Do you/would you use whims?

.... the "as they are" is using Bienchen's Whim overhaul. Its livable, and not as repetitive as before (and no more "Buy a Bee Box"!!!). Whims are important to how I play my sims, not just for the points, but because I can pretend those things are what my sims really want. I'll do what I can to fulfill those wishes, except for boring ones like "Finish reading a book" or "Visit the library/museum/park" because those places are boring.
