Thought Bubbles..

Mine was the birthday cake yesterday. I had to double-check to make sure that I had aging off. Maybe they want it on.

It's two flies with one of those red slashed circles over them, and it's round like a speech bubble rather than the cloud shaped thought bubble. It's literally every time I interact with just my cat, and the worst part is that there's always a thought bubble right behind it so I don't even know what they're thinking or needing or wanting but the cat is being really needy and won't shut up. Lol I checked everything though, like I checked everywhere for something dirty, I checked my inventory, my plants, my hygiene was high, and he was clean. I don't see flies anywhere! Anyone know what might be going on?

Actually, scratch the cat issue. It's my sim. Every thought bubble is covered by the fly bubble. It's really annoying, I never realized how useful the bubbles were to understanding sims until now.

I have learnt this over playing as well, same with the pets - it's so telling, even though it's one image in a little bubble. I'm yet to work out what the aeroplane is/was (I have built a couple houses and remodelled one since I learnt new things but I will have a see tonight

It is a glitch they are looking into - the same thought bubble pops up on every sim for a while - the thought bubbles vary but many have had the pillow one.

Now I get the whole pillow thing!!! I do't pay much attention to thought bubbles but I noticed this one because of its frequency.

I think we rely on the thought bubbles more than we realize to understand what our sims are thinking - especially pets since we cannot see their needs - but they only became really obvious when every sim started having the same one constantly for a while and they made no sense! Then I saw that the odd thought bubbles were overlapping the real thoughts and realized it must be a glitch.

I do not own Cats & Dogs or Jungle Adventures and I'm getting this glitch too, only it's either the green alien head sticking out it's tongue or the 'talk to the hand' image overlapping thought bubbles. I first noticed it about a month ago in my Apocalypse challenge save, but now it's happening in a brand new save I started just last night. It's not consistent though, it comes and goes, usually when I log out and go back into the game it's gone but eventually comes back.

I do not use CC, no mods, totally vanilla game. It's more annoying than anything else, not a game breaker for me, but I still hope it's fixed soon. :/

Currently all of my sims wants to have bathtub so much. Hey that's not all, my pets wants to GO TO WORK, HAVE A JOB/CAREER!
Career Pets! Now that's a good idea!

Pets could have careers in the sims pets on console, therapy pets and firefighters etc

Okay, I'm trying to decipher the hand thought bubble. I've been getting that a lot recently and only since I've made a new character from other Sims when he's around. Even he thinks of the hand and I have no idea what it means. OMG and it's constantly the whole time he's around others not by himself smh

Just a theory but it could be a "go away/talk to the hand" kind of thing, especially if your sim's a loner. I think it shows sims are leaving as well since it always pops up for me when sims leave conversations, but from a story perspective I like to think that they had the worst conversation ever and they're trying to leave asap. lmao
