Three last questions, I swear this is it
KnowitallSim:
1. What's the current status of alien pregnancy and family trees? Will the Pollination Technechian appear in the family tree or not? This changes like every EP...
2. What's the quickest and easiest way to horribly mess up your game?
3. My one sim has had this appear over her head a few times, usually while sleeping. What does it mean? (please ignore the suit of armor on the sim and sucky couch)
Alright...bye ???

1. Dunno *Punts question to more awesome modders*
2. Quickest and easiest? Probably moving a whole bunch of occupied lots to the lot bin in one neighborhood and plunking them down in another. Not sure if that's the most immediately and obviously destructive way, but it'll bugger your game up real good with next to no effort. :p
3. That's a bug dating back at least to Uni and a possible sign of impending FBVFOS, if I remember right. Something about the objects.package being borked because the game tried to write to it, which is a Very Bad Idea. The remote control car could cause it. The solution was to replace objects.package with a clean copy, write-protect it so that the game could not commit such asshattery, and avoid the remote control car.
Later I seem to recall people having problems with other stuff in the game messing with objects.package (Mrs. Crumplebottom becoming a vampire was a big one, I believe) but I'm not sure whether the symptoms were the same and I think it was fixed in some patch or other.
What EP's do you have installed? It'd suck if that bug was resurrected by some new Maxis stupidity in BV...

I'm sorry, I can't.

I agree with Amberdiceless - downloading and installing occupied lots and putting into your hood, or transferring sims from one hood to another is an excellent way to almost effortlessly explode a neighbourhood.
As for the thought bubble with the ziggy lines, that implies that the above VBT may have already been done, or at the very least, that your armoured sleeper is remembering unknown or unlinked sims. This can be a sign of impending DOOOOM!. However, it may simply be garbage memories. Try using the Lot Debugger to nuke anything that's broken and clear gossip and garbage from your sims. This may help.

I have never used the remote control car (ALWAYS delete it) and Crumblebottom is fine.
I have every EP and every stuff pack installed and a minimum of hacks. (Like 2... :P)
