Get phunkeh thread!! woo baby!!

*hugs aretoo* Bai!

EDIT: @Tae What do you do?  

[Taeryyn]

I work in a call centre on an inbound campaign. I do presales and licensing and technical routing. I don't mind the TR, but presales sucks. I used to do consumer customer service (dealing with home users), for the same company, and that was even worse. xp  

[penned ignorance]

Huh, I guess I can see that being an annoying job. I work in a deli at a grocery store... I slice meat and cheese. razz It's not so bad but for the fact that I come home smelling like meat at the end of the day. And customers are no fun... razz  

[Taeryyn]

Yeah. I get very, very sick of people screaming at me about stupid s**t that has nothing to do with me or even the company I work for.  

[penned ignorance]

I bet. =/ I try to be nice to call centre people unless they're really annoying.  

[Taeryyn]

Well, that's a good thing. Most people seem to have absolutely no problem being nasty, rude, and mean to me and my coworkers just because they aren't face-to-face with us. I've had quite a few different jobs, and working with the general public in any capacity can be frustrating. But before I started working at the call centre, I never would have guessed at the sheer number of people who are so wilfully ignorant and mean. :/

Anyway. Enough about that. xp I got to play the Sims 3 today, and I wish I had a computer that would run it. xD

Because falling's not the problem
When I'm falling I'm in peace

Hey Penny and Tae~
biggrin

It's only when I hit the ground
It causes all the grief

 

[Taeryyn]

Hey Yunie. :3  

[YunieCookie]

Because falling's not the problem
When I'm falling I'm in peace

How goes?
:3

It's only when I hit the ground
It causes all the grief

Hello Yunie. smile

SIMS 3?! I love that game so much.  

[Taeryyn]

Goes ok. Just nomming tostitos and contemplating going to bed, since I have to be up early. How about you?

Edit:
Penny: I was a HUGE fan of the Sims and the Sims 2, but my pitiful laptop can't run the latter. MIGHT be able to run the Sims, but I lost the disks.

I love the customization in the third one. <3  

[penned ignorance]

Me too. Another of my favourite things is the ability to have gay couples. biggrin I have so much fun just creating the characters.  

[Taeryyn]

That really surprised me the first time I played it. I don't remember if it was possible in the Sims 1 (although I am pretty sure it was), but it definitely was in the Sims 2. I'm not sure why I was surprised, but it was great. :3

My stepfather really likes the game. He isn't much of a computer user or gamer, but he recreates families from sitcoms or movies, and builds crazy detailed houses.  

[penned ignorance]

Oh was it? I've never played Sims 2. Either way, it's still pretty awesome. smile

Haha that's cool. xd I recreate my friends. That's fun.  

[Taeryyn]

Yeah. x3 The Sims 1 was basic in terms of customization, but they had a lot of crazy expansions. Like Makin' Magic. Making spells to turn your neighbour into a toad? Epic.

The best part of both 1 and 2 was the custom content available online from Sims fans. A lot of it was much, much nicer than the content available from EA. Just...amazing stuff. I assume it's the same for 3, I just haven't explored, yet. x3
