  1. A new Star Trek prequel

    You mean Star Trek: Enterprise isn't the original???
  2. Santas Ho Ho Ho to be Banned

    Say whatever in the world you want, just as long I get my day off!!!
  3. Its Christmas Time - What are you getting

    It sounds like you know your parents very well! I want... more paperwork!
  4. A new sex offender on the streets of the UK

    Sounds like they're plain being hostel!
  5. Apathy

    I'm too busy bureaucrating w/ my midlevel job in the Real Life Bureau of Bureaucracies to notice, much less care, who my boss is.
  6. Steven Colbert for President of the United States of America

    ^^ Sounds like fun to me! I remember a guy named Pat Paulsen from The Smother Brothers Comedy Hour who perpetually ran for president in the '60's & '70's. Chaos or not it would be cool to see the potential impact a legitimate satirist would have. But I'm still waiting for someone to run as a member of the Party Party!
  7. EA Killing Competition

    Yeah, but I bet they won't make a dent into Microsoft's Solitaire and Hearts monopolies!
  8. An Annual State of the Site Speech?

    Wow, is this your way of saying that Dirk and the staff need to be more visible??
  9. Simtropolis: A Tired Brand

    Originally posted by: SimRabbit whats sim reaper, i feel weird, i don't understand the joke.quote> SR (and others): The Reaper is a whimsical character that appears in The Sims II (and maybe the original) when a Sim or Sim pet dies. The idea of a Sim Reaper showing up whenever someone announces they are leaving either Simtropolis, one of the other fansites, or quitting Sim City as a whole rather cracks me up!
  10. Simtropolis: A Tired Brand

    Yes! The Sim Reaper! (Or at least that's what it should be called! ) I also it also gives back the sports equipment to those who want to leave the game and go home! (You actually can take it with you here!)
  11. Simtropolis: A Tired Brand

    I have an idea: how about a new "Show us your... 'Simtropolis Is Dying/Declining' " thread!
  12. Simtropolis: A Tired Brand

    Granted there are lots of other computer games and fansites out in the sea as it were, but if Simtropolis was truly getting all that tired (yet again... ), then I doubt that Dirk would be courted by the next generation of city sim gamemakers as he is now.
  13. The Simtropolis Sky Thread

    Cool! Another "Show us your..." thread! (And a potentially blue/violet/red one at that!) I thought they had passe this year!
  14. Inflationary Language

    In for a Franklin, in for a ton (or the British equivalent)?
  15. Who here hates Pennies?

    Some of the prettier women I've dated were named Penny. And they were full of sense too!
  16. A simple question

    Originally posted by: Mikemat5150 You people have very little sense of humor. Excpet for you s.i.X.quote> Ah, so this was meant as a joke! I was really trying to avoid the subject of what our interns and other B'o'B 'ers looked like! (other than us empty suits that is, beef goes right through us! )
  17. A simple question

    At the Real Life Bureau of Bureaucracies we have interns that can't grow a beard to save their lives! And they sometimes tend to bite too!
  18. Member of the Month August 2007 Ceremonies

    Congratulations!
  19. Demographics of Simtrop

    I'm an empty suit!
  20. New SimCity Societies trailer on IGN

    I just saw the trailer and the interview. The Trailer: -The woman's voice was a okay, but for a good trailer it needed the movie announcer guy, Don LaFontaine..."In a world where..." Yeah!! I also spotted a scene that slightly reminded me of Blade Runner, but it needed much higher skyscrapers! The interview: I know they say no zoning, but in a weird way it looks like housing/businesses/venues has replaced residential/industry/ commercial. I didn't see evidence of class conflict like City Life, but the 3-D graphics looked similar. Ms. Bernstein's presentation kind of suggested that the game could be open ended like the Sim City and Sims games.
  21. Simtropolis 5th aniversary Plans

    As we say in the Real Life Bureau of Bureaucacies "Time flies whether you're having fun or not! (Unless you're processing paperwork that is!)"
  22. Doom9 Rules/ST Rules

    Or maybe the Empty Suit Brigade! So is Doom9 as cool of a site as this one?
  23. Obituary of the late Mr Common Sense

    "And now you know... the.. reeeeest of the story!" Well it kind of looks like something Paul Harvey would read.
  24. World Changers

    Wow, I've been trying forever to get a ramp like that made in my Sims homes!
  25. Dirk Day (System Administrator Appreciation Day)

    Well what will they think of next? Thank you for this fun website Dirk!
