Multitasking... a little too much?
I considered mentioning this as a bug, but I think it's more just feedback on some of the odder results of the current handling of multi-tasking. I think, sometimes, some further checks should be pu...

I always hate it when I tell my sim to jog after eating. They just decide to do it simultaneously.
@Heddelviven I think it's worse after Horse Ranch or the patch before it's release. My Sim now gets up halfway through eating and takes her food to the horse if she gets the "listen to..." interaction. Then they end up standing in the stable or sitting in the vicinity and finishing their meal. It's now so you can't queue anything while eating or they'll take the food with them.
@simsplayer818 - They've been doing the same with books. I queue up for them to turn on the AC or pick up a rubbish pile or some such, and they keep the "Read..." command active and carry the book with them instead of waiting until they're done reading.
- @iamsweetmystery Yeah I've got that too. I got my Sim to read in the sunshine near her horse while he was playing. She was sitting on the little log seat from Werewolves reading up on Horse Riding skill and she kept getting up autonomously when the horse added an interaction to her queue. So she'd have the book in one hand and be dealing with the horse too.
@simsplayer818 - The other day, the multitask went a tad haywire. My Sim grabbed a Skill book and started reading it standing, even though there was a chair right beside her. I clicked for her to sit in the chair and she put the book away and sat. I had her grab the book again. Read standing again, but this time sat with the book when I told her to sit. Weird inconsistency. Usually they automatically sit in the nearest chair to read.
