|
|
I’m such a loser… I’ve got a school dance tonight and I don’t have a date.
|
|
You’re not a loser, you’re cool!
|
|
I know I’m cool, that’s the problem! But being cool is terrible! It means you’re *trying*!
|
|
Being a loser is way better, but not as good as being a nerd.
|
|
|
Is this like one of those opposite things, like where “bad” means “good”?
|
|
No! Bad still means bad! God, you’re so old!
|
|
|
Does “old” mean "young"??
|
|
|
NO!
|
Task: "Make Empty-Nest Marge Contemplate Her Age". The job takes place at the Future Simpson's House or Simpson House and takes 8 hours.
If Zia Simpson is owned: Task: "Make Zia Try Not to Be Cool".*

Pt. 2
| After tapping on Empty-Nest Marge's exclamation mark
|
|
I’m too old to relate to Zia.
|
|
Yeah, you’re pretty out of touch…
|
|
Lisa, that’s not very nice!
|
|
|
It’s not a bad thing. Grammas should be old and out of touch, that’s what makes them so sweet.
|
|
|
You don’t want to be that pathetic grandmother who’s trying to use teen-age lingo and staying up with the latest fashion trends, do you?
|
|
Yes! Being pathetic has got to be good according to the rules of language that Zia established!
|
| Task: "Make Empty-Nest Marge Play With Auto-Hairstyler". The job takes 12 hours.
|
|
|
Hey Zia, check out my new look! Aren’t I “pathetic”?

Yes!

|
|
Hey boys, you still speak in a way where what you say is exactly what you mean, don’t you?
|
|
Of course we do, Gramma! We’re post-ironic.
|
|
|
Phew! Do you want to hang out with Gramma?
|
|
|
No, we’re going to go do reckless, dangerous stuff with Grampa Homer.
|
|
|
I think I liked it better when they lied to me…

Pt. 4
| After tapping on Empty-Nest Marge's exclamation mark
|
|
|
Homie, how do you relate so well to our grandkids? They all love you.
|
|
The trick is to let them play video games… and give them energy drinks… lots of energy drinks. Sometimes they keep drinking them in their sleep!
|
|
|
You’re letting our grandkids play violent video games?
|
|
|
Marge, everyone plays violent games nowadays! Where have you been the last thirty years??
|
|
|
Mostly zonked out on pills…
|
|
|
Speaking of which. Let’s go get wasted!
|
|
|
I don’t want to take pills anymore!
|
|
|
No, “wasted” is the food they serve at that new romantic restaurant that just opened. Don’t you know nothing is what it means anymore?
|
| Task: "Make Empty-Nest Marge and Retired Homer Go Out for a Romantic Dinner". The job takes place at an Eatery or Brown House and takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
This was wonderful, Homer. As soon as we finish dessert we can go dancing!

|
*ZZZZZZZZZZZZ*
|
|
|
I’ll still never get used to the way Z’s come out of people’s mouths when they sleep now…

Pt. 5
| After tapping on Zia Simpson's exclamation mark
|
|
|
Hey Gramma, I need some help with a school assignment. Can you help me?
|
|
|
You want my help?! I would be happy to! What’s the assignment?
|
|
|
It’s a history paper. I need to interview someone who was alive before there was Ultranet or television.
|
|
|
Well, there used to be this thing, “respecting your elders…”
|

Wow, Gramma! You’ve had a way more interesting life than I thought a person like you was capable of having!
|
|
|
Thanks?
|
|
|
I’m sorry I blew you off earlier. You’re just so lame and I didn’t want to be around you because you made me sad.
|
|
|
Really?
|
|
|
Yes.
|
|
|
I finally understand my granddaughter!
