syrup is made from wholesome GMO corn, and it’s good for you.”
“It worked, Gage, and it smells a little like Old Spice, 3 day socks, and cotton candy. I think that was the corn syrup. So what do you want to do now?”
“Hmm. I have another idea.”
“OKAY, OKAY. That’s enough Gage. I get the picture. So that’s it? You two concocted some essence from you… that I don’t even want to know where that secretion came from, and made a cologne?”
“Yea, Baby. Want to sniff it?”
“Absolutely fricking not. I don’t know about this, it sounds like a plan that could go very, very bad.”
“Come on baby, don’t micro manage me like that. Didn’t I help you with Don when he was all ticked off at you?”
“Well that’s true. But I donno.”
“I just want to have a little downtown business, sell some cologne, impress the ladies. Pleeasseee… pretty please?”
“Okay, fine, fine. But this better not come back to bite me in the ass.”
“It won’t, it won’t. Well I can, if you want me to…”
“GAGE! I mean it. And keep those advertisements to a minimum. And shorts on mister. I better not have any nude pics of you popping up on my legacy.”
“Sheesh, give me some credit. It would drive the ladies wild if I gave a full frontal. Plus you still have that stupid blur censor on… and there isn’t enough blur…”
“UGH, I’m leaving. Not talking about this. Which reminds me, I’m moving out. I need my own space now, and this bachelor pad is becoming a bit much. I need to focus on my legacy writing.”
“Sure, sure, sweetheart. I understand. Hard to hold yourself back from me. I get it.”
“So Wendy, we’ve been married 50 years now. Can you tell me the family secret of Don’s chili?”
“Well I could Jihoon, but then I would have to kill you.”
“Heh, heh, that’s a joke right… Wendy?”
Uh oh, Baboon don’t look now…
“It’s Jihoon. Are you ever going to get my name right sometime in my lifetime?!”
I highly doubt it at this point.
“Ahem. Jihoon Uglacy, you have lived a very good life… well sort of, as good as it gets for legacy sims, and we’ve come to take you to that happy sim place in the sky.”
“Here is your complimentary Pina Colada and the Bella twins will now exhibit their side boob show.”
Seriously, those coconuts don’t cover much.
Woah. Way to leave Lisa out of the will. Talk about a forgotten spare.
“WAAAH. I can’t believe he’s gone!My sweet, sweet monkey man.”
Wendy took it very hard. She actually loved her hubby. She soon got to the point of losing her sanity.
“I will scrub the dirt until it is clean enough to sparkle for his grave.”
Just when you think you’ve seen every sims 2 interaction there is, the game gives you new material.
“Hey mom, I came over to check on the dogs. Hey Lulu and Puke! Are you guys feeding them?”
“Sure, at least once a week, Lisa. By the way, dad died, but he didn’t leave you shit.”
😦 True story-all the dogs love Lisa. She was the only one who paid any attention to them.
In other news, Puke nearly died. He liked laying in the big windows, and unfortunately became stuck there and nearly died from starvation. I had to use reset… *gasp**
Are the glitches returning as we spiral into the fifth generation and are half way there. Only time will tell.
And Bruce takes a job in the slacker profession just to get this “Special plant” nursery.
“Grow, my little bubble plants, grow…”
Then Bailey the White Wolf came by and kicked Puke’s butt. Then had to brag non-stop.
“Yea, and my brother is Ghost on Game of Thrones…”
Aw time for another birthday… gone horribly wrong. It started nicely, all the Uglacies had come over to see little Seth grow up.
“Wow, I grew up awesome! This is the best birthday party ever!”
And that was when the Grim Reaper came through the wall and cut grandma in half.
“Really Grim, you couldn’t wait till my grandson’s birthday party was over?”
“Death waits for no one Mrs. Uglacy. Besides, sometimes people give me cake.”
“NOoo, please Mr. Grim Reaper, don’t take my grammy.”
“Sorry kid. Happy Birthday by the way.”
Seriously? I would have though grandma dying in the middle of the party would have dampened the festivities a little bit.
Seth immediately gets a makeover fitting to a crazy scientist nerdy smart look that was his namesake. (Seth was named for Seth the scientist on The Fly). Seth is a Sagittarius, 4/4/9/7/1. Basically a hyperactive, playful asshole.
Not content with just grandma’s death at the party, Shaun immediately latches on to Annabella and tries to kill her, by loving her to death.
“Oh my little niece, I am going to love you and hold you forever and ever.”
“WAAAAH, I need food and I’ve crapped myself!”
“Hey sis, I think this one’s broken. It doesn’t stop crying.”
“Oh you have to feed them these things called bottles.”
“Mommy, save me.”
“Shaun, hand me the baby and back away.”
“No! I want to stand here and watch your child starve in a diaper of her own filth while holding her lovingly.”
Finally Shaun gives up and throws his niece on the floor. Where she apparently was melting into the carpeting.
“FOR the LOVE of GOD, somebody feed me.”
Meanwhile, in the dining room…
“OH my little nephew Chucky, you are so cute. Why do you smell like that. Let Aunt Tiffany hold you so no one else can have you, or feed you, or change your diaper. But don’t worry, I’ll let go of you when the social worker gets here.”
But finally Louise was able to rip Chucky from Aunt Tiffany’s arms so yet another birthday could happen.
“Oh yay, yet another birthday.”
“Screw it, I just want cake.”
WHAT?! He didn’t even grow up and you threw him down to eat cake?
“I’m hungry, so sue me.”
WOULD SOMEONE GROW UP THOSE BABIES ALREADY!
“I just found Annabelle on the floor back there. It’s not our fault we had to wrestle these kids from their overly involved Aunt and Uncle. Man, I should be woohooing right now.”
Finally both kids were grown up and surprisingly survived. Lets talk Stats.
Chucky-4 Neat, 8 Outgoing, 4 Active, 7 playful, and 6 Nice. He’s nice, didn’t see that one coming.
Annabelle-4 Neat, 4 Outgoing, 9 Active, 7 Playful, and 1 nice. A mean little girl with ADHD. I see lots of moaning and groaning about fun, fun, fun, in her future.
Lacey and Larry are still alive too, in case anyone is wondering. I figured out their stats, They are both geniuses, medium active, friendly, cowardly, and medium finicky. And green. In case you couldn’t tell.
Larry will likely be our heir, as that is the only puppy the Uglacies roll wants to play with. Poor Lacey is completely neglected.
Now I’d like to say that Louise is a crappy, typical romance sim parent, but I would be lying. She actually rolls occasional wants for her children… *gasp* I know, right! Like teaching Annabelle to walk.
“Well the sooner she can walk, the sooner she can get her own food and make her way to the potty by herself!”
“Yawn, my work here is done.”
Sure, whatever you have to tell yourself, Louise. I see you snuggling with Chucky.
“Well Romance sims need their social, and since you’re not letting me screw half the town anymore, I need an occasional hug.”
“HEY, excuse me, but who is the real family sim here.”
Gads, I just realized he is dressed to match his car. Well with all this downloaded clothing, I am at least getting the well dressed handicap down easily. My sims get new wardrobes on a constant basis.
Speaking of handicaps, time to work on the Storytelling one. Louise writes her best selling Novel, “Memoirs of A Romance Sim.”
“Well it would have to be memoirs, since I don’t get any real action anymore.”
Louise you are sitting there with a baby bump, obviously you are getting some action.
And Bruce decides to study Anger Management…
“How to be zen when you are really pissed off.”
That’s good Bruce. Maybe you can stop hating on Shaun now.
“YAY, I got an A+! I am going to be the best scientist ever! Just you wait and see!”
“DADDY, look I got an A+ on my paper about the displacement of molecules and molecular travel!”
“WOW son, that is awesome, let’s go have a snowball fight!”
“INCOMING, dad!”
*SMACK*
“Owww, you little &^$#@”
“Heh, heh, just kidding son. I mean what an arm you have on you. My anger management class has really paid off. I should be furious with you right now, but kids will be kids. Aren’t you just precious.”
“Sorry dad, I added a few rocks to that snowball. Why don’t you toss it back and this time I can try broken glass instead.”
“Why you fricking little… grrr, precious little asshole you.”
“It was horrible. They just held us and held us, and we were starving and covered in our own poo. I mean what kind of Aunt and Uncle do that?!”
“Listen kid, Evil Jack knows shit. So you gotta be prepared, see. You need a weapon, shank their asses when they try to pick you up again.”
Chucky: “Is there anything sharp in here I can use for a weapon.”
Annabelle: “Not really, let me sharpen this block with my teeth.”
“Hey kids, look who came to visit, Uncle Shaun… Aaaah, who tripped me down the stairs, I’m faaaalllling. OH kids, look Uncle Shaun has had a bad accident. I wonder how that happened.”
“Aaaaahhhhh, Daddy you’re swinging me too hard!”
“Am I you little joy from the depths of hell?!”
“Larry, you are the cutest puppy ever! I can’t help rolling wants to interact with you.”
“Durr, Larry wants Scooby snacks.”
“Nobody loves me.”
Poor Lacey. Don’t you worry girl, we will get you the best home ever.
Trust me, being the favorite puppy isn’t all its cracked up to be.
“Arrgh, cough, cough, can’t breathe.”
Wendy, you are officially the best ghost ever!
“Well this shower is filthy!”
“Hello Seth. We at the Academy of Dance want to tell you we admire your commitment to mastering the art.”
“Er ok lady. Thanks for breaking into my house to tell me that.”
“Tell me this is it!”
Ok, ok fine. But I need an ugly kid, a really ugly kid. And zombie skins, I want one more zombie… fingers crossed… rabbit foot out, eating lucky charms…
“Screw you, here’s another normal kiddo.”
Fine, whatever, the house can’t take any more sims or puppies right now. This is it. Meet Tina, named for the Talking Tina doll on the Twilight Zone, a very creepy old episode. Let’s hope Tina gives us some scary genetics.
*sigh* I guess it’s not that bad, at least he has his shorts on and the lights are dim.
“See you next time my pretties.”
“You are so hot as a witch. I love a lady of magic.”
“OH Gage, you make me blush.”
OK ending this here. Quickly. Tune in next time, and until then, happy simming!
