Forgot how irritating the Sims 3 is.

It takes 20 minutes to pee. 30 minutes to brush teeth. Opening the fridge and removing something requires 4 minutes of my day.
Walking to the front door is two whole minutes. Driving to work is half an hour and its literally next door.
On the other hand, I can exercise for 5 hours and not get tired or dirty. And stealing the neighbors junk is always loads of fun.
Am also pretty grateful for the 6 hour work shift and daily paychecks.
But reminding my dude to constantly put his food in the trash is really tiresome. Also I dont like theres no way to stop someone from stealing junk in MY house even when I'm standing right there.

And the crashes. Game starts to get glitchy when you've been with a particular sim for too long and despise all the advice on the interwebs to clear my cache, it doesnt help at all.
Sims 4 is much smoother and considerably more stable, but they took out a bunch of gameplay options. The bastards.
Also both games have too much DLC and not enough core content. Dont bother with either unless marked down 75%.

Oh, and just like real life, most of the good jobs are not found in the paper. You need to apply directly.
Unlike real life its entirely possible to earn a living on your computer from day 1 with no experience or training. Buying property is ridiculously easy and always turns a profit.

One of the loading screen messages is "Calibrating social distance". I thought it was amusing.

As soon as I became a master thief I got arrested. My dude actually went out of his way to go find the cop and jump in his car.
