Things you wish your Sims didn't do
I come across this one thing so very often it made me wonder what your Sims do that really grinds your gears? What I'm talking about here is when your Sim is eating, another Sim wants to go hug it....

Ouff, where do I even start...
... Taking a nap instead of properly going to bed in the middle of the night.
... Feeling the need to check on the toddler all the time.
... Drinking water from the tap. Seriously, does that even have any benefit at all?
... Their obsession with computers.
... Changing from sad to happy because of a picture on the wall. I have a mod to disable that, hopefully the patch didn't break it.
... Randomly acting like they can't go somewhere when there's nothing and nobody in the way, or taking the longest and most complicated route to get there for no reason.
... Guests cleaning your house. As much as I'd love that in real life, it should be exclusive to sims with the Neat trait, or else why even hire a maid that costs money when you can just invite some neighbours over?
... Flirting with the son-in-law in front of the daughter. Look, if you have to be a frigging succubus preying on cheating husbands half your age, can't you at least be a little more subtle about it?
... Dawdling - OH MY GOD, the dawdling! Vampire comes home from work in the afternoon, I tell him to teleport inside the house right away, but no, he still has a rather lengthy idle animation to finish before he can try to get away from the sun, because, you know, it's only burning his flesh off, what could possibly happen? When you give your sim an order, it should immediately cancel all idle animations.
... Ordering drinks and snacks. Especially annoying when you have a doctor who is supposed to treat a patient, but decides to get a snack from the fridge, and you have to pay for it the moment they think of it, rather than when they're actually getting it. No refund if you cancel the action, either. One time it made me so angry that I let the doctor in question starve to death as punishment.
There's probably more... There's always more! But those are some of the silliest things my sims do without my permission.
