Thought Bubbles and Their Meanings …

If this isn't placed under the correct forum, please feel free to move it.

I have a question, though, about the thought bubble images and what some of them are supposed to mean? For instance, it's quite common for my teen Sims to have a diaper in their thought bubbles. No, not all at the same time, although there are four teens in this household, ranging in age. Does it mean they recognize they're not babies anymore, or what do you think it could possibly mean? This just occurred again. The second eldest offspring in my Sim family just competed in the Karaoke Contest. He's trying to retain his Title, if you will. He has won it three times in succession. I have him work on his extra credit while he awaits the results. He gets the thought bubble with a diaper in it at this time. What could he be thinking?

What do you think it means?
  • Sometimes the thought bubbles are pretty easy to interpret. I've seen a stray cat yowling its lungs out, thought bubble showed a heart and two cats. Another stray wandered near it, and it chased after the second one. I was very amused by this, thinking "okay, well someone's feeling frisky tonight!" Maybe that's because the pets thoughts are food, frisky, more food, more frisky, litterbox, etc.
  • When you're getting to know a sim not in your household, their thought bubbles give clues to what their traits are. (eg: Don Lothario's thought bubbles kept showing the noncommital icon so I knew he had the trait before my sim "knew")
  • Okay, new one here. My Sim is *constantly* thinking of a red sports car. This started after I moved her to a lot with the 'child's play' trait, and she has the 'childish' trait, so I'm thinking it means she wants to play with toys.
