A Sims 2 Prosperity Challenge

Round 2 – The Campbell Family

May 23, 2008 · 6 Comments

Things are starting to get a bit crazy in this prosperity challenge. After the Jackson family I expected things to get somewhat dull again, but the Campbell’s decided they just wouldn’t stand for my favoritism. And I must say they succeeded. I really am getting a soft spot for my sim Tiffany Campbell by now, she turned out such a cutie!

I hope you enjoy my rants and raves about the Campbell family!

The Campbell Family – Trailer Park Boys

The Campbell kiddies grew up without a proper birthday party. They just didn’t have enough money to waste on something as decadent as 4 birthday cakes. So it’s no surprise the kids grew up as trailer trash!

No kidding! All the boys decided they wanted leather jackets as outerwear and Tiffany grew up into some very casual outerwear with some very obvious cleavage.

Oh no, who’s that! A police officer! What kind of trouble have these kids gotten themselves into? No problems at all. The reason why I couldn’t get them I birthday cake was because granny Martha needed the money to buy them I birthday gift and the officer has come to drop it off.

All the kids had a want for a pet and Martha decided they had endured so much that she would buy them a little kitten named Sushi. Tiffany immediately loved the little furball and even decided to bring it with her to work ( a drive through clerk!).

Tiffany’s outerwear might show a little cleavage but it’s nothing compared to the casual outfit she grew up in. According to Tiffany all the cool kids wear this now and why should she stop wearing something because she looks so good in it.

But Martha sure had her doubts. She had already seen her daughter Nancy, Tiffany’s mother, hop from one guy to another in search for real love but always ending up with something artificial. And now her little girl Tiffany was looking more like her mother every day.

Tiffany even started bringing home some guy who she said was just a “friend” , but Martha sure didn’t trust the guy. She felt he was looking at Tiffany in an inappropriate way and the guy was an adult for crying out loud! He was way too old for her granddaughter!

When she ran into him the next day she decided to tell him what she thought of his behavior. ” Now look, mister. I know your not going to like what I’m about to tell you, but frankly I don’t care. I do care about my granddaughter however and I really think it’s in her best interest if you would stop seeing her! She’s just a young girl and getting involved with an older man will only get her hurt!”

The man tried to respond nicely at first, but when Martha started about how inappropriate his behavior was he actually became angry. “Now listen miss Campbell, I really don’t like being called a pervert! I have no intention what so ever to get romantically involved with your granddaughter. She told me she never had a real father and just liked to hang out with me. Tiffany’s a good kid and I care for her, that’s all! But don’t be afraid you won’t see me around here again!” And then he just left.

After the incident, Tiffany, kind of retreated to herself. She knew her grandmother had a tough time raising her and her brothers and she really didn’t want to make things any harder for her. So she decided that she wouldn’t bring any more friends home and she became kind of lonely. After a day of hard work there was a fresh layer of snow and she decided to make a snowman.

After she finished the snowman she told him all her problems, which meant she was out there for some time. In the end she got tired and decided to go to bed. Just in time too, because her skin had already turned purplish blue from the cold.

Author’s note: I really had no influence on their outerwear. I thought it was hilarious all the boys grew up into leather jackets. So appropriate!
That guy was kind of creepy. He didn’t leave the house for three days after the gypsy set him up with Tiffany. After Martha had a massive fight with him, I decided she should ask him to leave ;-) He really didn’t have any interest in Tiffany by the way and neither did Tiffany have any interest in him. It was the strangest thing.

    Hahaha, oh dear. Poor Tiffany is drawing in the pervs already. She better watch out, that was Shaniqua’s outfit during college (the pink cleavage jacket) and we know how SHE turned out, haha.

    The leather jackets thing is fantastic!

    edit: in addition to ACR, I’ve now also put InTeen in my game. So I was worried that Tiffany was in high risk of an inappropriate relationship. But luckily it was a poor match and I haven’t seen the guy around anymore! Still, I’d better watch out just in case the outfit isn’t the only thing she has in common with Shaniqua (Tiffany is a Romance sim too) ;-)

    I love the leather jackets! Tiffany is a little to revealing with her clothes! Oh my god, that guy did look creepy and perverted, and i’m sure he just wanted to be a “fatherly figure” in Tiffany’s life….NOT!!

    edit: At first I thought I had the guys mixed up, but when they came home from school and I watched them leave the bus I realized all the boys had leather jackets! It really made me laugh! And Tiffany’s choice of clothing was also very appropriate for the trailer park theme.

    I love seeing the kinds of outfits these kids grow up into. It’s more interesting to let them dress themselves sometimes, lol :)

    edit: after seeing these outfits, I’ve decided that I’ll let the sims choose their own outfits. Well, most of the times anyway. I know wouldn’t want any really inappropriate or ugly clothing because I’m way too much of a perfectionist for that ;-)

    I love your pics – especially the ones with the creepy old guy. He really looks like he’s about to grab Tiffany in one of them!
    I also love their trailer trash outfits :P

    edit: the guy really creeped me out! He definitely was looking inappropriately at Tiffany. Luckily Martha thought so as well. She had some nasty fights with that guy!

    Poor Tiffany, the only one she can talk to is a snowman.

    Red hair guy was kinda creepy and a little too old for Tiffany, what was the gypsy thinking?! Go Grandma!

    Their clothing choices were perfect and I love the pic with all three boys outside, it looks like a still from the Outsiders (old movie, it was on over the weekend)

    edit: That guy was definitely all wrong for Tiffany! Lucky grandma kicked him out ;-) The boys love to play “punch you, punch me”. It really fits their look as welll ;-)
