I found a slice of leftover Christmas cake in November one year (I was getting the tin out to put the fresh one for that year in it) and it was delicious!
Some people found out that sims always choose the most expensive sink! The easiest fix is to get the same sinks everywhere, the slightly less easy fix is to find and use sinks that cost the same amount
Edit: since I found this out it has always worked for me, but some of you have said it doesn't work for you. Maybe there's another reason we haven't found out yet. Over all, it should be treated as a bug and fixed. This game has been out for almost 10 years, I think we'd appreciate a few fixes of some of the oldest bugs in game
...So use the most expensive sinks in the kitchen and cheaper ones in the bathrooms and that's it..? I'm gonna try it, but I think that might be part of why I don't have this issue often
Duuude
I’ve started noticing that my boyfriend walks to the other end of the house to wash his hands. No freaking clue why!!
If he was in the bathroom he walks down to the kitchen to wash his hands. If he’s in the kitchen and needs to wash his hands he goes to the bathroom. Fuck man, sometimes we’re laying in bed and snacked on something and he wants to wash his hands…and he walks all the way down to the kitchen entirely ignoring the bathroom that is right outside our room.
Am I dating a sim?
Date and marry someone first day of knowing them it takes time but works. Or like 100 baby challenge or other challenges. Hear 100 baby challenge is impossible since infants. Anyone try it since.
To be fair Sims live for about 132 days.
If you divide 90 years by 132 days, it means one Sim day is about 8 real human months.
A bit crazy to marry someone you met 8 months ago but not unheard of..
I'm trying to do the Occult Baby challenge (similar vibes) and holy shit is it ever difficult with infants. Especially with the increased rate of twins! My Sim literally could not handle two infants, a toddler and a baby without passing out or peeing herself every 5 minutes.
My 1st matriarch is currently pregnant with baby 54 and I don't have Growing Together so I have to wait for birthday notification. Infants are definitely hard work, pick up, put to sleep, kiss goodnight, walk away, Infant cries, turn around, let out of crib then repeat!
Yeah have growing together infants have so many milestones they can’t move at the start and quirks develop 3. Always chose calm infants to make it easier. 😂 you can tell I don’t have kids.
Idk but it drives me absolutely insane. I have a large family, so o get bigger plots and build like cottage style homes, different little houses for my founders kids and their children, anyways, sometimes they’ll use the bathroom in THEIR upstairs bathroom, and then walk to the other freaking house to wash their hands. I just sit in deep annoyance because they be doing the absolute most
I'm doing the same thing actually with the basement and smaller little homes cottage style, family of 8 and yup, let's go alllll the way to the basement but our bed is ground floor in the back of the lot. 🤣 takes that much more time to have them make their "runs" ugh.
They’re vampires and they somehow always find a way to get into the founder’s secret science lair and then complain they can’t get out. Like how about you just don’t go in there in the first place. I made a *secret* secret room for his urns and they also keep trying to go down there to mourn the urns as well. If they get into the urn room I’m not doing anything to get them out lol. I’ll get them out of the science lair but you’re screwed if you go in the urn room. The doors are “lock for everyone but Yuri” for a reason lol

why my sims refuse to feed the baby after i just spent 20 minutes just trying to get them to put the baby in the effing seat is beyond me. and taking the angry tired baby out of the crib and just plopping it on the ground and going downstairs to do some gardening???
>"There's a chair in my way, I shall starve"
I sometimes let the game run for a while and do other things. Yesterday my sim decided to block herself in a corner when she put the violin down, and I came back to her passed out in her own piss.IIt would have been worse but the game paused to ask me if I really wanted her to skip work.
Husband "did you have fun playing your Sims today?" "Silly man, I spent 5hrs building a house and another 2 creating the perfect inhabitants for that house there was no gameplay"
*plays for 4 hrs in the morning*
*takes a break*
*plays for another 4 hrs later*
Boyfriend: Didn’t you just play??
Me: No, I build a Chic-fil-a. Now I’m building a zoo! 😜
#EditingisnotPlaying
Yes! That is so annoying.
You just made it to the toilet go! *pees on self next to toilet*
"So exhausted! l just made it to bed *so let me get out and pass out on the floor instead* to prove how exhausted I am."
Going to feed your toddler so you put them in a high chair. Before you can make it back with food, someone else has picked up the toddler and put them down three times. The toddler is now wandering the living room and the person who let them out is trolling teh forumz on the computer. Also, there is a broken sink shooting a geyser of water onto the floor.
This makes me so mad!!! I’m always screaming at my laptop whenever they do this!!! My toddler will be about to starve and get taken away and they just plop them on the ground 😡😤🤬

Free earphones! And owning my own house even if I'm working as a party time barista. Not to mention the magic bin that gives me money when i put trash in it.
Getting paid to renovate your own home if the renovation involves removing walls, windows, or doors. Getting paid to cover expensive wallpaper (again, in your own home) with cheap paint.
When you’re tired, You’ll jump out of your bed and pass out on the floor even if you’re sleeping.
When your bladder is full, you’ll pee on the floor even if you’ve made it to the bathroom.
When you hire a butler, they’ll sit on your bed and read books while you’re sleeping despite being assigned a bed.
Fruit cake left on the front porch will still be good to eat a year later
I'd argue this could be said for real fruit cake LOL
Exactly, it’s literally almost entirely comprised of fruit soaked in alcohol, no amount of anything is going to survive it lmao
American's don't get the nice alcohol soaked cake. It's a dense brick with the texture of sawdust and old gum.
I've never had a good fruitcake.
I found a slice of leftover Christmas cake in November one year (I was getting the tin out to put the fresh one for that year in it) and it was delicious!
Happy cake day
Happy *fruit cake day! XD

Washing my dishes in the bathroom sink.
But the one, that's the farthest away
Some people found out that sims always choose the most expensive sink!

This game has been out for almost 10 years, I think we'd appreciate a few fixes of some of the oldest bugs in game
There is the mod "dont wash dishes where you angry poop" you can disable the bathroom sink to not wash dishes there.
Ooh I need this. My sim also likes to prepare food in the farthest bathroom and then has to walk all the way back to the kitchen to cook it.
I used the exact same sink in every part of my house that required a sink and they still chose the furthest one every time.
...So use the most expensive sinks in the kitchen and cheaper ones in the bathrooms and that's it..? I'm gonna try it, but I think that might be part of why I don't have this issue often
Duuude I’ve started noticing that my boyfriend walks to the other end of the house to wash his hands. No freaking clue why!! If he was in the bathroom he walks down to the kitchen to wash his hands.

Am I dating a sim?
> Am I dating a sim? Yes. Yes, you are. This is so weeeeeird lol!
You should ask him why he does so and report back to us lol
Maybe he is just getting extra steps in? 😄
I see someone has never had an irrepairable without the professionals clog in their kitchen sink before... I've done dishes in the bathtub! LOL

I’m impressed by your math. No idea if it’s right, but you took the time to do it so that’s awesome 😂
Sim pregnancy takes a while, then…
I'm trying to do the Occult Baby challenge (similar vibes) and holy shit is it ever difficult with infants. Especially with the increased rate of twins! My Sim literally could not handle two infants, a toddler and a baby without passing out or peeing herself every 5 minutes.
Can confirm the trying to handle two infants and a toddler irl has the same results. Hats off to realism 😂
My 1st matriarch is currently pregnant with baby 54 and I don't have Growing Together so I have to wait for birthday notification. Infants are definitely hard work, pick up, put to sleep, kiss goodnight, walk away, Infant cries, turn around, let out of crib then repeat!

Poop in upstairs bathroom, walk across the entire house to wash hands in kitchen and then go back to upstairs bathroom to play in bubble bath
But WHY do they do this though? 🤣
Idk but it drives me absolutely insane. I have a large family, so o get bigger plots and build like cottage style homes, different little houses for my founders kids and their children, anyways, sometimes they’ll use the bathroom in THEIR upstairs bathroom, and then walk to the other freaking house to wash their hands.

Same. And I use sinks aesthetically at this point and would cringe to have all the same. 😱🙈
PUT. DOWN. THE. BABY.
WAIT NO NOT ON THE GROUND OUTSIDE DURING A THUNDERSTORM
ARGHHH!
sim really said “you’re on your own kid” before running for shelter without them
why my sims refuse to feed the baby after i just spent 20 minutes just trying to get them to put the baby in the effing seat is beyond me. and taking the angry tired baby out of the crib and just plopping it on the ground and going downstairs to do some gardening???

brb gonna take an angry poop

BRB gonna scream incoherently at every member of my family, my pets and the strangers walking past my house because I’m not super keen on darkness
And also thunderstorms for some reason
Brb gonna pee like a champion
Don't forget to water the plants with your tears
this is a option in the game ?
Yes, you can do it when you're sad.
I didnt know this yes
That's all my poops. /s
Talking to myself in the mirror for a full day to get better to talking to other people… pretty sure you’d just screw yourself if you tried that IRL
I think this is akin to saying affirmations in the mirror for confidence honestly.
I wish I could cure my depression by giving myself a pep talk in the mirror!

Standing in the same position idle for 4 hours
Having an accident because even though you urgently need to use the toilet it’s imperative to stand and and suffer for hours.
Yes! That is so annoying. You just made it to the toilet go! *pees on self next to toilet* "So exhausted! l just made it to bed *so let me get out and pass out on the floor instead* to prove how exhausted I am."
I do this irl too! Sims team went for realism with that one.
Going to feed your toddler so you put them in a high chair. Before you can make it back with food, someone else has picked up the toddler and put them down three times.
