My sister found my Sims game where I was married to my neighbor (her friend). My character was a biker with a leather jacket and an American flag bandana.

I had forgotten but now I must spend the next hour curled up in a ball, whimpering.

Too close for comfort.

Someone already answered, but also here's the full interaction rather than just America guy:

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's from YuGiOh abridged.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 points 2 months ago

Pretty sure this was the on-air version.

OP should text their sister, bring up this memory, and then ask for her friend's number.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Why would he need to ask his sister for his own wifes number?

If you get married in the game, you get married for real. Everyone knows that.

[–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 8 points 2 months ago

Lmao. Did your neighbour find out?

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 51 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Which avatar is the most detailed and accurate?

Mine - most likely to be left behind chained up in a basement.

Theirs - most likely to be left behind at a cocktail party.

The maid's - most likely to be left behind in a threesome.

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well yeah, presumably for any given threesome, the pov is going to be two behinds at some point, but it doesn't matter if you're the left behind or the right behind or long as everybody's enjoying themselves.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Contrary to what you might expect, the left behind tends to get a bit more direct attention than the right, roughly 30% more time, independent on total duration. This is because for right handed people, the left is more awkward to engage with on the side, so making the left behind the main behind with the right behind by their right hand feels more natural and comfortable.

Red flag. I don't wanna date people who take the Sims seriously.

Edit: if our Sims are slaves to some mangled abomination then it's a green flag.

[–] moody@lemmings.world 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What if our sims live in a swimming pool with no ladder?

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

That's a fucking mood right there.

(Also it depends on which Sims game and what the goal is. If they're doing it in the Sims 3 or Sims 4 and trying to drown our Sims, then I'll call them a scrub, tell them to gitgud and then block them. Unless there's also a wall around the pool. Otherwise, 10/10)

Edit: running a cult in the Sims is also a green flag.

[–] lurklurk@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like you're taking the Sims pretty seriously ;)

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 7 points 2 months ago

Duh. I'm trying to collect as many red flags as possible. They're very pretty. uwu

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

Definitely cute.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Depends, was this all her game, or did she find my existing game and insert herself into it?

[–] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Which is the good one out of those?

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm just happy she can use a computer to that degree.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

She's hacked your home security system, and replaced your alarm with "never gonna give you up.mp3"

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, I only date women who would prefer to wear the French maid outfit themselves.

[–] corvi@lemm.ee 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Like....as a fetish, or do you want to date your maid so you don't have to pay?

[–] figjam@midwest.social 1 points 2 months ago

It can be both right?

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

My partner did this to see how our children would look. Thankfully the generated spawn were wildly inaccurate.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hopefully the language they speak is more intelligible too.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah they're pretty well spoken. Although they often use sentences that are part English and part Norwegian. So it can sound weird if you're not used to it.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 15 points 2 months ago

I don’t want kids, but I would take her interest in me as a compliment.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 months ago

Closet door suddenly opens and a full sized silicon sex doll resembling themselves falls out ... voice activation turns on as the doll lies face down on the floor ... "That's it baby, let's make more babies, that's the stuff" .... sex doll vibrates vigorously on the floor

[–] Zero22xx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Both flags at the same time.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

So what would that be, a brown flag?

[–] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 11 points 2 months ago

Gawd that reminds me I used to base my Sims off the names on the back of cd cases.

I'm sorry eazy e that I had your widow in a house full of bone thugs, I didn't know who she was

[–] bss03@infosec.pub 8 points 2 months ago

I vote red flag, since it's sound like something I would do. (Definitely something I did in secondary school.)

If you’re red/green colorblind:

  • it doesn’t matter
  • it’s hard to quickly tell the overall mood of your sims
[–] therealjcdenton@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 months ago

The one for me
