Oh yeah, I love that object! Too sad there's no autonomy for bored Sims.

Nitpicking and uninteresting, I know!



Today, I realized self-impregnation always yields a boy in case of mothers, and always girls in case of fathers.


Unless I'm mistaken, the offspring will always be a clone of the parent aswell!

So... octagonal rooms. I never understood them. I dragged and dragged and nothing happened. I always used to end up making a octagonal the manual way. Now... today, I actually checked the building tips... you hold and use + or - to change size... I never knew that. Well know I do.

Probably an old one, but I just discovered that the social bunny is the mascot(?) on the grocery stand apples.

That's exactly what I thought! I zoomed into the carrots to check, but nope. Bunnyless.

Apparently real bunnies do not eat carrots at all. We only associate them with carrots because of Bugs Bunny, whose carrot-eating sctick was apparently a reference to a famous comedian's act.

I fully agree with this statement.

What? Rabbits absolutely love carrots. It's not their everyday food, it's like candy. But it'd make total sense to put a bunny on a bag of carrots. Apples are good too, though

(My grandparents used to have rabbits)

I didn't know (or forgot) sims could reject the 'feed a bite' interaction.

Dag-Dag. That's goodbye in Simlish.

I found out today that you can invite more than one pixel to have a snowball fight.

Addition:

Using Picknmix's 'driveway skating' mod, and the invisible driveway add-on (with move objects on cheat), I just created a roller skating place for the pixels-sure, it's not medieval but the damn pixels would not take no for an answer when it came to roller skating!

I made the driveway invisible to lessen the impact of 'non-medieval' actions. If I don't look too hard, it's actually cute!

PS-you can do this in the modern game as well! I just had to test the idea because the normal Maxis driveways do not fit correctly in my game due to the configuration of the roads.

The "change mannequin skin" feature in Bodyshop. I've used Bodyshop since I knew it existed, and yet I've never realized this was a thing:

It can use custom skins, even! *dances around happily* You know how many times I've gone forth and back to check if something works with a particular skin (especially makeup) but then just resorted to trying it out on an extracted texture? If I'd only known...

I didn't know either. I always used to 'Import' half finished stuff so I could see what it looked like on proper skintones in 'Build Sims'. Then I had to delete it all. Now I'll only have to do that for the fat morph.

A group of my teenage Sims took me to Midnight Flows in downtown Veronaville last night. I don't think I've ever been there before! They were going to go to PaintBoyz, but there was nobody there except Mrs. Crumplebottom, and she's not exactly the life and soul of the party, is she? (Though she's still thinking of getting engaged -- I wonder who the [un]lucky man might be. Though, seeing this is Veronaville, I suppose it might be an [un]lucky woman.) So they changed their plans, and went to Midnight Flows instead.

And so, with the help of my Sims, I've discovered a new venue to go to. (Well -- it's new to me!!)

It has a nice karaoke machine. . .

. . . and some interesting lighting
spooky even. I really don't know how Maxis did this under-counter lighting, and I'm kind of impressed.

I presume this roped off area is for controlling the queues waiting to get in when it's really busy. It wasn't needed last night.

I find it remarkable that, after nearly 13 years of playing, there was still a Downtown venue that I didn't know. I attached Downtown to Veronaville about four months after starting to play.
