Why are you getting out of bed every 2 seconds when you are dead tired?
You left the TV on, but the TV is not in your bedroom?
(Put walls up)
Why is there a gap in the wall? Who built this house?

When Jamar grew up to a toddler:
"Oh, you're blond like your mother and your paternal great-grand mother."
His father a black hair and I don't use a genetic related mod. I feel like my hood is full of blond-haired sims.
When trying to find a hairstyle for him:
"I need more hairs!".

Okay, so I decided to post some more of the things I say while playing The Sims 2. The more graphic things I say have been omitted, since I doubt it's acceptable to post that stuff.

So last night I was playing in a custom hood simply called 'Hood Corruption:' its purpose is self explanatory. I was playing the Oldie household, which just consisted of a younger version of Group Uno from Crystal Pleasantview (Tiffany, Tank, Johnny, Ophelia, Ripp, Zidane, Skipp, Cream the cat, and Cymmi the cat. I've talked about the humans in the What's Happening in Your Game Now thread in the past). Here are some quotes from last night, I guess:

"Are you kidding me? How'd you get the flu?! Go to your room, you're under quarantine." - When a fellow student from school gave Zidane the flu.

"You're healthy? That was quick." - When Zidane got better after, like, twelve hours.

"Who infected Johnny?!" - When Johnny got ill the next day. Culprit? Another friend from school.

"He's healthy, thank you!" - When Johnny got healthy after a little under twelve hours.

"You're ill again?! Your immune system must suck." - When Zidane came down with the flu, yet again, the next day. Twice in a week.

"Ripp, why are you playing on the fridge? Tank's trying to cook dinner." - Self explanatory what happened here

"Skipp, stop slapping Tank!" - Again, self explanatory.

"Zidane, get back on the bed! I swear you want to die!", "Later on you're going to be wondering why you're dead!", "What are you doing?! Is checking yourself out in the mirror suddenly going to cure you of the flu? No, didn't think so!", and "Stop looking at the poster! Go. To. Bed!" - The struggles of having an ill sim who refuses bed rest

"Tank leave Ripp alone!"

"No, Ripp is not available, he's at work."

"You're not going to do it in Ripp's bed, get over it!" - Tiffany and Skipp kept trying to woohoo in Ripp's bed.

"Finally, he's healthy again!" - When Zidane got better after two days.

"Well... at least someone's using the hot tub..." - I bought a hot tub so Skipp and Tiffany would stop complaining about not being able to use Ripp's bed. They never used it, so I bought them a double bed. At least Johnny and Zidane made use of the hot tub, so it wasn't a waste of simoleons.

"Skipp, why are you sleeping with Ophelia?! I thought you were all gaga for Tiffany! I guess not..." - This event caught me off guard.

"You're furious... with yourself...? Why?" - When I discovered that Ripp was furious with himself. I still don't know why.

As for the miscellaneous, non-character, things uttered:

"I guess the burglar taking the TV was a blessing in disguise."

"Wait... it's you who's got the flu! Go home!"

"I could just have someone make a bunch of Mac & Cheese in bulk and then store them as leftovers..."

"Zits... great..."

"I wonder, if I let a sim die of the flu, would they come back cured if they were saved?"

Yeah... I do talk to myself that much when playing. I said a bunch of other things, but they haven't come to me yet. It's fun thinking back, though Long post, but it's just that I mumble to myself a lot while playing...

simmer22 5th Nov 2020 1:38 AM

Game loads in a few minutes (with minimal CC), new neighborhood loads in a few minutes, decorating a lot works fine, I'd just made a family of 8 ready to move in, and just when I'd clicked to save the family... CRASH! All progress lost in CAS. ( <-- actual reaction for about 2 seconds)

Won't put it in words, but my internal monologue is swearing quite a bit right now... I mean, WHY????? For once, just once, can't this game just work for more than an hour or two without crashing or pink-flashing or any of the sort? This is getting ridicolous!

At least I'd saved the lot, and the sims were saved as Bodyshop files, so there's that... I'll try again tomorrow, I guess. So much work for a few pictures...

(I don't talk much out loud to the screen, but I do mumble, and there's a lot of internal molologue going on. I don't tend to remember most of the "conversation" though...)

Eli and Ami,Why aren't you putting things away on your lot now?It was getting towards late fall and they must've been lulled by the summerlike weather in mid fall.
Jay and Tracy Hobbs,You're just being silly and refusing to pack things away on your lot whenit's late fall already and winter's about to arrive.

"Yay! They can have curtains!"
Stella got a chance card bonus. The Newson-Terranos went from having to upgrade cautiously a little at a time in order to maintain the $3K they need in order to be considered viable adoption candidates and also have a house suitable to add a new child to (never mind that all the Newsons grew up in it when it was much, much nastier) to having room to splurge. I had just been worrying about when curtains would fit into the renovation, and then suddenly I could do it.

TadOlson 12th Nov 2020 7:05 AM

@Phantomknight -That's exactly why I never put stoves in home without firesprinkers above them and without every sim who's teen or above having at least three sooking skill points before the stove goes in as they can cook sandwiches and cereal if they don't have any cooking skill.Have a kitchen without a stove until they all learn to cook without one and gain enough skill.
I made those mistakes more than ten years ago when I was still new at the game and learned my lesson from losing sims and having to exit without saving.

Eli put those leftovers away instead of leaving them to get cleaned up and wasted.
Tracy you can't afford to throw good food away so put the leftovers in the fridge and make sure you get them used up.

CrystalFlame360 12th Nov 2020 4:17 PM

Sim comes home with a cold:

"Alright, go to bed."

Begins checking on other sims who are ill, then returns to the other one to see them about to engage in ACR activity. I cancel the action:

"No! You're sick! Is getting lucky going to heal you? I don't think so!"

Sim begins dying from a cold right after I cancelled the action:

"See! This is why you listen to me!"

"Will you just eat????"

Yeah, she's finicky, but - She's been trained to eat dog food. She has the best available bowl. I can't get a "clean" option. She's been "called to eat" twice and not done it. What is wrong with this dog?

I wish cleaning was as easy in real life as it is in the sims. Just stir the toilet water with the toilet brush for a bit, and magically the whole toilet gets sparkly clean. That would be nice.

True! It would be very unpleasant for strange slimes and spills to appear out of nowhere.

It is, of course, green and slimy because it is fungi, growing because of the water in the bathroom without windows

In my game so dirty can get only toilet where pregnant sim puked several times. So I am assuming this green and slimy is all what came out from stomach covered over the toilet.

simsample 29th Nov 2020 2:25 PM

Yeah, but do they puke on the cistern- why is that dirty? And how does Kaylynn get the cistern clean just by pulling a brush out of her butt and cleaning the bowl? It's magic, I tell you!

CrystalFlame360 29th Nov 2020 5:21 PM

Maybe the toilet brush is really a magic wand. The witches better run.

I have four teen boys who share a bathroom and are responsible for maintaining it. This is NOT a mystery to me. What is a mystery is why my boys put up with it until I point it out.

I caught her trying to take a bath in their outdoor bathtub before I could get it packed away for the season as it was nearing winter and they forgot to pack somethings away.

Recently in my hood, Dina Goth passed away of disease and the Grim Reaper sat down to watch the TV for 24hrs. While this was happening, I was met with this:

Maid: All set - I'll be back first thing tomorrow!
Me: No you won't, she's dead.

Gardener: Your plants are in perfect condition!
Me: Thanks...I guess...

Game: Johnny Smith is no longer a family friend, you should talk to him more.
Me: I'm so sorry that she can't talk to you from beyond the grave! She's dead! Get a ouija board or something!

Burglar: Sneaks into view with music.
Me: Come on, give her a break! She's dead!

"I'm sick of your s**t, Gavin!"
Gavin Newson is either a total idiot or really doesn't trust Ginger. Two days in a row he refused to go to school because he "can't leave the little ones home alone" even though Ginger was RIGHT THERE. I hate that mechanic so much.
Though maybe he was right to distrust Ginger. She threw out Garrett's birthday cake before the poor kid had finished growing up all the way.

BlueAlien 11th Dec 2020 3:43 AM

"Oh, stop blubbing! You didn't want the job anyway!"

Leah Bates kept rolling the want to stay home from work. Guess what happened the third time she did that? But Leah, apparently, didn't see it coming. She leapt up and burst into tears, then spent the next several hours dropping whatever she was supposed to be doing to blubber noisily because she couldn't believe those nasty people would actually FIRE her from the job she never once showed up to. They were supposed to pay her to just stay home and play on the couch, right?

StrangeTownChick: It really annoys me, too, when the game decides Gavin is the one who should stay home with the toddlers. They made him Fortune and Ginger Family; it stands to reason she should do the parenting while he maintains his grades so he can hold down an evening job. I didn't have a problem with them in my most recent hood, though. I don't know if the game just happened to pick Ginger that time, or if it was because I had her set to Simlogical Flexischool and him to Private School.

I'm thinking does Gavin have a higher NID than Ginger? If so, that could be how the game determines who stays home to look after the kids. Logically though, I would have Ginger stay home while Gavin attends school, as the latter is more finance driven and ambitious, whereas the former is more family-orientated. When the school bus shows up, just cancel Ginger's 'Go to School' action and make Gavin be the teen to go; that's how I'd do it.

As for what I've said while playing the game, lately it's been a lot of "Stop kicking my bin over! It's getting old!"

I don't know why, but my sims are getting a bunch of random people pinch their newspaper and kick the bin over. Beau had his younger brother Skipp, who he is BFFs with, pinch his newspaper; keep in mind, Skipp has 7 nice points, so he's far from nasty and he isn't angry with Beau at all. Jennifer Burb had Ophelia kick her bin over, when she doesn't even know Ophelia at all, and Ophelia is more on the nice side of the personality scale. All I can say is...

"Why are you doing this?! What did I do to deserve this?!"

It doesn't work. You have to wait until the bus has gone, then tell Gavin to walk to school. The game does sometimes pick Ginger to stay home, though, even without Flexischool, so I don't think it's the NID that determines it.

If your lot has room, build a small fenced enclosure, place the bin inside it, and lock the gate to allow "Household only". Brandi Broke's house comes with an area like that - I always take the flowering shrubs out and put the bin in there. This is a real sanity saver.

Annaminna 12th Dec 2020 5:58 AM

Teenagers and mean sims need to let their steam out somewhere. I did install neder's mod don'tMessWithMyTrash after one teenager started constantly kick over his own trashcan due to bad mood. Stealing newspaper is much less harmful and even helps to get rid of newspaper pile.

I always put my locked bin enclosure right at the back of the lot. Then watch the mean sims as they spend a few minutes diabolically giggling to themselves, then several sim hours gleefully creeping up on the bin, and then that final sigh and shoulder slump of defeat when they realise they can't get to the bin. Then I laugh as they take another few sim hours to walk all the way back to the lot portal! If you put a hedge maze or other obstacles in the way, even more fun! :D

Weird. Because I have a faint memory of Ginger staying home while Gavin went to school and held down a part time job. When the school bus showed up, I just cancelled Ginger's 'Go to School' action and directed Gavin to get the bus. Unless the game does something where even if Ginger is home Gavin thinks no one is home, I have no idea. I might have to check the household in one of my other hoods to check this out. Seems odd, but interesting.

The NID thing was just me throwing in a possible cause, if that's not it, then that's a theory dead.

Thanks for the idea, I'll keep this in mind!

The word "mod conflict" leaps to mind, simply because this is so weird and weird usually means mod conflict. I've played the Newsons several times and sometimes the game tripped me up on which one stayed home on a particular day, but I've been able both to alternate and to keep Ginger home. I've sometimes had to finesse my timing in cases of caretaker conflict, but this is extreme. You could experiment with other sims who are supposed to leave about the same time - put two parents in the same job so that they leave at the same time and see if you can get more parameters but if it's a mod conflict then the old 50/50 is probably faster.

The simplest solution, of course, is to hire a nanny. The Newsons have plenty of money to bear the expense for the four days of toddlerhood if you do a careful build for them, or rent them a suitable apartment. By which I do not mean a Maxis one! My own Manufactured Homes were designed with the Newsons and Ottomai in mind and I'm sure a little poking around will turn up many others that would work for them.

StrangeTownChick 12th Dec 2020 10:08 PM

Well, whoever may have that problem in the future can work it out that way. My Garrett and Georgia are kids now, and though Gavin now has an F in school, he's got plenty of time to make it up before college.

Strange tendency what ACR has is to send my sims woohoo an hour before carpool comes.
"And now you are going to sleep for 5 minutes?"

If it's a mod, it's InTeen, but I'm pretty sure it was the same in pure vanilla. And nannies are banned in all my hoods for being a useless waste of space - I used to murder them with great regularity, so now I ban them for their own protection.

I have occasionally put the Newsons with the Goodies, but Flexischool for Ginger seems to have worked this time around.

"That's hilarious and a little... disturbing!"

I said that to myself when I was playing one of my mini-megahoods and Dina Ross got invited on an outing from Marty Anderson. The "disturbing" part is that the previous day, Dina had met Daniel Pleasant and they, literally, had spent all the day together (you can imagine how )! Marty Anderson works in the Athletic career too and he is Daniel's BFF, "bro", whatever! So when Dina got the call and Marty said "after the great time my friend Daniel had with you last night..." I felt a little weird! Of cource, Dina Ross is no saint so she had no problem at all to meet Marty and his other friends. At least it's the Sims, if this happened IRL, things would have gotten a different meaning...

"Who do you expect to pay you for that?" I ask Nathan Gavigan as he plops down a tip jar and starts playing the piano in his rec room, at two in the morning, while his entire family sleeps.

AndrewGloria 29th Dec 2020 12:34 AM

I said to Julian, "Why don't you get into bed with Andrew?"

He must have been listening, because that's exactly what he did. He walked across the living room, went into the master bedroom where he took his clothes off (well, what little he was wearing!) and climbed into the big comfortable bed beside Andrew. Minutes later they were snuggled up together with the light out.

Trouble was they weren't at home, and it wasn't their bed! It was Christmas Day, and the Jeffreys family had invited Julian for the day. Julian in turn invited Andrew (now his husband) to come and join them and roast the turkey for the Christmas Dinner. It was quite late before they ate, as the family weren't really hungry, but late in the afternoon, Andrew did his stuff and made a delicious meal for them. I suppose Andrew felt that he'd earned a rest, and he didn't fancy the long journey home -- at least not yet. . . . And Peter and Jemma's marital bed seemed very inviting. So, some time between 10 and 11, he slipped away from the festivities, and climbed into that bed, and was soon fast asleep. And then, soon after eleven, with only a little verbal encouragement from me, Julian went and joined him. Both were of course completely autonomous. (I have a "Sleep on Community Lots" mod which has the side effect of letting your visitors go to sleep in your bed instead of going home.)

What am I to do with these boys? And what are Peter and Jemma to do? Sleep on the sofas? It's not easy to shoo the boy who cooked your Christmas Dinner out of bed.

Frat bro sim: *as he waits for the grocery delivery, picks up a piece of pizza that had been left out*

Me: "NO. Put that down, it has flies on it, you grossf***."

"We're on an island and I can't do a damn beach lot."
Why are there so few and why do they fit nowhere.

Because it's really hard to get the angle of the shore right in combination with a close enough street in Sim City 4.

"Oh wow, you are fun at parties!"

William Zimmermann (né Williamson) returned from work during a birthday party for his toddler twins. In the special event sequence where his daughter grew up to a child, he walked in and took away the cake to throw it away.

Ginger Newson did that to Garrett's cake! Everyone had to eat from Georgia's.

"Stop bringing David Ottomas home! Do you want to die?!"

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the David Ottomas as a sim; he's a sweet boy with interesting features. However, in Plague Town he has the flu, so if he stays for too long... people get sick. Why not cure him? I like to play on the edge...

My past games Eli and Ami you guy have to stop trying to sneak snacks while starving and cook proper meals instead.I downloaded a no autonomous fridge patch and installed it so they can't do that anymore and must be directted to get food which means they make better choices with mealtimes now.

"Yes - go and look at insects, you crazy bastard."

"...That's kinda hot."

"No! I was gonna attack you!"

Often when I'm playing I'll start sounding like a WUM parody. "Don't fall asleep when it is half past five! Oh no, you're never gonna sleep tonight!"

"Still hungry. I guess make spaghetti now, just try not to burn that too...."

If Pascal's still hungry even after this he's getting a bag of chips.

TadOlson 15th Feb 2021 8:12 PM

@CASnarl -That sim should start with making cereal or sandwiches and I'd start wi adding breakfast at midnight from this site to my game to fix that issue with mealtimes and also take the stove out of the house and force the sim to only prepare meals that just need a counter and have no stove requirement.I found tons of custom foods of that type here that don't require any cooking skill or a stove to use.
I don't even put stoves into starter homes though fridges and counters are in the home because starter sims ususally have no cooking skill and can only make cereal or sandwiches.

Yeah, but that would be making it too easy and taking away any consequences. I don't mind them having a fire. My sims have to suffer from time to time

TadOlson 15th Feb 2021 8:32 PM

@CASnarl -It dosen't make things too easy for them because mine have the challenge of having to work on cooking skill with simple meals and can finally own a stove when they get three cooking skill points and own a fire sprinkler over the stove though that rule might not apply to townies.I added a Mod for meal preparations and tons of custom foods to allow my sims to be able to eat all meals including dinner because without those fixes they'd onle eat breakfast and lunch and go without and have to go to bed hungry because they got no dinner because they couldn't fix anything until they had more skills.
My sims don't have it too easy because babies can be stillborn and sometimes die in infancy or a sim can have a miscarriage either by accident or because they spiked their coffee or hot chococlate with something to induse contractions and cause a birth or miscarraige.

bubble101 17th Feb 2021 11:05 PM

I have it the other way, babies/pregnant Sims are pretty much the only ones safe in my game because I can't bear it when they lose them! So it occasionally happens with my poverty Sims or those with a lot of kids but I try to avoid it if possible. And even though I am very much pro-choice in real life none of my Sims have abortions because I just love babies and Sim genetics/generations.

Kitchen fires though, absolutely no precautions at all! They usually survive unless it's a big house and I'm elsewhere, I catch it and get them to extinguish it in time - but I don't have sprinklers because I have never seen them in an actual real life house, and I don't have fire alarms because I find it unrealistic for the fire department to just rock up instantly with no-one calling them.
Occasionally though if I have a really rich family or a state institution like a children's home I might allow an alarm.

Things I have said whilst trying to make default replacements for the Sims 2 hat hairs (adding non-hat versions to hat hairs for other clothing categories):
1. "Well ok, that hat hair mesh doesn't have a non-hat hair version, never mind, I'll just spend a few minutes finding a similar, suitable hair that's a good match."

(After 6 days of spending hours each evening googling, searching the hair gallery, searching simblrs, searching hair creator's websites etc.)

2. "Well maybe some people's hair does magically get straightened and 6 inches longer when they take their hat off...."

3. "...hmm...I suppose you could wear a hat with underwear...and whilst doing exercise....and sleeping....and swimmi...............sigh"

"Where are my kids? She took my kids! I didn't even get the popup that they were too cold until right before she appeared! She took my kids!"

"Rhett Hart, you don't have any reason to take or need for that paper, you get on just fine with all the Manns!"

"Val Hart, you're a good daddy dropping by when your little girl had triplets and aspiration failure: mind having a word with that boy of yours about his silly paper-stealing ways?"

(Playing a new Widespot. Poor Candy!)

"Go and say hi to -- oh, you're dying?"

Also, somewhat related, I tried out The Sims 2 Pets for Gameboy Advance, in which conversations are kind of a minigame where you steer topics and can also do other stuff like play rock paper scissors and juggle. "No I didn't mean to juggle!!" is a sentence I never thought I'd have the need to express, especially not in a half-panicked manner.

"You have played computer game whole day. Go to bed now."

I cannot blame my sims for this...

CrystalFlame360 25th Feb 2021 1:56 AM

This recent session, I kept finding myself saying, "That's not your bed, get out!"

Keep in my mind, I have SmartBeds... for the most part it works, but if sims get really tired and send themselves to bed, they end up in a bed that isn't theirs.

Eli Jankowsky "I think I'll have to slip some of that herbal morning after extract into my coffee this morning to end that unplanned pregnancy""We're not quite ready for a baby yet as we're still saving up and still need to get our main house built on the homestead."After the woohoo and failed birth control caused an unplanned pregnacy.I love them having babies though I don't like seeing everybody getting caught unprepared.I allow the pregnancy if it's meant to be part of the story and end it if that was the story.It's usual for an unplanned pregnancy to go ahead of the husband dies shortly after she became pregnant as she'd want the baby then and would make other changes to her life like moving into a subidied apartment lot or rezoning the home as a farm.

"James, you're a grown man. Please don't make me send you to your room like a child." James pokes Andrea Hogan again. "That's it! Adult or not, you're grounded. Get to your room and stay there."

James shares a cabin with six other single men. As long as he and Andrea are fighting, none of the other six has any chance of establishing a more positive relationship with her.

Making a potholder: "I'll make it black because I'm sad."
And later: "I'll make it red because I'm angry."
At least Buddha Neighbour eventually was at peace and made a green one, too.

Eli and Ami Jankowsk after arrival in Pleasant Valley in the spring of 1600:"It was an awully long voyage on that wooden sailing ship"Ami-"I'm glad we didn't hit that iceburg before arrving because it would've broken the ship up."
Arriving at the homestead lot: "We've got our work cut out with having to get our home built before fall and the service center needs a building up as well.

I appreciate Sleep in your own bed mod . I haven't got into that situation after adding that mod.

Thank you the amount of times I say "That isn't your bed!"

Me last night while playing an extremely early backup of one of my hoods:

"Don't kiss him, don't kiss him, don't kiss him..."

Sim: *attempts to have their first kiss with an unwilling participant again just to get rejected... again*

"See! What have I told you?! No means no!"

Sim: *tries again just to get rejected*

"Oh my...! You're going to mess your friendship up!"

Sim: *goes to the toilet*

"Good. The more distance between you, the better.

Sim: *begins crying due to rejection*

"Oh, stop it! You know he has a love interest now, you should have gotten him while you could... and stopped after the first rejection."

Sim: *instead has their first kiss with their crushes love interest*

"You!"

"Put the baby back" (in the crib)

"You're a creep" (random townie just holding a baby, alone in said babies room for who knows how long. Just standing there...)
