 So, thankfully mswn  was able to give me a handy lesson in all things Korean (read: how not to be a total twat when it comes to naming your sims), and I have hereby seen the error of my ways, that being my trusting the internet at all to help me accurately name sims whose culture I admittedly know only a small amount about. So I'm hereby deleting my ( Read more... )

I don't even want to talk about her name before. xD I found it on a HORRIBLE list of Korean girl names off the internet that completely misinformed me. OTL Not only did it sound like she had two last names, one being in the beginning of her first name, but the rest of the name sounded really boyish. As in, not a Korean girl's name in the slightest. xD

And right, I am so enlightened now to everything about Korean people! 8D Haha not really, I was just really tired when I wrote this (it was 2 am) and couldn't think of better phrasing.

Hey, you never said, "This is Kim Whoever and she has a THE MOST KOREAN name EVER!".
Her name was Kim Whoever, Korean-American and last time i checked Kim is a PERFECTLY fine name in , you know, America. And even if she wasn't part American, is there a law in Korea, forbidding you to name your kid whatever the fuck you want?
Besides, it's a damn game, if you want to name your sim Toilet Bowl, first name -Toilet, last name -Bowl, and say that she came from Mars, you can do that. Cause it's a FREAKING GAME, people! Or are you then gonna get secrets about how people don't actually live on Mars and even if they did, they would never be named Toilet Bowl, cause the Marshian law would have banned that name from ever being used!?!?! People need to get a fucking life or at least something better to do on their computer than judging how other people want to play (like porn).

Haha, I mentioned that to someone that in the past I've given my sims super weird names just for the hell of it, sometimes close to Toilet Bowl. xD

I guess the main problem was that Korean-American culture is a sensitive topic and people can get defensive about it, so the real issue was just my sharing her. Had I kept to her myself in my game, it wouldn't have caused any problems. Oh well. *shrugs* And that's hilarious that you're advocating looking at porn as a pastime, I love it. xD <3
