Socially Awkward
    

Yes, there's always something which doesn't fit in... Let's see who, or what, is socially awkward here in the suburbs surrounding the capital today...

Looks like a pleasant suburban apartment here... but, here's the sad truth: NO ONE in this building plays SimCity!! AWKWARD!!!!

These upscale condos look ok on the outside...

...but the truth is most of the residents here have not downloaded their dependencies! AWKWARD!!!

A quiet leafy suburb... but, the ugly truth shall be revealed! The police and fire and ambulance will not come here at all... no matter what. Why? It is just outside the service area circles  each draws around their stations. House on fire with crooks inside? No help for you!!!

You wanna talk socially awkward? No one wants to go over to JD's house... he has the PROP POX!!!!

If you want to cross this street, blue jays will swoop down and peck you on the head. Out shopping? Bring a hat... or, a helmet.

How's this for awkward? In all of the offices with slanty walls, the occupants all walk diagonally to compensate...

I can't tell you how many fights have broken out right here... they always start the same way:
"Where do you wanna eat?"
"I don't know. What do you want?"
"What are you in the mood for?"
 "I don't know. Anything."
"How about that one?"
"No, I don't like that one."
"Just pick..."
"You pick..."
And then it's go time!

That awkward moment when the office party fires up the karaoke machine...

How about the awkward moment when you get to the gas station and realize the gas tank hatch is on the other side? And then you drive back around and it's STILL on the other side??!!

And finally (thankfully), how about that awkward moment when you work at Arby's but don't pay attention to where you are walking and end up next door working at Sonic? Oops!

thank you  I enjoyed seeing these old BATs in use and still like them better than the cartoonish buildings of newer city games

That slanted roof buildinh is cool- the one you say has slanted walls. Where's you get that?

Haha that's one of the original Maxis landmarks that comes with the game.  Your plugins folder must be too big my friend, if you don't recognize it.  :no:
