Jobs that give out promotions based on performance (you can't fool me game, I know that doesnt happen in real life!)
Yep, we have workplace politics. It's who you know and if your boss hates you... you don't stand a chance. I wish we had the sims system instead in real life.
Forget to grab something at the store? Whatevs, just give the fridge $10 and you're good to go!
Put a dollar slot in the front of the fridge like a vending machine. Lol. I preferred in TS2 how you actually had to go to the grocery store. It made much more sense and acted as a chore/errand, without it being too daunting.
You can walk around in public and have low hygiene (eew) and not be embarrassed/ashamed. Sims will be grossed immediately, but won't remember it in the future.
You can learn to drive a car, when you are a teenager, but it´s not really mandatory, because when you come of age, you automatically get a driving licence, no need for a test or something.
Well, wait a minute now. I once had use of a fridge like that when I moved back home briefly in between colleges. There was a never-ending supply of food in it and I never really had to give it any money, just helped myself to almost anything I could have wanted.
Asked my Mom about that fridge a few times later on when it seemed the ones in my apartments never worked that way. Funny, her recollection of how it stayed stocked up all the time didn't really match mine. (shrugs)

Rural Texas comes close to this. You have to take a test, but if you fail 7 times they give you a license anyway out of sympathy. At least, that is what we assume happened with Cuban housekeeper at the medical clinic where I worked in the '90s. Sweet little lady barely spoke English and couldn't drive to save her life, but they finally gave her a license.

I would be doing more than just walking out if my husband did that. I hardly ever get mad or yell at anybody, but that kind of idiocy would definitely do it for me.
Late for work? Don't have time to shower? Stinking up the entire lot and grossing out every sim in a one-block radius? Don't worry, just change your clothes in an instant and you'll be two-thirds clean again. Unless you haven't done laundry in a week. Then I don't know what to tell you.
Suffering from morning sickness? So nauseous that it wakes you up and you absolutely can't even think about doing anything else until you've puked your guts out? Walk all the way across the house, pick up the baby, put it down again (the crib is already occupied; nice try), and only then clutch your stomach and moan before running to the bathroom.
You meet someone attractive and hit it off. Things are going well, so you decide to kiss before saying goodbye for the night. The next day, you invite over your crush, who then proceeds to scream at you for cheating. You would never! And you're not even in a relationship! Look at the caption under the bar; it unambiguously says "romantic interest." What's the problem?! Turns out, when you were a teenager, you said you found another sim attractive. That's it. It was years ago, and absolutely nothing else ever came of it. But now this new crush has gone and told the entire town that you're a cheater, and they all believe it. Even your own family.
And then two days later your crush unilaterally decides to make things work, without asking what you want. Relationship restored!

I'm having a difficult time following this. Are you trying to say that's not how it all works in real life?

You discover you’re pregnant, nothing showing yet and immediately your body has this urge to lean backwards when you walk
@1need4kaffee Good one!

Just assume that every edit I make is because of typos.
Always "River McIrish" ...and maybe some Bebe Hart. ~innocent expression~
You have a criminal sim and every time they get caught by police they go to jail for the night. Not how it works in real life lol.
Also, I love how the criminals make no attempt to avoid or hide from the police. They are just in the same building at the same time.
When you have a policeman and a criminal living in the same house. That is what I call a conflict of interest!
There's a funny video like that here:

Hmmm...unfortunately I'm the ambulatory dishwasher in the house...in my household. ~sigh~

If there's a fire, just scream at it and do nothing else, unless you have the Brave trait.

I think he means the old girlfriend didn't have access to a backhoe and 10 gallons of off-road diesel ...
