What?? No way!! Another cute interaction which I've never seen? Rushing to download right now

I'm the one who discovered the interaction!

Beds are sooo disgusting! Generations being conceived on the same bed, and it never breaks. And don't get me started on fact that NO ONE EVER CHANGES the Sheets!!
Wish there was a mod to do that, and mop the floors too (that one should be easy)

I imagine that they change the sheets when they change the bed. XD Too often is better than never lol.

They do mop the floors though.

You can change the sheets whenever you want to (build mode) - that's what all the CC is for

Haha, good point.

I know some people like it for the realism and Sims 4 has the laundry and dust packs or kits or whatever, but I feel like too many cleaning tasks in game would just remind me of all the cleaning tasks I'm ignoring in my own house while playing Sims

I've seen the dust in Sims 4. I would have the most horrible house ever because I would have a million dust bunny pets. You can even feed them.

Fun fact: dust bunnies make you filthy rich (no pun intended).

Denise Jacquet deciding to singlehandedly clean up every plate in the restaurant (even when Sims were still eating off them), then just tossing them on the floor when the taxi arrives.

Also the gypsy matchmaker showing up on community lots and ringing the doorbell to the bathroom never gets old.

I do not know if this is deep in-game want chains firing off or coincidence but this was something I saw recently and went awww.

A little girl got a puppy. Her family had a party with the rest of their relatives.

Then, I noticed all the cousins and aunts and uncles had wants to also get a puppy shortly after when I went to play them.

I like the thought that they saw a relative or friend get something and then want it too.

A fortune sim, 10 neat points. She will miss work in order to clean the toilet first Bubbles follow her, sometimes to work and back, before they disappear.

Sims gaining science enthusiasm when spying on neighbours with a telescope. Reproductive biology, obviously.

Sims booing low-creativity Sims on instruments while still leaving tips.

Other Sims running into the room to have a pillow fight in the middle of a woohoo cinematic.

I have a lazy sim teen. No active points at all. When she was born, I considered changing that, but then - it could be interesting?

I adore her.
She is too lazy to watch TV. She turns the TV off and just lounges on the sofa

Yet she is so likable and has tons of friends - as long as she does not have to do anything, she is as happy as can be.

She is sloppy too, she may need to get a neat partner.

I think she may need a career where she only has to sit down and study when she grows up.

She needs to marry a rich sim and become a kept woman.

That's caused by bad conscience for booing them earlier. "Their playing is terrible just now, but maybe they'll learn to play better with a little financial encouragement."

But studying sounds like such hard work! Can she not just lie and daydream instead?

I like to headcanon "lazy" sims as disabled. Because a sim with low active points is not choosing to do nothing; their energy runs out after a very small amount of exertion. There's nothing they can do about that. When sims redline energy they can't do anything, and this is dangerous for them, as anyone who's ever had a sim stuck in that terrible must sleep/must eat loop can attest. A low-active, high-playful sim like Dixie Land wants to do fun things like dance but she can't do it very long at a time, and as a Fortune sim also wants things like promotions that require work, so she (and her player) have to learn how to pace her life for her to be happy. She probably will never be able to live alone and still get all her needs filled.

The sims I actually think of as lazy are sims with high active points who waste them, who refuse to roll wants to do useful things, or can't be trusted to finish the jobs the player gives them, and never starts productive activities on their own. Junior Mann - high active, high playful, low neat - often plays like this, and he can get away with it as long as he lives at home because his father has absurd amounts of money. With the help of the player he can accomplish great things and become his own Mann; left to himself he generally goes for another martini.

She rolls the want for a skill point once in a while I am not worried about her - everyone loves her, so she will be looked after well by all the sims in the hood (I will make sure they look after her ).

These things are literally why I love The Sims 2. No need to repeat the answers. The game is so simple compared to newer Sims games yet it has soul. Sims 3 sims are so stiff probably to be less laggy and save animations and Sims 4 sims have way too exaggerated animations even for Sims standards. I was so pleasantly surprised when Chappell Roan said that she was a Sims 2 simmer in the middle of her concert, but on the other hand, many late 90s babies say the same.

If Sims 2 was updated introduced smartphones and relaxing and using a phone she would be bedrotting on SimTok and Simblr

I always leave them with extreme personality points if they're born and base their entire personality around it. A boy was born recently and he had 9 for active, 10 for playful, 8 for nice and 0 for outgoing. He's such a ray of sunshine, but I can't imagine what kind of character he will be. Maybe an athlete who's very charming and kind but socially awkward? For some reason Messi comes to my mind.

Actually there is a mod that allows pixels to play on their phone without using it otherwise. I'm looking for it right now. It'd be the same thing as Instagram & TikTok for pixels.

Edit: Found it! https://earlypleasantview.tumblr.co...llphone-for-ts2

Thank you. I will consider this mod if I think she needs it. She seems happy to read, though. Perhaps she may write a novel

I hadn't looked for it but I did recently wonder if anyone had combined the MP3 player and video game functions onto just a cell phone since that's basically all one device now.
