1. Hello, and welcome to 100 Days of Awesome, starring the made-of-
Awesome Tsvirkunov family. They are currently running at nine
objectives accomplished for nine days of trying, and if some of that
involves the community lot rule, well, that’s perfectly legal.
The 100 Days Challenge was created by Callista over at the old
Boolprop, and the only change I’ve made is to decide that it’s okay
for Sims to go to work or school.
4. PONG: Hey, looking sharp!
ANASTASIA: Pong, you have to move or I can’t get to the rack.
REBECCA: Mom, I love the new look! You should wear those all
the time.
5. REBECCA: The built-in light would be handy at nighttime, but it’s
really hard to read in these.
ANASTASIA: Flabnabbit! How do you stop these things falling
off your nose?
PONG: Try tilting your head back, like this.
6. DESCARTES: What? I’m not having any problems.
ANASTASIA: Well, we aren’t all as awesome as you, Dad.
DESCARTES: You should be. Don’t you have half my genetic
material?
ABBEY: And half mine. Are you saying it’s my fault?
DESCARTES: Would I say a thing like that?
ABBEY: You might imply it.
DESCARTES: You mean you might infer it. All I said was that my
half of their genetic material is pure Awesome.
ABBEY: (blows a raspberry at Descartes)
7. DESCARTES: We weren’t sure who was supposed to do the
wearing, so we all did. Except for the kids. They’re too little,
apparently.
8. REBECCA (V.O.): Our community lot task for the day was to
Adopt a Pet, so I went down to the animal shelter and picked out a
dog.
9. REBECCA (V.O.): I like dogs. Although Percy is kind of a doofus,
aren’tcha, Percy?
10. REBECCA (V.O.): I mean, how many dogs spend time looking at
themselves in the mirror?* Dalmatians tend to have hip problems
when they get older if you don’t let them run, so I hope someone’s
up for jogging a lot…
PONG (V.O.): I call “not it.”
*Note from esmeiolanthe: This interaction is called “Sniff Pet” and is actually fairly accurate.
If you put paint on a dog’s nose and sit them in front of a mirror, they will attempt to paw the
paint on the nose of the dog in the mirror.
11. ALLYN (V.O): We have a dog! A real dog! Percy’s super smart.
13. ABBEY: Our task today is to sell a masterpiece. I had a painting
near ready to go, so I’ll just finish that off, I guess.
14. ABBEY (V.O.): I don’t remember, though… How much qualifies
as a masterpiece?
PONG: (V.O.): What do you mean, “How much”? How much
paint? I thought a masterpiece was judged on its artistic merits.
ABBEY (V.O.): It is, but its artistic merits are determined by how
much money you get when you sell it.
PONG (V.O.): Well, that seems kind of backward. By that
measure, a velvet Elvis painting would be the pinnacle of art,
wouldn’t it?
15. ANASTASIA (V.O.): Nah, those don’t retail for more than about
$450, $475 tops. I think you have to hit at least $500 to have any
artistic value.
16. ABBEY: What’s the phrase? “money for nothing”? I’ve been
painting like that since I was nineteen.
17. REBECCA (V.O.): We were supposed to get points for a
community lot task, too, but somebody wouldn’t cooperate.
PONG: No! I did not sign up for this! If you want someone to do it,
why not your parents? Or your sister?
REBECCA: Anastasia isn’t in a committed relationship and you
know it. And Mom and Dad probably don’t have very long left.
You’re just being selfish.
18. PONG: You know what? You’re right. I agreed to marry you
because I love you and I want to be with you forever, and I don’t
want to do anything as [bleep]-up as break up with you in public
because some random [bleep] we’ve never even seen thinks it
would generate good ratings! I won’t do it. And if we ever get
anything like that again, you can get your sister to do that [bleep],
because I am through with destroying our marriage, do you hear
me? Through!
19. ALLYN (V.O.): Georgiana grew up today. She didn’t want to,
even though she had a clean diaper and everything. New Mom
couldn’t figure out what was wrong.
20. ALLYN (V.O.): Eventually, Uncle Pong brought her to the cake,
and everything was okay again. Cakes are pretty magical like that.
21. ALLYN (V.O.): And I heard that everyone else is getting to stay
up to look for aliens, but I have to go to bed. It’s not fair!
ALLYN (V.O.): Er, you won’t tell New Mom I was up this late,
will you?
22. ABBEY (V.O.): Tonight we have to get someone abducted. They
said pregnancy was optional, which is a huge relief, because only
one of us would be able to manage that.
DESCARTES (V.O.): We all got in on the act, because abductions
are not all that common.
ABBEY (V.O.): About one time in every two hundred times
someone stargazes with the expensive telescope.
23. DESCARTES (V.O.): So we were stopping and starting the whole
stargazing thing. It’s supposed to help, apparently.
ABBEY (V.O.): It does help! Every authoritative source I’ve found
states that abduction happens very quickly after you start
stargazing, so logically if it’s been fifteen minutes, you should stop
and try again. Eventually the odds have to come through.
DESCARTES (V.O.): They didn’t this time, though.
ABBEY (V.O.): No, but there’s still plenty of time between seven
p.m. and midnight.
24. ABBEY (V.O.): That didn’t really leave us with much to do during
the day, although I did teach Georgiana to talk.
25. ANASTASIA (V.O.): Mom did call for a community lot task, but it
was “First Kiss.” Nobody in the house was eligible.
ALLYN: I could do it, New Mom!
ANASTASIA: You’re ten.
ALLYN: Yeah, but Uncle Pong could get another magic cake, and
I could grow up to be a Teen, and then I could get a matchmaker
date, and he could kiss me!
26. ANASTASIA: No, you’re ten. Wait until you’re older to start
kissing boys.
ALLYN: But I could be older…!
ANASTASIA: And I’m not going to let you wish your life away.
Age normally, okay?
ALLYN: Awwww, you never let me do anything!
27. ABBEY (V.O): Since there’s not much for you to film today,
maybe I should take you on a tour of the new floor. Would you like
that?
28. AABEY (V.O.): We just couldn’t fit everyone into the two floors
anymore, not with three girls, plus two married couples and a
grown-up who really should have some privacy every now and
then.
29. ABBEY: This space is for the kids to play and do their homework.
Allyn has a bedroom up here, too, and there’s a third full bath, but
you have a policy of not showing the bath or bedrooms, right?
30. PONG (V.O.): Okay, one shot. But only because she’s aged up
again.
ALLYN (V.O.): Winifred is finally big enough to play with!
32. DESCARTES (V.O.): What’s it going to be like when I die?
Awesome, of course. I’ll probably get hula zombies and a free
drink. Rum, naturally. Can’t let the Ancient Order of Space Pirates
down.
33. ABBEY: There isn’t an Ancient Order of Space Pirates.
DESCARTES: Well, if there isn’t, there should be.
ABBEY: Can’t argue with that. But don’t you need something
special to get hula zombies?
DESCARTES: Yep. You need to be super happy. But I’ve been
that since college.
34. ABBEY: Have you really?
DESCARTES: Duh. That’s when I met you.
ABBEY: Well, yes it is, but --
DESCARTES: And that’s all it took. I bet you didn’t even notice
how much I kept staring at you all through our first study session.
ABBEY: You were? Really?
DESCARTES: Yes.
ABBEY: But you didn’t seem upset when I was head over heels for
your cousin.
DESCARTES: Why would I? The man wore mascara to bring out
his stubble.
35. ABBEY: Do you know, I think you’re right?
DESCARTES: I know I’m right. I walked in on him applying it
one day. Besides, even if he didn’t wear mascara, I knew the
minute I saw you that you were the one for me. No, the second.
ABBEY: Love doesn’t work like that.
DESCARTES: Have we or have we not been happy for almost fifty
years?
ABBEY: We have…
DESCARTES: Then I rest my case. QED.
