Have you seen grouchy Sim kids rub their feet on the carpet and give their parents (or others) a static shock?


Is it just grouchiness that allows that? I've only seen it done by one Sim in the game. That's her in my avatar. She got stuck in that position and walked around with her brows furrowed and pointing at everyone she was interacting with. I've been trying to reproduce it ever since. I keep all personality types in my game. Some even have no niceness at all. IIRC, the girl in my avatar had about a 4 niceness.



I don't know, actually.  It had been a very long time since it had happened, and then within the last 2 weeks I saw it happen again.  The child in question only had one nice point, so I assumed that was the determining factor.  He also had full playful points, which makes for a grown-up prankster, so maybe that played in as well.  My assumptions may well be full of crap  ;D

Have you seen your bird freak out when a wolf is in the room? Cats don't seem to bother them like they did in Sims 1, but have a wolf where they can see it and they go nuts.

The birds don't seem to freak simply when they see a cat, but when a cat sits by the cage and is watching the bird (it actually comes up in the queue as 'watch', if I remember correctly), then the bird completely freaks. It's quite funny. I don't think the cats actually hurt the bird, though. (I never let wolves in the house, but a few of my houses have cats and birds, and I've definitely seen this reaction from the bird :))

magicmoon - the kids can only do a static shock with the Maxis rugs. 

It doesn't work with echo's rugs.  I rarely use Maxis rugs, so I rarely see a child shocking anyone.

I heard that dogs will play with the water wiggler, but I don't currently have any in my game, so need to check that out.

This is extremely useful because it will boost their hygiene without your need to intervene, making them almost as self-sufficient as cats, particularly if you place it such that it is favored as their primary source of fun. Too bad it doesn't work like that in real life, as the only thing that happens if you try that in real life is that your entire house smells like wet dog!

Grouchy kids will do it autonomously, but you can direct any kid to do it if you have a Maxis rug in the house.
