One time I had a sim who was like 110 or something and was seriously making me wonder if the game was glitched. It got to the point I was calling her a Highlander! Anyway, I had a party thrown for her grandkids birthday and some of the non-heir family was invited over, all was going well and everyone was having fun, then just as the kids blew out the candles, she just dies. Right in the kitchen, in front of the whole family, drops dead, everyone stops clapping and cheering and it becomes so darn depressing. It's like "Hey, happy birthday!....oh and grandma just died!"
All I could think with that and some of the others was, you are seriously dying *now*? You couldn't go before the birthday, or after it...you had to go and just do it now?
I guess she was like "It's not a proper party unless somebody dies, so....see ya!" -thud-
> I do get sad sometimes, certainly if they where born in game and I watched them grow up, then yeah I get upset. But most of the time I actually get kind of angry I guess, because quite often in my legacy plays through the years, an elderly sim will die during a birthday party.

wow thats weird
Haha. Seriously it's not a proper party until someone dies. I had this happen at a bachelorette party - - - - like seriously?! lol
Sometimes I'm over it in seconds, and frustrated that the rest of the family mourn for the next few days, and other time it's a case of "nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"
As happened when my fave sim caught himself on fire, and died.
He came back as a flamey ghost who bathed all the time. :/
I'm sorry @Lozzomatic but that made me laugh XD
For me it depends on the sim I've had some that I got watery eyed over seeing Grimmy coming to collect them, others I edge them closer to Grimmy's calling. And some times it's just funny.
Then I regret my decision of switching the aging back to normal after they die, and I miss them.
I remember killing one off once, because he was turning into a really awful sim, like just the worst. Like he was happy when his daughter died, I didn't like her much but I was still sad for her to die a bit because her family was sad but like he was her dad and he was happy. Everybody else was around the body crying but he was just walking away with a big grin on his face. But he'd been one of my favourites for a long time... so I refused to look at the screen while he was dying because I just couldn't watch... and then regretted killing him off. >.< I'm so emotional and I get too attached to these stupid pixel people.
If it was a Sim I liked, my reaction would be something like, "OH NO WHY" (even if they died of Old Age). If I didn't like them, I'd either just shrug or even chuckle a bit (depending on how strong my dislike of them was).

I own the TS3 Store as of 12/11/16 (sort of. It's complicated)
The first one was this sim born in game to a townie family and right from the first time my legacy family's first born met him, he was a...I can't actually say the word as this is family friendly, but it sounds like 'Punt'....yeah. He would argue with him, slap him, kick the trash can over...he even flirted with the first born's girlfriend, although she did refuse his advances and slap him! Nice one! So, throughout their life, this guy was just a bane of my, and their (non) existance in the game. Then while the legacy family where having a party (without a grandparent dying!) I get a pop up saying that the guy had just died. I think he was hit by an asteroid or something, but it certainly wasn't old age!
The other one was a woman who kept trying to flirt with a different legacy heir, and usually I'd keep my eye on her and him if they were in the same room, and each time she'd try to flirt with him, I'd 'X' it out. However, this conniving little cow was determined to keep doing it, and one day while they where at a friend's house I didn't know she was invited over too. So I was focused on getting their kid back home happy, switched back to the parents for a bit and saw this devious witch planting a kiss on him (that 'heat of the moment' one from University) Oh, my GOODNESS! His wife was in a tizzy, he slapped her and generally told her off, but the damage was done. The relationship was a little rocky for a while, but it was this -bleep's- fault. Then she 'accidentally drowned' in their pool...I wonder how that happened?
Wow, long post...but yeah, I'm only happy if it's an annoying/ devious sim. Although there was one time a sim randomly died of old age in the public toilets and pulled a funny face. All I could think was "That's how Elvis died...had several number ones, but it was a number 2 that killed him!"
