    @icmnfrsh I don't think it's a joke :smiley:

    I'm sure it isn't, but I'm still in disbelief that we have an icon like, well, this
    Don't manhandle the urchin. He's not for sale. FIND YOUR OWN! - Xenon the Antiquarian, Dragon Age II

    Race Against the Clock: Can your elder sim turn back the clock before their time runs out?

    Looks like a beetle and the top half of a heart. The antenna are curved around almost forming a heart.

    It's a love bug. lol

    I’m like 99% sure this is a joke, simply because we’re not in the next quarter yet.

    The only thing I can think of is maybe a Stuff Pack that offers run down, dirty furniture and items, which may have bugs appear etc. for those who want more run down gameplay.

    Or it could be “cheap home stuff” or something.

    But I’m pretty sure this is a joke, because the icon usually shows the gameplay object (or one of them) and I don’t think an insect can offer anything of value.

    SimGuruGraham updated his profile picture where he usually shows a Stuff Pack icon and it shows ... a cockroach? Dangerous Stuff? What do you think?

    Wouldn't it have to be for the adventure pack or whatever though, since isn't that and Laundry day all that was announced for this quarter? Do they usually make things that aren't shown in the teasers? I know it could be something for the future, I just find it odd for them to tease something before we've gotten everything from the trailer.

    I'd be fine with that, but a cockroach wouldn't be my first choice for an icon :D

    Maybe it's a Little Critter SP on the horizon? The Adventure GP icon is a Mayan Mask so the beetle/cockroach icon has nothing to do with the upcoming GP. That's the only thing I could think of, plus I don't think it would be a Danger SP, because SP's typically add 1 to 2 gameplay objects. A caged pet SP could be doable if it's similar to the collection of frogs that's in the game. Our sims could have pet hissing cockroaches, tarantula, and scorpions- something that we've never had in a Sim's game before, along with other caged pets like- iguana/gecko, turtle, snake, parrot, hamster, rabbit, and guinea pig.

    Gamepacks use a blue color icon. SPs use Green.

    Somebody on Twitter said they found the icon on google images for some bug extermination company.

    So @SimGuruGraham might be just trolling.

    {Pic removed}

    The icon actually looks like a fire beetle with the long curved antennae even though it's probably clipart used by the exterminator.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly.

    If you look at other Fire Beetles on Bing or Google, you'll see other examples.

    At anyrate I hope we're not reading into this. :smile:

    The Company name is "Axis" (one letter away from Maxis)... Seems eerily coincidental.

    I do now believe we're just being trolled... but it is also of note to say Brindleton Bay was our last world and the company is described 'Bayside Region Pest Types.' Very silly. I do wonder why or how Graham stumbled upon it.

    Since it's an extermination company logo, I think he's trying to send the message that they're exterminating bugs ie. the team is working hard on patching bugs.

    OMG. I suffer of katsaridophobia. Everytime I'll see this icon I go hyperventilation. WHY THIS? WHY??? Gonna die!

    Please don't let it be bug collecting.. And bugs aren't exactly my hope of a small pets pack so not that either.

    Here is the site where Graham got his icon from:
    https://www.axispestservices.com.au/types-of-pests

    There are also other icons

    Either that or he could just mean that they are trying to fix bugs that came with "Laudry Day Stuff"?!

    He could be just trolling us, but there's still some hope that this is actually a clue to the next pack...

    Probably nothing fancy. It could just be plain stuff pack that adds rusty-grungy-rotten furniture and what not to make some sims house very cheap and low class with teared down sofas, kitchen appliances with grime texture, and probably a new death: death by flies or other less close (and the least interesting) to that gameplay feature that involves bugs/cockroaches.

    Maybe Graham just wanted to "bug" people.
