The Sims 4 - Game of Bugs

Image
      Ahhh, the Sims. A game that has been around forever and the developers have yet to listen to their customers. The Sims 4, the newest addition to the sims franchise is a simulation video game where you can create characters, dress them, have them get jobs, have families, go to school, and in some people's worlds, torture, has been neglected in the way of needing updates to fix important bug issues. When Maxis released the game, it was sitting at a whopping $50. Over time, they have released multiple expansion, game, and stuff packs to add to the diversity of the game.

Volkswagen April Fools Joke

 I was interested in this article because companies don't show enough humor in the media. I think that more companies should show humor because it makes them more relatable and makes them seem more human than money hungry robots.

     You may have noticed my title is a tad... weird. Thank my fiancé for that. It's pretty awkward for me to do introductions, which I am sure others feel the same. I'm not sure when that started honestly, but here I am, an awkward potato. I've always liked people and have been told many times I should have been a counselor, but I prefer the artistic and freeing side of life.  From an early age, I've always shown an interest in any kind of art, from singing to wood burning to crocheting. As long as I was creating something, I was a pretty happy person. My main focus at that time however was volcanoes, and I had decided I was going to be a volcanologist at the age of four. When I got older and into higher education my focus shifted to music and drawing because I moved away from the Pacific Northwest to the tornado-ridden state of Oklahoma. After I graduated high school I received a scholarship for choir, but my family had fallen on hard times and I declined the schol...
