Bubble blowers
DuckSpeak:
Hmm forgive me for my bottomless stupidity(TM, 1945) but what exactly is the function of the bubble blower in RL? (Yes, I know it's an object in Sims 2...)
Kitiara:
Does it have to have one? This is a game. Not all objects/concepts translate well to RL situations/behaviors.
witch:
A hookah is an eastern pipe for smoking hash through, usually the smoke passes through water to cool it and make it easier to smoke. Westerners use lots of other things instead of water, like ice, alcohol and so on.

Actually it may have started with opium not hash, I don't know.
Gus Smedstad:
Water pipes are also known as "bongs" here in the US and used to smoke marijuana. Particularly in college. I saw several in use when I attended Boston University. This is so clearly the derivation of the "bubble blower" that I halfway expected it to lower the Hunger meter.

Well, it should to a certain extent unless rohina is a giant conspiracy to cause mass confusion.
Thanks for the explanations. I'm aware of hookah pipes but thought they were only used with water + tobacco, hence the confusion. Plus, uhh... I'm not supposed to know about such things. ::)
