Why "The Sims" Is Actually the Weirdest Game Ever

Although The Sims was the best game to ever enter my childhood, looking back, it was so damn weird.

Why "The Sims" Is Actually the Weirdest Game Ever

1. You can walk on water.

2. The babies look like this.

3. And this (wtf).

4. Animal abuse is normal.

Excuse me, you're suffocating your puppy.

5. There is an "IDGAF" parenting technique.

Nope, not a single care in the world.


Whoops.

6. The pets look like this. 

Nope, not what I was going for.

7. There is no concern for safety.

Just a bus full of drowning children.


Oh, my house is on fire? That's OK, I'm having too much fun on this trampoline.

8. A robber can steal your toilet, couch and bed all at once and fit it into one single bag.

9. Their flexibility is bizarre.

Is that comfortable ma'am?


Excuse me, I think your child's arm is broken.

10. Sometimes the cars just don't appear.

11. There is no concept of eating in moderation.

Want a sandwich?  Want two sandwiches? Have the whole plate! And apparently gravity isn't a thing either.

12. Relationship guidelines do not exist.

You can meet someone in the morning, get married in the afternoon and have a kid that night! Who cares!

13. They are always so moody.

Come on Janet, wash your damn hands.

14. Your Sims randomly morph into their beds.

15. And sometimes during showers they … magically transform into centaurs???

WTF, Sims?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
