Things that annoy you in the Sims

I believe you can delete them with moveObjects on.

You may have just changed my life.  haha!

-Story Progression. Need I say more?
-When after three generations, almost everybody on the neighborhood looks exactly alike. The only difference between them is their hair and eye color. 
-The university mascot. It annoys me when camera pans over to the mascot especially when I'm busy doing something important.

That's why I usually moved in guys with good genetics and make them a player and try for baby with the female population.
Not an easy task, and kinda tiring, but it's the best solution for the moment since the story progression is no use at all.

I was throwing a birthday party for my youngest Sim (Elise) and her grandma (Cara) proceeded to die in the middle of it. Another Sim really needed to go to the bathroom, so I was going to have him do that after the party, but then he started mourning her and wet his pants. It was funny but everyone got mad at him…. XD So they were all grieving and yelling at this guy. I had to mute the sound.

Wow, Cara, that's hilarious and disturbing! What is it about sims and birthday parties? What should be occasions of joy often instead become instruments of disaster. I've had my share of birthday trauma (or rather my sims have) but that must have been extraordinary.

It was quite the thing. They almost starved since I couldn't get them to eat the cake after she died.

That is so funny Cara! Its quite often annoying at the time but reading about someone else's sim's trauma is hilarious. 

I had a sim that would just constantly eat anything and everything that was in his inventory. It drove me mad, to the point where I wanted to just slap him  He was a self employed gardener and one day he ate over 40 red berry coffee beans while I was busy skilling nooboos etc.

Did he have the insane trait? They'll do that.

Trying to build stairs at the front of the house. I just recently started building things, and I had to pretty much rip apart the front of a house because the stupid stairs were so glitchy. I tried to build a little hill going up to the door, thinking this would help me, but no, they couldn't walk there. agghhhhh

I've been watching some YouTube building tutorials - it's really helpful.  I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post a link or reference it, but with a search you should find some good stuff.

I have several actions queued up and they are dropped randomly for reasons such as
- walking past the latest addition to the family, a ghost baby. This, I can sort of live with, although I also don't like how non-ghost siblings react all 'ewww'.
- having photo taken/being asked for autograph. Just, no, random stranger.
- walking to the outside wall of the place the sim is supposed to go then complaining 'can't reach'.
- having spell cast at you. This made me really angry, my sim was gardening, dropped everything and walked outside the fence. I checked, but the action could not be cancelled so the paparazzo outside fire blasted her, leaving her singed. This after many other 'be chatted to', 'listen to story' etc. by the same pap, which could thankfully be cancelled.
Still, precious time was wasted because I had to line up actions over and over again. Not cool.

That's why we shall just tick the celebrity system off at the first chance.

For me what annoying is when there is a roommate dying and all the rest of the house member keep on doing the grieving move anytime they have extra time between one action to another. It's fine for the first few time, but as the keep repeating it, it's get really really annoying and totally time consuming that I just rid it with the moodlet manager as soon as I get it.

I'm starting to seriously dislike the Absent-minded trait. I queued up a long list of actions for Skeet Bayless, including such essentials as eating, using the bathroom, etc. before going off to fish. Then I ignore him for a while, until I see his portrait is yellow. He's hungry and has to use the bathroom, never went fishing, and was busy playing with the dog.

I guess I have to babysit him a bit more closely then...grrrr.

Paparazzi. In my immortal dynasty, my third generation immortal was killed because her action to run from a meteor kept being cancelled due to a dang pap. She had her death flower and returned to life. The pap stayed dead and I deleted his tombstone. Grrr.

Okay, I'll look at those!
