heya alls,
just posting this to tell you about a sims2, Homestar reference,


if you look in the outdoors section; the grill is called the grillinator, wich i think might be a reference to trogdor the burninator

is it actually a H* reference, or just a coincidence?
or maybe it's a ghost

The Brothers C din't create the suffix "inator". It was coined in monster truck rallies. But here's a real reference:

Well, it mightn be another reference. I mean, we allready know that the Sims made reference to H*R once, so it's very possible that this is another one.

Yep. Stink Master 20X6.

Anyway, I really don't think the Grillinator is a reference to Burninator.
But go ahead and think what you want. Or email Maxis.

I'm sure you can just go to the company website that makes the Sims and they'll have to have some sort of e-mail adress you can contact them on.

But the chances of them replying aren't very high.

Sometimes you never know. I mean, how many people have had e-mails answered by TBC, they're very busy with their work.

That just proves my point. I doubt Maxis or whoever will email you back and tell you whether the Grillinator is a H*R reference.

I really don't think so. Burninator was totally making fun of the movie starring that guy, The Terminator. I'm very sure the grillinator originated there too.

You're probably right. Although with the StinkSmasher 20X6 you can never be too sure.

Well, it did come right out after Japanese cartoon. But your right, it may be a coincidence, but that's one heck of a coincidence.

Skunk! Think about it, man! As ramrod said, it's one crapload of a coincidence if it is one. A-like-a this:
Stinkoman 20X6
StinkSmasher 20X6
Coincidence? I think not.
