The problem with TS4 whims is the fact they may roll the same one over and over though you just filled it. It's as if the game doesn't know you already filled that one. And it never really goes with what is happening to your Sim or going on with your Sim. TS2's wants did make more sense, but they also rolled the same ones too often, too. But TS4's really Don't make sense. A loner shouldn't want to hug anyone. :D
ETA: One day I just sat and cancelled one, it came back over and over as soon as I cancelled it. I do mean like fifty times. There's nothing in that bag, nothing. It's no more than a handful.
