QUICK Poll. Farmer dislikes Gardening??

Sure. My Sims already have a pile on their plate. Iris is a single-parent (windowed in my head cannon). She lives with her young daughter on a haunted farm they inherited. Not to mention the SimRealist mods I have which require extra laundry, hair cutting/maintenance and lawn mowing :o ANYWAY. Iris just threw the option to develop "Dislikes Gardening" Should I do it?

  • Motivation to get herself together and get outta there!
    Or hire a gardener...
    Or convince daughter that gardening is really fun and she should do it...
    Or marry a farmer...
    Or marry someone who lives far far away...
  • I find it unlikely that the gardening aspect would be the part of the lifestyle which she'd dislike.

    Gardening is very theurapeutic, peaceful and meditative.

    I grew up on a ranch where daily chores were a real pain as a kid, but working in the garden is the one thing I couldn't help but appreciate. Mucking Stalls, chopping wood for winter, dealing with nasty, filthy chickens...hated pretty much all of that. But gardening was a delight and I honestly find it hard to imagine that anyone in that lifestyle doesn't find they enjoy it. If a kid who just hated 'chores' in general like I did appreciated doing it, it's got to be hard to hate. :lol:

    I voted for "Yes. Sure" though, because the game doesn't have the options to "dislike" the things that really are hateable for the country lifestyle.
  • For anyone who may be interested. Iris now dislikes gardening.

    or never become a farmer in the first place and stop suggesting excuses...
  • It makes sense that she dislikes gardening on a haunted farm. In so many horror movies with a farm, it's a tall corn or wheat field that's hiding monsters, ghosts or even aliens ...

    I didn't know there was lawn mower mods though. That sounds fun.

    But that doesn't mean we won't get a Mow The Lawn kit later this year.
    ... i can't think of any words for mow and lawn that rhyme nicely though, so maybe not.

    @Stormkeep
    Well, Bust the Dust was such a classic original, but there could be, uhh, Begone the Lawn ... or, Hang On and Mow the Lawn! ... Hmm, not much rhymes with lawn, I see your point ...
