Title: More Awful than You! August: Craptacular Stories.
Post by: rohina on 2008 August 01, 17:22:28
We haven't had a good P&L at bad writing since July of last year, so there must be some fabulous new crap out there. Bonus points if you manage to spork a Urinator, or a story from a source other than the exchange. It's totally easy to find stories with bad spelling and grammar, but let's go the extra mile and find something more that really takes the story into the realm of the appalling.

Hm. I like the sound of this one. I'm not sure what format you want this in though (like some sample pictures or just a link)?

http://thesims2.ea.com/exchange/story_detail.php?asset_id=233988&asset_type=story&search=1&key=&hideFramework=&languageCode=

Here's a pretty bad one on the Exchange, that's around 5 pictures long (makes for some quick reading in a rush)! It's about a woman who has been abused for years by her husband to the point where she looks half dead (and yet no one notices... Hmm...) then suddenly he turns around, proclaims his undying love and begs for forgiveness. Naturally, she pretends the whole thing never happened and they live happily ever after. As you do. Craptacular pictures, including animation glitches, ahoy!

There were stories in those?  Where?  All I saw was a series of captioned pictures.  And atrocious mangling of the English language in the third one.  If it hadn't been for the information on the "story detail" page, I might not have realised it was in English.

They're saying that it was based on The Sims Zone SimBrother.  That was very obvious just from looking at the housemates - 5 of these are the same housemates that were in series 4 of the SimBrother series (http://simbrother.thesimszone.co.uk/index.php?Series=4).  (John Cleese won that series of SimBrother.)  There's no shortage of celebrity sims, so why did they have to choose the same celebrities as had already been done (and done far, far better) by The Sims Zone.

Oh no Kyna, this story is fascinating. We got to watch a bunch of 'celebrity' sims eat, interact and sleep. What a cliffhanger! Thankfully, day 2 will also be 'settling down' so I'll be able to get more of what I crave. Scintillating commentary just adds to the allure of this piece.

Here is my entry. I give it an "A" for NOT mangling the English language (from what I can see, everything has correct punctuation and spelling) and because the screen shots are fairly nice. However, it gets an "F" for phailing miserably at actually holding my attention... the story also seems to bounce, because I got really confused as to what her boyfriend's name actually was...

From the Urinal, we have The Dork Legacy 5.1. (http://katu-sims.livejournal.com/24908.html#cutid1) It has Moar chapters but this was the first one I clicked.

Here are just a few of my favorite parts. I wanted to add more quotes, but that would've made this post 2 and a half pages long. Anyway, here goes nothing.

Quote
Oh hey, Judah! Remember me, the stinky girl from the store? You wanna maybe hang out tonight?
Judah: You're soft to hug!
Q: I know I just invited you to visit, but how about you move in?
Judah: Can I go get my stuff?
Q: No. You can never leave this house again.

Judah: You know...I'm only engaged to your daughter. We're not married yet. So maybe we could...
Margaret: OH HELL NO, DON'T TOUCH ME!
Judah: But you were the one who came to bed with me...

Can you tell I've been cheated on before, lol?
Q: Hey sweetie <3 I'm home from work.
Judah: Which one are you? Oh, Q! Hi dear.

Judah: Dude, marrying into a legacy rocks. You're dirt poor, single, hanging out at the local dives looking for someone - anyone! And then, in exchange for a little bit of craziness, you get to live in a mansion, go on all-expenses-paid vacations, never have to work if you don't want to...and if you play your cards right, sleep with everyone in the house! :D
Me: ...Aren't you a family sim?

Q's pretty bad at pregnancy.
Judah: I feel as though this is somehow my fault...*worryworry*

Judah: [Wedding cake] is the entire reason I wanted to get married.

I don't usually read Sim stories, but I sometimes stop by Sexy Sims 2, just to see if I can find some tacky sex stories. Usually, I am not disappointed.

Here's a sample: Cumming together: In the begging (http://www.sexysims2.com/article.php?t=171601)

Basically, it is a story about Cyd Roseland screwing numerous people, including his own son. How wonderful.

Notable pictures:

...why is there a baby object in the background? (http://pixcastle.com/pic/14460gLjBi/297644.jpg).
NWS: I don't know why, but I am very amused by the face the fireman is giving. (http://pixcastle.com/pic/14460gLjBi/298338.jpg)
NWS: ...the hell. (http://www.pixcastle.com/pic/14460gLjBi/303278.jpg)
NWS: Those breasts! Ugh! (http://pixcastle.com/pic/14460gLjBi/303315.jpg)

Quotes:

Quote
Suddenly...i whisper in her ear as she ever had a one night stand?

She quickly responds back "No...I think those are disgusting...however tonight might be a first..."

Hearing Marissa say that I quickly tore off my clothes and she looked at me with a disgusting but surprising look.

Marissa: "Oh my...do you expect that to go inside of me..."
Marissa quickly ran down the stairs and left Cyd in total confussion.

Quote
Cyd: Yea...whoa...(little did Hillary know that was the first time Cyd had ever seen any breast in person before)

Quote
Hillary: Cyd...my pussy is throbbing, my nipples are hard...and I cant get your dick our of my head. Cyd...I know this may be hard to believe...but I want you to be my first...take my VIRGINITY!!!

Quote
Cyd: "Did you just have a girl in her son?"

DJ: "No dad...um...I was just watching a gangbang flick...

Cyd: "Well son...your dick says otherwise."

Quote
Cyd: "Hey son...want a banna"

DJ: "Naw...I'm about to go to....

Before DJ could finish the sentence Cyd had stuck 9 inch dick in DJ's mouth and came inside his mouth in less than a minute.

Quote
We laid on the bed and talked some more until...I saw the bulge in Cyd's pants and my pussy instantly started leaking like a water hose.

They all die by fire, which is very deserving. Now doesn't that turn you on?

Cyd rushed back up to his room and looked as his slightly bleeding penis. Cyd didn't realize that he had shaven earlier in the day and forgot that he had cut himself rather badly...leaving horrible looking scar and blood all over his penis.

Semi-agreement.  I'm not clicking any sexysims links.  Reading that stuff is not my cup of tea, even when it's well-written.  I'm certainly not going to go read it when it's craptacular.

It's probably a good idea if people don't post NSFW images in the thread.  Linking to the images with a NSFW warning, such as Diala did, is better.

Zombie attack (http://www.thesimsresource.com/storytelling/view.php?id=10878)

Warning: no one actually gets attacked, some of the pics don't have captions, and it's pretty much a non-story. It's short, though.

Not too into details, are we? (http://www.thesimsresource.com/storytelling/view.php?id=11110)

I am more amused by the fact he had to shave it. Normally, that limb should not be hairy, all the growth happens in its surroundings...unless our hero is someone like this (http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00165/F_200612_december09_165732a.jpg).

Actually, a too tight of circumcision as an infant can cause this. If too little skin is left to account for "growth," when the penis gets hard it can pull some (hairy) skin up from the scrotum. One of those negatives of circumcision that's not talked about.

I shall attempt to fulfill my duites, as I've been eager in the past to be found worth of judging the most awful. However, my real life is about to get even more chaotic than normal. I'm moving to California in 10 days with 3 of my 5 children (from rural Nebraska no less) to attend law school at ***  :o. For realz. So whether I'm still sane at the end of the month to perform my duties is up in the air.

Hmmm.  I don't know that this claims to be a "story," though.  It's a legacy update, which sometimes means just that;  an update on what's going on in somebody's challenge.  A lot of people don't make stories out of their legacies. 

I half-heartedly trolled for stories, and then I quit.  I just don't think I have the heart to spork anybody for their sims stories, which is weird, because I have no problem at all sporking the hell out of bad fanfic on GAFF.  And the charm has gone out of that after JKR published the last Harry Potter book and the Harmony/Pumpkin Pie wankfest died down and there just isn't as much of Draco having Harry's assbabies anymore.  Sigh.

I glanced over the Cyd Roseland story, but the pictures all seem to have been deleted.  Hmmm---wonder why?

I don't agree with you there. LiveJournal is for journal entries, not necessarily stories.  I never put stories up on LiveJournal:  I use it for outtakes, toddler spam, wedding pictures of spares: a lot of writers use it as a sort of "extra features" on a DVD.  It's also good for bitching about stuff you wish your sims hadn't done.  I don't really like LiveJournal stories much at all.

I DO agree with you there.  You definitely have set yourself up if you complain that you don't get comments.  Bonus points:  threats to stop writing.  (Groucho: How much if you don't rehearse?

I agree that 95% of legacy stories are not really intended to be stories. They are glorified picture commentaries. That's what my LJ is as well, but this does not exclude you from the basic tenants of grammar and any sense of decency. Nothing...absolutely nothing excuses you from using walls down.

My general nomination would be anyone who does an heir poll. We don't fucking care.

Serious nominations:
  • SimCity's Supermodel Season 2 (http://epilepticoyster.livejournal.com/3039.html), for running a pixellated supermodel contest. TWICE. It makes me want to cry for humanity. Also for copious use of centered texts in paragraph format. The two do not mix.
  • Holy Moly, It's the Spicolis! (http://simmiesworld.livejournal.com/72922.html#cutid1) I know Rohina especially loves this one.  ::)  Nominated for unfunny poking of a fake mentally retarded person. I believe Episode 16 was crueler than Episode 17. Also, walls down.

Found the diary of Emily at TSR.  http://forums.thesimsresource.com/showthread.php?t=328277

Mercifully brief, and mercifully unfinished (even though it's been over a year since the last instalment).

The story has all that we have come to expect from a craptacular story: spelling mistakes, poor capitalisation (please use I, not i), evil foster home (foster home experience covered in a bare two sentences), misspelling of one of the main character's names in much of the story (Vincund), and incredible plot holes - including an actual hole that the heroine falls into when she's 13, finds she can't get out of, yet she somehow survives until she is 25 when the Curious brothers stumble across her and rescue her.  We are never told how she survived for 12 years in a hole that she couldn't climb out of.

For bonus points, it also probably has game borkage - the sim was born in Pleasantview, yet moved to Strangetown twice - once with her parents when she was 7 and again (apparently) when she ran away from the foster home at 13.  It looks like the writer forgot that she'd moved her heroine to ST in the previous paragraph.

I'm not nominating this based on the story.  I'm nominating this based on the in-thread discussion about how the writer (I use the term loosely) and her sister (who apparently also posts Curious brother stories at TSR) are both great writers because their dad is a writer.
There was this gem from the a random poster:
Quote
Ah Good Story! Seems Like Good-Writing Runs In The Family
The "writer" replied with this:
Quote
Well our dad is a writer.
Another random poster says:
Quote
That's so cool! So now we know were you both get it from!

Other highlights
- the writer mistakenly posted the story on her sister's forum account, leading someone to think that the sister was now posting three concurrent Curious brothers stories
- she loses track of what instalment she's up to.  The fourth and final instalment is headed: "Dairy Entry no." with no number.  Looks like she intended to go back and count all of the instalments, but I guess she couldn't count that high.
- stories at TSR are supposed to include pictures.  Four instalments of the story, but only two pics.  Neither of these feature the central character in the story.  One was of Pascal's alien baby in the crib, the other was of Lazlo holding the baby.
- From instalment three: ' "HEY!!!!" Lazlo shouted with joy. "WHY DON'T YOU LIVE IN THE OLD ABANDONED HOUSE DOWN THE
STREET!!??" '  In the next instalment we find out the "old abandoned" house is 2 months old.

Hoping that since I have submitted an entry, I am ineligible to judge this month's competition.

Apparently the "ditch" she falls into has an entire alien spaceship within it. She apparently has to wait 12 years before she can decide to climb on top of it and jump out of the "ditch".

Apparently the father struggled to pay all the bills until one for §1,000,000 arrived and simply had to give her away. As Stangel pointed out, she went to fist all her friends in the morning before ending up in Strangetown by lunch time. She obviously forgot that she moved when she was seven.

I really hate to think what the father's stories/scripts are like...

Oh, D'OH!  I'm sorry, Rohina, I didn't realize you wanted to nominate my *stories.*  I thought you meant nominate me as a *judge*!  Now that truly would have sucked, because I'm in the down season and I finally get to read good stuff instead of reading all the lousy papers I usually do. 

But my stories?  That's different. I didn't know you'd so much as looked at them.  The early chapters are indeed pretty crappy and some would say the whole thing was hideously bad.  I don't think it would win, but . . . but. . . it's an honor even to be mentioned. . . *sniffle*. . . it really is.  Maybe you'd nominate them anyway and I could get a special award for Miss Congeniality or Most Tedious or Most Sexist Crap.  Pleeeze?

Nothing...absolutely nothing excuses you from using walls down.
Not true. Sometimes wallsdown is required because walls-up would block the only camera angle that lets you get a good picture.

My general nomination would be anyone who does an heir poll. We don't fucking care.
Well, obviously, the poll is intended for the regular readership, not for you. :P

Holy Moly, It's the Spicolis! (http://simmiesworld.livejournal.com/72922.html#cutid1) I know Rohina especially loves this one.  ::)  Nominated for unfunny poking of a fake mentally retarded person. I believe Episode 16 was crueler than Episode 17. Also, walls down.

I use Gunmod's camera hack, version A. I also play houses almost everyone describes as "tiny" and "how in the world could you actually fit furniture in that thing?" I almost never find that I can't take a picture I want with everything left as it should be and with walls up. Family photos are probably the only exception.

That isn't a perfect solution, because deleting the wall can have a whole cascade of other side effects, plus you will substitute visible terraingrid instead of visible other-rooms.

Terraingrid isn't a problem; just click on the recolor tool and the grid vanishes.  That said, however, I can't say that I care if walls are down or not just so long as the view behind the characters isn't too distracting.

this one isn't as bad as most of the stories but I think it qualifies as craptacular. Basically it's the story of a twelve-year-old girl who has been living all by herself for two years since her mother left. Then  one of her friends some guy called Mike shows up and this is were things get creepy. First of Mike is an adult and responsible adults wouldn't actually leave the kid there living all by herself, and lets face it stories about little girls whose only friends are older men are just creepy ok. Why can't she have a friend her own age? In the end she runs away and the author never updated again thank god.

Some quotes
Quote
If I told you I have been living alone for 2 years, would you believe me? Hello, my name is Sheme Shrum. I am 12 years old and, yes, it is true, I haven't lived with anyone since I was 10 years old.

Quote
But, the most important thing that I do everyday, is wait for my mom to come home. She hasn't come home in almost two years.
 

Quote
Mike was one of my only friends. Sometimes, I believe he may be my long, lost father, and he just doesn't realize it, yet. Mike knows all about mom's absense.

I luled at that too. It's no wonder the author just lost interest in the story, it's really not that interesting at all.

Also, how many 12's care about how much junk food they eat? Whatshername wouldn't be the one getting in trouble for living alone for two years, her mom would. The guy might get in trouble too, since he knew about the abandonment of a minor and didn't do anything about it.

I decided to check out some of the story offerings on Live Journal and, within minutes, discovered The Housekeepers Chronicle (http://simtales04.livejournal.com/19928.html).  What it lacks in gruesomely detailed sex scenes and incest it makes up for in hilariously cliched characterization and plot*, incompetent photography** and the blandest narrator to ever be caught up in a completely unrealistic 12-penned soap opera***.  The whole thing is more More Mediocre than You. than More Awful than You!, but since she made the effort to post it to the internet, I thought I'd make the effort to openly mock it. 

* The Pretty Perfect Template 1 Narrator loves her sweet, eccentric, artisy employer and hates his bitchy, undermining wife who can't even appreciate her husband's beautiful soul. She's just so mean!  ::) I love the smell of casual sexism in the morning.

No idea. Everyone knows the surest way to get a kid to do something is to tell them not to. That's why you then do something like electrifying the chest so when they try, it zaps them, and you point and laugh at them. It's hilarious!

Maybe the wife is always crying because she's married to a philanderer.  And the "nice" housekeeper ALMOST feels sorry for her a couple of times, while making the wife cry some more by sleeping with the husband.

So, they have a plane crash. Zack stumbles across a house where some woman tells him he can stay; and the lazy sod just sits on the couch without looking for his mates? Plus, the woman goes off somewhere and he doesn't contact emergency services? That's not a plot hole, that's a rift on the event horizon.

Then the last two blithely leap on a plane at the end without the slightest qualm. Wonderful. I think the 12 in the name was a dead giveaway, but I would expect a 12 year old to spell better than that.

There's a season 2 as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUWY4oadV1E&feature=related I can't find the second episode though. It's every bit as bad as the first season!

Yuck. Seson 2 is even worse than Seson 1 (not surprising though). My favourite bit is how the plane crashes because it runs out of fuel in midair... :o

But as for that coloured text... My eyes!!  :-X And it's offensive to Wiccans, let alone my eyes.

Generally, when they are that young/stupid, I see them as kind of generic, sexless AOLbeast.

If it really reeks of maudlin melodrama, then I feel like it might be female. But the senseless plotting and giant pools of blood felt more male to me.

Due to the sex ratio in the sims community, I just assume female until stated otherwise.

I think the amount of women and homosexuals in the Sims community is related to the design aspects of the game.</sterotyping>

I found this urinal, though I have no idea what is called Sim Winchesters.

Episode 1: (http://community.livejournal.com/sim_winchesters/393.html) Introduction, nothing to see here, move on.
Episode 2: (http://community.livejournal.com/sim_winchesters/652.html) We are introduced to their band, then "in the middle of one of our practice sets" some guy, John, calls Dean and tells him the story of Jason and Jodie Larson (lol premades) and how close they were when Jodie got sick and eventually died and with the help of a gypsy, Jason brings her back as a zombie.
Episode 2.5: (http://community.livejournal.com/sim_winchesters/939.html) Something actually happens! After a 2-pic recap and another story about why Dean doesn't like to drive, they go to the mall, have a bit of fun, and bump into Jason, and persuade him to come over for dinner the next night. We find out the whole point of this is "to decipher whether or not Jason had zombifyed his sister." They go to the Larson house and discover Zombie Jodie in a shed. Everyone has dinner. Really, why the fuck did Jason put Jodie in that shed?
Episode 3: (http://community.livejournal.com/sim_winchesters/1375.html) A gem. Intimacy, with a big, obnoxious, rude, in-your-face CENSORED. Pregnancy, then a baby. "Andie named him Paddywhack, and we have no objections. At all. None."
And so on (http://community.livejournal.com/sim_winchesters/1598.html).
Zomg a video!!!!!11one! (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ppHpS8-wpJs)
The journey continues...

This story is just too awful to not submit here.

Here is one of her lovely quotes, "I used to be an english major so i know what you are talking about in my grammer usage. i will work on that for the next one."

Post by: Kyna on 2008 August 21, 07:43:22
What's even funnier is that quote is a response to someone complaining that she keeps typing the word I as lowercase.  And she's still in school but "used to be an English major".  I wonder if she switched majors due to failing as an English major?

Do we really need 6 shots of the character giving that vampire dude a rose?  Seems to me this "story" was just an excuse to post that sequence of shots, because there's not much else to the story.

Rules nitpick here:  How does a Legacy sim (i.e. a sim fresh out of CAS) get a job in the Art career?  If the Legacy sim was a YACAS sim, then surely the story should start at Uni.

That reminds me of this. (http://encyclopediadramatica.com/Virginia_Tech_massacre#Cho:_Playwright.2C_Author.2C_Comedic_Genius)

Quote from: Encyclopedia Dramatica
Cho had written several lol plays for his English class which have been leaked onto the internet. They are entitled "Richard McBeef" and "Mr. Brownstone", respectively. Yes, that's right. Richard. Fucking. MCBEEF. In both of these plays Cho displays horrendous grammar and punctuation, which is certainly to be expected for a slant, but what is ironic is that Cho was an ENGLISH major. Keep this in mind when you read such wonderful lines as "Why am I so angry at you! Because you murdered my father so you can get into my mother's pant!--" and "I just said that his name sounds like kidney stone of the ass and that's why he is always gruffy and angry. His shit is so thick and so oddly shaped that he can't go and all his shit are piled up in his intestines all the way up to his chest. He probably rips his sphincter to relieve a single gram of turd after two hours of pushing, sweating, teeth clenching, screeming in frustration, and holding breath for a half gram of green mold shit." This masterful, artfully-constructed prose could truly only come from a senior English major. Cho's fellow students did not agree that Richard McBeef and Mr. Brownstone were the two greatest plays ever created by an autistic Korean English major and said that the plays "were really morbid and grotesque" and "like something out of a nightmare".

Another nice quote from her story:

I interrupted, "The plan for us?!"

I think back when i was in high school and all i cared about was writing my autobiography. [...] I read all of these Sims 2 stories and they are sooo GOOD and then i look at mine and they are shitty.

Holy crap, her autobiography.

Holy crap, her autobiography.

BWA HA HA!  A 12, writing an autobiography.

"So, like, I was born in a hospital to two white, middle-class married parents with no complications whatsoever. I moved into a house with 1.5 siblings, a dog, a cat, my parents, and a white picket fence. I liked my Big Wheel and Barbies.

I went to school and mingled with my peers. I cared a lot about what they wore and watched on TV and listened to on CDs and the games they played and did my best to fit in by doing everything exactly the same, even though I am a unique and special snowflake. I parrot my parents' political beliefs and religious beliefs and think I am a deep and original thinker.

Now I'm in high school and I have a crush on this boy who doesn't know I am alive. My specialness and unique genius will make my autobiography a best-seller worldwide, and maybe that boy will ask me to the dance. He has hidden depths and is The One, I just know it. Oh Josh Kevin Brad Tyler Dylan Cody Jennifer. Jennifer? I think I'm teh gai. Jennifer is totally awesome. She has hidden depths and is definitely The One. I wish she would ask me to the dance. I'm going to hell because I am teh gay. Maybe I am bi. No one has ever dealt with these issues before, ever.

I am a radical punk rocker rebel because I think I am bi. My best friends think they are bi, too. Today at the Johnny Rockets, the jukebox like, magically, was playing our song. "Rollin' with da homies..." *tearstains* It was a sign from my personal guardian angel that Mikie and I are meant to be. I have decided I am not really gay after all.

Math is hard. I hope Daddy buys me the car I want on my birthday. I think I am too fat. Gerald Way is totally hot. I like french fries. Parents just don't understand. I yearn for popularity but despise the popular. P.E. sucks. Johnny Depp is totally hot. My nose is too big. I can't wait until my braces came off. Nick Carter is totally hot. I am special because I read a book not on my summer reading list. I am deep and sensitive poet. My poetries, let me sho u dem. Hello Kitty is kawaii. My feet are too big. My boobs are too small. My hair, like, totally sucks. My mom got mad and said you're livin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air."

I agree with everything you just said Lorelei, being 13 12. I hate those emo people on other message boards who always say they are bi, and always say they are a cutter and they are proud. They always complain about how their parents never let them do anything. At least they have 2 parents who care about them.

It sure could, especially since so many of the stolen things are not meant for the Sims and end up huge and laggy or poking through walls.

Or it could be another category because finding where things are stolen from is like a fun treasure hunt and may deserve its own month!

Finally, an excuse to use my natural "BAH!  HUMBUG!" to make fun of people, and posting means I won't have to judge.  :P
