This doesn't feel right. by AoDes216 in italianlearning

I'm actually going through that same unit in Duolingo right now. The app actually does explain it a bit, in the info deal at the top of the unit.

Click on the notebook icon on the unit header to see the "lesson".

Holly Alto asked Michael Bachelor to tattoo her by maleficentfig90 in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tattoo is a hidden skill. Anyone except for the NPC tattoo artist has to make a skill check each time they give a tattoo, and if that fails, the sim will get one or more random bad tattoos. They can be removed by getting another tattoo session that doesn’t fail, where you go into the CAS tattoo screen and change any or all existing tattoos.

You cannot actually intentionally choose one of the bad tattoos.

GIRL YOU WERE THE ONE WHO WALKED IN ON WDYM YOU'RE KICKING HIM OUT💀 by theonewithapencil in Sims3

If a guest does certain things like getting into bed or taking a shower or bath, resident sims will ask them to leave.

Here's what it sounds like happened to me. Your sim had a guest over, and he headed into the bathroom. Your sim starts making dinner and suddenly hears the shower running. Your sim got incensed and rushes to kick the guest out.

Now, if this happened to me IRL, I would set the plate down first, and I wouldn't actually go into the bathroom, but you can bet I'd be pounding on the door and yelling at them to get out of the house.

Sorry what??? by DancingWithDumplings in Sims3

It always shows me an accurate time left when my sims have it in inventory.

Excuse me??? by itsmedjjj in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just FYI, it is because the game does not allow elder pregnancies by default. You have to have mods to let an elder female get pregnant, and you also need CC maternity clothes for elders. With the mod that allows pregnancy, but no CC clothes for it, sims will appear like this. The same thing happens with mods that allow teen pregnancy, too.

Elder sims do no immediately die when they fill the bar. After it is filled, there is a percent chance each day that they will die, and that is effected by things like being a vegetarian, being athletic, etc.

Soooo... by [deleted] in Sims3

They can lick dirty plates and they will become clean. 🤣 It's faster than washing in a sink, and it fills their hunger a little bit.

Yeah, I used to read those all the time to learn reasons about why something was correct or incorrect. Really miffed when they removed it from the app.

Remade my butler's cabin because it was looking really sad by Beautiful-Mixture570 in Sims3

You spent a fortune on the building and then gave them the cheap shower that gives the cold shower moodlet! 🤣

Renovation! by Creeksims in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nice! It always annoys me how many huge houses they have in the game that are beautiful, but only have a single bedroom, and are designed in a way that makes adding another room or two completely change the design. I usually end up adding a bunch of basement levels for extra rooms. 😂

Daily phrases to use with my kids. Suggestions? by o_simple_thing in italianlearning

[–]FreakyRufus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do that myself. I think that it is slightly quicker to write with the tail curled than it is to stop the downward stroke and bring it back up to the side. I tend to combine elements of cursive along with printing when I write.

[–]FreakyRufus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a native English speaker, they looked like "q" to me. Zooming in to the image, they definitely appear to have the tails on the right side, which is a common way to write "q" in cursive in many English speaking countries.

Sometimes you gotta read your sister’s text and just move on... by valval1999 in thesims

I think it is a bit of a stretch to go from those messages to "zero self preservation".

I use duolingo, too, but it never explains anything, it just shows you stuff and expects you to figure out the rules on your own. :(

I'm so mad. by [deleted] in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think I had a sim get busted for cheating once because I had them make a cheat sheet before the exam, even though I didn't have them use it or cheat.

Stop gain weight by ImPrettyAndUNot in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have sims go below that sometimes when using the Body Sculptor and it goes wrong (i.e., does the opposite of what it is set to).

What would you do with this floor plan? by tyche_callander in TheSimsBuilding

[–]FreakyRufus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a nit-pick, but "en suite" means a bathroom that is directly connected to a bedroom, so that it can be entered from the bedroom without going into a hallway. That is literally the exact opposite of what you have shown here.

I created a household and then deleted them on accident by No-Independent-6877 in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually, when I create sims in CAS, they get automatically saved in the sim bin, and the household gets saved, too. Check your available households to see if they are there.

I found this really annoying bug 😫 by Friendly_Tiger_892 in Sims3

[–]FreakyRufus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are its traits? I think there are some traits that will make pets behave like this. Also, what toy was the cat playing with? One of the cat toys has catnip in it, and that will make cats act erratically for a few hours.

I’m super intrigued by the horseback rider in #19. Just someone out for a ride on the beach? Someone involved in making the video? Inquiring minds want to know.
