BIRD OF PARADISE - Part 19 - Rags to Riches (Sims 4 Seasons)

[@chloelim1945]

me, an unhelpful viewer that listens to james talking about great suggestions from other viewers: oh

[@sarinarrr]

fallenpankake hahahahaha this comment deserves all the likes

[@makaylaegert2149]

grizzlybe4r same!!

[@bbqchicken1]

NOOOOOOOOOOO HE DIDNT SAY "AND HAVE AN AWESOME DAY" THE VIDEO IS STILL NOT OVER SEMAJ LOL

[@MORGARMY]

have you checked the mail lately?? last episode for richies birthday it said that he was expecting a present from his grandpa in the mail and to watch out for it.

[@LivinInSim]

It's the top post now!! Also, Mario probably texted Katrina that the kids are ignoring him again, and she used her artifact to put a curse on your game....... I hope not, tho!

[@BethanieEdits]

You should get the parenthood board that allows you to set curfew. Especially as Raggy is about to become a teen

[@blugill2273]

Bethanie Fails yeah i mention that previously too

[@samanthakate2117]

No she isn't, it's not her birthday until winter, James didn't read the calendar, it's Lady's birthday not Raggy's. Still good to get one though!

[@BethanieEdits]

Samantha Kate yeah I realised he meant to say Lady II shortly after I wrote the comment 😂😂

[@lc4822]

Rename Lady 2 as Little Lady

[@daniellysousa8439]

L C I was thinking just Baby Bigwallet. Continuing the great name tradition on this season of R2R. xD

[@Priscapup]

L C while that is a cute suggestion, to me it sounds like a Western movie. You know, kind of “Well how you doin’, little Lady”. Since he is just calling her Baby, Baby Bigwallet does have quite a lyrical ring. With undertones of Dirty Dancing. ;)

[@darcyvandelaar6200]

I like this idea, and her going by Ellie for short. Plus Little and Lady were two family members, which is cool.

[@samanthakate2117]

Darcy van Deer .....what does Ellie have to do with anything?

[@shaydowding4528]

Samantha Kate because she’s very ‘L’-y

[@kazebracorn8513]

This episode should’ve been called “Oh, that’s the other thing I need to do”

[@isavermeulen9876]

Welkcome to en new episode of lags to glitches

[@JamesTurnerYT]

😂😂 too true

[@isabellathefirst8126]

Funny and true. I LOVE IT!

[@lauren.sparrow7784]

15:05 “Stop being sad and start being awesome” ~ Semaj 2018

[@Time_Princess]

That coffe table was blurred because it was too sexy. LEWD.

[@isabellagonzalez944]

When and where

[@maximielos]

32:00 :D

[@skyechimes658]

I'm surprised you decided on the iconic necklace over the bird of paradise for the thumbnail, lol. It's been a whole thing. Haha.

[@milktiddie9554]

skyechimes658 Well he said he would on delis vid

[@LSJR1738]

skyechimes658 lol

[@SamFlanders1]

'Cause Luna is Sebastian's Bird of Paradise 🐝💞

[@avaditto2600]

Can we just all agree that we don’t have any clue how sims 4 gardening works?

[@only2callsaway441]

Ehh its actually pretty easy once you get lvl ten gardening

[@ajschwartz2012]

Can confirm! 3 kids rooms in my house with single beds and they are all against the wall. And my master bedroom the bed is centered. Weird. But true.

[@kathleenmorningstar9642]

Blueyes0787 We don't have kids yet but we have a spare room with a double bed. The double bed is against the wall and our queen bed in the master is in the middle. The spare room is mostly like that because only my brothers come to stay over and both don't care lol. It's weird how that works out.

[@sarinecine]

I think it's because kids tend to fall off the bed at night. When I was little, I used to sleep with my mom on her bed for two people in the middle of the room and I used to fall so frequently, but when I started to sleep in my own single bed (against the wall) , I never fell again. It's really weird.

[@llamalady]

I always wanted my bed to be in the middle of the room as a kid, like all princess beds, but my parents thought it took too much space that way, and made it a really awkward space/ too full (my room is not that big), so it was always against the wall

[@greenangel2938]

My daughter has a queen size bed and its against the wall... not because she fell out tho, because she wanted more space in her room but still a bigger bed since her german shepard likes to sleep with her lol

[@ShadoeLandman]

We had singles against the wall when I was growing up, but that's mainly because that's where they fit. And the master bed was in the middle so my parents could each get into/out of the bed without crawling over each other. I currently have a full size, but it's still against the wall because I only share it with a cat.

[@Bizzee_Bee]

24:18 top quality parenting 👏 Edit: Writing in a private journal helps with their emotional control. Might be a good time to invest.

[@OlgaGax]

It also helps a lot with bad moods and develops writing skill once they're teens or have mastered creativity. All my kids and teens get a journal and keep it in their inventory at all times.

[@MammaBear.]

Unwinding with Classical Music also helps with emotional control. :)

[@HailingHayles15]

LOL patchy went on the water slide 😂

[@mallorywang5568]

I felt so conflicted on how to rate the Dine Out pack. I love the concept of it, but it's so darn buggy I had to give it a bad rating. I'm still amazed you made it work for a whole series.

[@OlgaGax]

Mallory idk, I get so much gameplay out of it and I love it despite the bugs. But I don’t really own restaurants. I love to build them and go there with my Sims!

[@alicine-sims8988]

Yeah, when my sims go to restraunts it is SO BAD. It takes like two hours to order anything and the game always hires completely incompetent employees. Last time I tried to go the waitress dropped their food on the floor and gave up. It's a great idea, but how it's set up now just doesn't work. I haven't tried owning a restraunt though, that might be alright.

[@shaelynmartin1996]

I get the same. I wish I watched more gameplay before buying it because I wanted to run restaurants so bad, but it's so buggy that I can't play it. Every time I loaded my own restaurant, the game would glitch and break. But I rated neutral because I still love it and I can still take my sims out to eat, they just can never fulfill their dream of owning a high class restaurant.

[@cyvintyranea5329]

I'm the same. It takes me a whole sim day to go out for a meal so I voted it down But I love the decor

[@priaa.1010]

The SAME!!!

[@anna__poynter]

I think Semaj deserves a medal just for finally getting the bird of paradise 😂😂

[@buffalosaucemakesmytoescur4171]

Anna Poynter 😂 I know! My Gardner sim cannot for the life of her get the bird of paradise to grow!

[@jordanst.germain9534]

I love how you complained about them getting the day off for NYE when it's a Saturday and they all had the day off anyway lol

[@Bizzee_Bee]

This series is taking over my life. I *literally* plan my day around it. Help me

[@Punkenve]

Bethany Manson i do too 😂

[@Bizzee_Bee]

Yass Cynthia! At least we're not alone 😂

[@ChronicFatigueHope]

I now not only think "Champagne" as sham-pag-nae, and "Arrangement" as ah-range-ment, in James's voice in game, but I also think "Jesus" as jeeeeez-zez IRL in James's voice... this LP LITERALLY taking over my life. LOL

[@Bizzee_Bee]

MissCharlotte 😂LITERALLY

[@LivinInSim]

Geee-- Zeuz! When I take the dog out, I now always say "Do you have to go poo-P?" complete with the popping noise at the end.

[@w1ll0ww]

Semaj, it’s not Raggy’s birthday on New Skill Day, it’s the baby’s birthday! Look at 11:27! Raggy’s picture was just there because she was going to school on that day and “busy”. Also, I think Baby Bigwallet has a nice ring to it.

[@yorguntibbiyeli]

w1ll0ww I felt so sorry for the baby 😂

[@LivinInSim]

The baby is blue! Resuscitate immediately!!

[@shelbyroot6061]

I rated based off of what content and interactions the packs bring to the game. If it furthers gameplay capabilities then I rated it good. If it didn't really bring more value in further gameplay it was bad.

[@Bookmaster007]

Richie has an obsession with playing with dolls. Hmm, sounds familiar...because we're all watching a man play with virtual dolls here. :D

[@missnight0wl333]

If you put the lights from Parenthood in the kids' rooms, you can delete Coolala Defender Lights. The Parenthood ones also protect from the monster under the bed. Edit to add: the moodlet appears only when the kids wake up. Unless there's something else I don't know about either.

[@estellederrough8498]

"Be grateful...you prick" Best line ever

[@nyxitylee2094]

"The bees are fertilizing!!!!" *Shakes head.* They are pollinating. :P

[@laflorcarnal]

James upload schedule is my reason to wake up early even on my winter break

[@commonsense9610]

Romina Noël winter break? What country are you in?

[@Aaron-lc8nf]

most of the soutehern hemisphere is in winter so guessing english probably Australia or New Zealand

[@isabellagonzalez944]

It's summer here in AMERICA

[@carly7635]

It's summer here in the United Kingdom :)

[@squirrel6102]

Aaron Z yeah I remember my brothers had different summer break then me and they lived there

[@Midnightpigeon666]

Seeing Patchy enjoying the water slide is the best thing ever! 😂 my day is now complete. 💚

[@Twiggy76493]

Patchy slip and sliding in the background is amazing.

[@abbeythompson8158]

11:09 PATCHY IS USING THE SLIP IN SLIDE IN THE BACKGROUND AND I WAS DYING

[@kyhomesicle1616]

Get Richie to write in a journal from parenthood, it increases his emotional control.

[@kikia.4516]

Is it me or has he not enjoyed playing a family this much since the Funke family in Sims 3? More quality parenting please! Haha

[@sabrinatby]

11:31 it's Lady II birthday not Raggy 12:34 the French toast is still on the stove 31:54 there's no point having or removing the day off...it's Saturday 😅

[@Soprano2013]

Sabrina Yes. Yes. Yes. thank you!

[@PrismaticPri]

Lol Patchy casually using the waterside at 11:10 in the corner of the screen had me cracking up. 😂

[@donnapotts2238]

My 4 year old daughter has started watching these videos with me now and asks me everyday if James has made a video.

[@Univ3rsalis]

Someone: mushrooms are awesome fertilizers! 🎉 James: gets 1st excellent quality plant in ep 19

[@suddenlyzoe]

Really loving these longer videos

[@RememberRox]

Forget bird of paradise! ORCHIDS are the real pain! I've had my spliced plant for two generations now and still no orchid.

[@OlgaGax]

How many do you have, and are they outside? Both definitely help. I made 4 lily on snapdragon + 4 snapdragon on lily before i got mine. But oh how OP are they, the essence of life!

[@RememberRox]

I only have the one, but i didnt think it would be that hard to get a spliced flower, considering it didn't take that long to produce a bird of paradise. It's also inside, so that it may grow all year. Thanks, i guess i should get more spliced plants! And ill put them outside see if that helps.

[@SophiaKumar]

RememberRox When you put the plant outside during the seasons it does best, the plants grows better so yeah get multiple spliced plants to increase your chances and put them outside to help them grow better.

[@RememberRox]

thanks guys!

[@savvvvveybeezy]

I got lucky and fished mine out lol

[@flourandflowersgu]

I love the personality of the kids. Ragged is a outgoing social butterfly. She’s learning to become a leader through scouts and she’s totally in control wanting to train a Scooby. I really see her as a preppy yet quirky type. And Richie so far has been creative and bright, with his inteeetinf clothing choice, and drawing and learning to play the violin. I can’t wait to see how Lady ll/baby turns out.

[@Southern_simmer]

Did survey

[@aliciabalves]

When the sims are cold they get a negative moodlet, but it doesn't happen when there is a fireplace on in the room. It doesn't actually affect the whole house though, they might be cold in their bedrooms, so you would need the thermostat

[@generaldisclosure2407]

Sebastian's putting on some pounds and starting to move from 'dad bod' to beer gut, huh?

[@kirstybaby1992]

General Disclosure what's a dad bod?

[@soulgirl13ash]

kirsty fleming a dad bod is short for dad body stereotypically meaning chubbier, less muscle, like a giant, cuddly teddy bear

[@kirstybaby1992]

RaspberryElf I know that but dads don't have a body type

[@soulgirl13ash]

kirsty fleming it’s a joke, a stereotype

[@simsulfurtrash3036]

Why yes James, your kids actually can have a day off on Saturday.

[@frameturtle]

For the kitchen you should get that herb decoration from Laundry Day, it really suits them.

[@smalpiper4999]

We love our iconic necklace wearing queen

[@platinumdudunsparce_98]

33:35 One of the most disappointing things is that children can’t take care of the garden in The Sims 3 and 4. In The Sims and The Sims 2, the children were able to water flowers, and in The Sims 2 Seasons, the children were able to take full care of the garden, and also they were able to get the garden badges like everyone else.

[@cmoore_8234]

At 37:01, did nobody see this? It says Sebastian found a frog while he was weeding, but the frogs' name is Luna Feldman (a.k.a. his wife)!!!

[@Cindyrella2003]

James: "Why can't kids help with gardening?" Wait for it. Only 3 more years to go. 😂

[@MissiGolden]

James! If you rock the baby, it’ll fall asleep. Good for when baby wakes up in the middle of the night.

[@BreeSimulated]

You'll know the ARRANGments are bad/off when they are literally ponging. Like they will get the green stench lines and it will say it is wilted or something like that.

[@link9328]

As if! I was literatelly watching Deli's make over a minute ago and I was wondering if you would actually pick the necklace for the thumbnail! Good job 😂😂😂

[@diannebaruela8915]

wonderdreamland wahahahahaha same!!

[@jessica3.14]

I went to the hospital with a 108 degree fever last night and I’m so glad to have your videos to make me feel better

[@beep_beep_]

Jessica Ham Oh no! Get well soon!

[@SWAGGY_MCSWAGSWAG]

Good thumbnail.

[@EnuVibes]

Okay, but the real question is...Did it save?

[@meganharrison9408]

In the uk we get 3 weeks off for Christmas and that runs over New Years too

[@BreeSimulated]

*madly refreshes youtube sub box at 11pm every night until semaj's video goes live*

[@ninamagnani3639]

I relate to this so much

[@Bizzee_Bee]

2:30pm in the afternoon here but me too hun 😂

[@BreeSimulated]

Yess he has us trained 🤣

[@Aim_Hawks]

930am here - and it makes my morning at work so much better!

[@buffalosaucemakesmytoescur4171]

**Also madly refreshed but at **9:30****

[@simsulfurtrash3036]

Your sims have the reward traits so they can't feel smaller temperature changes. They can still feel the big ones (heatwaves wearing cold outfits and vice-versa) but nothing from the thermostat or the fireplace.

[@Emcathero]

The iconic necklace!

[@karciakuciej1691]

yessss it's so iconic haha

[@SophiaKumar]

Em OMG I SEE YOU ON ALL OF DELIS VIDEOS!!!! YOU ARE MY KWEEN!!!!😂😂😂

[@diannebaruela8915]

i love how long every episode of this series 💝

[@Nalthani94]

OK i have a final coming soon but i stopped studying when I got the notification. That’s real love right there james😂

[@larissaluna3616]

Nouf haha same!! :D

[@robinjakobsen]

James, the first human being to ever get me to voluntarily do a questionnaire xD Edit: And tbh, my least favorite one was Spa Day, to me it was the most boring pointless thing ever, enjoyed My First Pet pack more and that says a lot, considering how bad that one was.

[@CountessJJ]

Robin Jakobsen I really like the wellness skill though so personally I still think its better.

[@TheLaurarararara]

I personally like spa day, I like the yoga aspect of it for some reason haha

[@anasyx]

I love how James always said that he is going to a festival for seeds and flowers and then ignores the notification when it pops up XD

[@toujourskate]

JAMES FINALLY GOT BIRDS OF PARADISE!!! PLANT THE BIRDS OF PARADISE YOU HARVESTED. SO YOU DONT HAVE TO WAIT FOR THAT SPLICED PLANTS TO GROOOW. in the Philippines both New Years Eve and New Years Day are holidayzzz

[@toujourskate]

ColossalGoat77 I DIDNT EVEN NOTICED THAT OH MY GOD HXBSBA

[@roguesimr3756]

Yes pllleeease plant the one you harvested.

[@venti6605]

I knew it, you're a fellow filipino. Saw your comments on the previous parts of the series 😂

[@toujourskate]

See J. hehehe

[@KeithTheFifth]

Wait ur a Filipino too?! Taught I was the only one here and feeling creeped out that no one likes the Sims. Aym a weirdo.

[@JustRegularLuna]

That thumbnail is amazing haha love it! Also, I recently had to track down Luna on the gallery and add her to my current save because she is awesome~ Loving the series!

[@kaylahuntington7059]

Love this new family side of Semaj! The bedrooms definitely need some stuff to fill in the empty spaces though! 😊

[@thegirlwiththatface]

Patchy going on the slip and slide at 11:09 had me dying! So cute!!

[@amynoelle114]

I miss the Mad Scientist LP. I hope you continue it.

[@SykoShanzify]

Patchy was using the water slide! So funny!

[@glamsimslv]

When the arrangements go bad it will say “WITHERED” and flies will be flying around it.

[@whitneyr4296]

I'm rewatching these. And I love how at 11:00, patchy was sliding on the waterslide in the back ground and no one is talking about it

[@rosemarstaller326]

Maybe you could do like a day that you spend playing with your children . Use the swings together, swim in the kiddy pool, or invite their friends over

[@sarascott12345]

You should finish Sebastian’s aspiration and get him the Super Green Thumb trait from the rewards store.

[@elizahamilton9453]

I absolutely love how long it took you to realize there was a poo inside 😂😂

[@merri_0153]

Patchy rocks that water slide! Love Patchy. Pity he can’t fertilise plants though, would be helpful. But watching Patchy clean up my toddler‘s mess is brilliant. He’s like a live in Butler that doesn’t need to be paid. Wicked!

[@ashlynehere]

You ACTUALLY made the thumbnail her necklace omg

[@ashullu]

JINSOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kaitlyncoleman7872]

Richie is unexpectedly turning out to be the tortured artist/musician stereotype since getting that violin. At 25:57 he's literally just looking down, being very sad, while wearing shades and a fedora.

[@ChellBellez]

You should give Raggy Luna's necklace once she becomes a teenager and take it off of Luna.

[@annedemerre]

Patchy using the water slide made me giggle. I've seen him on the swing a few times already but I never thought he'd autonomously use the water slide as well.

[@bscott6451]

Lags to glitches

[@AngelaSmith-vf2to]

James, you're so much nicer to your sims than I am with mine. You take their plates and "wash" them... same thing with putting the clothes in the hamper. I'm always making my sims do their OWN work, lol.

[@msjdub7767]

James have me waiting on his videos like a drug addict lmao

[@spoonytoonz]

james: we arent even going to school today? me, yelling into my phone: ITS SATURDAY

[@gxbree]

if there's a reason I wouldn't like Seasons it'd be cause of the major need of patches the game is basically v borked since

[@k1rsty]

James: *Goes into build mode within the first 3-minutes* Me: *Gets excited about him finally turning the selling table around* James: *Exits build mode* Me: *cries*

[@Dorkella_]

Living for Patchy on the slip-n'-slide.

[@MyMelody5]

I like how the personality of your Sims just comes out naturally. While Raggy is the over achiever, social and outgoing scouts, Richie is the savvy creative one. Can't wait to see how Lady II will be.

[@courtneydunnx]

" she went to scouts and the game went to trash " 😂😂😂

[@sabrinatby]

Yeah!! *THE ICONIC NECKLACE THUMBNAIL* !!!! Deligracy will be proud of you James..I'm glad you finally did it.. (happy tears) (dramatic)

[@tiptipzz]

Regardless of New Year’s Eve they wouldn’t have gone to school anyways because it’s Saturday lol

[@KatieeGloria]

Everytime I've been watching for a while I get scared everytime James says "well I think...." Cause I think he is going to be saying "well I think I'm gunna leave this part here" I love these series!!!

[@broknskull]

Please change your house traits to better soil and homey! (great for gardening! :D)

[@JadeTheFirst]

Clo Tay I think he mentioned once he counts that as cheating

[@eileveelie5938]

"Stop Being sad and Start being Awesome" Best advice ever 10/10

[@ellamcdonald2599]

Hey James ! You should make heaps of arrangements and save them up for the flea market !?

[@itsJennyyBean]

The kids always sitting at the outdoor table is giving me Super Sim throwbacks. Remember when all of Max’s kids would sit together and do homework around the patio table? I miss Max

[@kelseyburger8967]

Nothing wrong w dad bods. they’re cuteeee 😂😊

[@nettness]

LMAO SO MUCH your New Year's Public Holiday crisis. Out of all the things in this video for you to suddenly have a reaction to. You're adorable. Your poll made me realise just HOW MUCH DLC there is O_O;; And how much we don't have. I'll be super interested to see the results, though, to help me with my purchase decisions on what to get from the vast amount we're missing.

[@marianne5055]

#raggymadeitlaggy

[@randomvulcan]

I love the difference in your voice at start, and when the game has broken your spirit at the end. Poor James :p

[@HonorWillow]

It's cause she left the house. Without Raggy, the game gets laggy.

[@MsSagaEl]

The fact you actually used the iconic necklace as the thumbnail. Yes James!

[@octastic24]

Your laggy game is what my game is like all the time. It makes it miserable to play.

[@tiffanyhicks8785]

Jessie Reissman my desktop does it too it’s so frustrating!!

[@CountessJJ]

Any better after the new update?

[@octastic24]

CountessJJ no i think it’s just my computer. I need a serious upgrade

[@EverStar5]

I just love your style of LP. Its super easy to watch and you get right to working on the end goal. Keep creating and I will be here watching :)
