Throw a stink bomb?
I haven't heard of anyone doing that... ever. Unless it was in Sims Theme Park when those little bastards would drop my park revenue because they put a stink bomb in my gold-furnished toilets.
Bastards.

If you think about it in context of the other things you can do, they really should have called it Sim 3: 1980's Movie Expansion Pack.

If I still had all the old games I wouldn't have bothered, but I picked up Sims 3 alone and it still has the magic, and the integration of a real time town occurring all around you is really well done. It may be somewhat distanced from serious gaming these days, and I hate how few items you get with the base game; but it's hard to get enough of the formula.

If only the expansion packs weren't mostly gimmicky japes into some kind of alternate reality for a short while, coupled with mostly themed items rather than real progressive changes to the gameplay.

@Haggard
and by 'still has the magic', I'm not referring to the expansion pack for the original game. You definitely cannot adopt dragons and duel love rivals..

"We went to our fans for what they wanted"

BS. This is the LAST thing EA does.

Damn, I hate kids. Just give me a University expansion and all will be forgiven.

Just because you succeed in Sim University doesn't mean you will succeed in University... especially if you're spending your University time playing Sim University.

I would buy that Sims game. I would randomly change graduation requirements and make sure that a class and its pre requisite are in the same semester and that the higher level course has only 10% of the seats. I will call it "Broken Dreams University" and then laugh.

For the world's worst teenager, go watch "World's Greatest Dad" starring Robin Williams.

And for the world's greatest dad, go watch episodes of "Full House" starring Bob Saget.

I think that the world's worst teenager goes to my school. Last night, he slashed 46 tires on the school buses because he was gonna fail and not get to join the marines. I'm being dead serious.

I kind'a wish there'd be a way to play one character in an entire family, so I don't have to annoyingly micromanage everyone in said family - or create a single loner or a boring couple. I want to be able to create a big, crazy family and watch what goes on without my help.
