So, I haven't been on much lately...playing the game when I am not doing that whole work thing. But Wednesdays are my day off and I am always up for a challenge for my sims. So, I have decided to create a legacy family that is defined by impossible wants. Like the one I have been working on forever...having one sim obtain all six degrees from University...still working on that one. Yes, I will have a yard full of Platinum graves when I am done...that is the goal! Ten generations of hard as heck sims to please!
Is there a support group for Simming Addiction? I think I need it...

Pillow Fight or Text Another Sim who happens to be a newborn baby -- great, but the target does have to be quite a bit older first.
Marry a particular sim -- one to whom your sim is already married. Alrighty, can do that, but they would have to break up/divorce first and then get back together and remarry. That could be tricky.
Register for Uni on a sim who is currently at Uni -- hmm, mind if we finish up the current term first?
Then we have a few that I have no idea how to approach, even theoretically, other than dismissing them as silly. For example,
Learn How to Drive (or teach your teen how) -- when the teen has already learned how to drive, has the certificate on their wall, and is happily motoring all over town in their own car. Guess I could use a mod (MC) to have the teen "unlearn" their driving skill and start over, but that sure seems like a lot of fuss and bother. Someone at MTS suggested this one means their parents are old enough to have forgotten (most) everything in the way of recent events including the time spent teaching Junior how to drive. Sadly, it does happen. But I don't see any way to proceed with that one the EA way, without mod usage.

And we thank Nraas and crew so much for fixing EA/Maxis's oversights!
The one I get the most is marry so and so and they are already married to each other! Silly sims! I love them anyway!
The Cowboy and the Mermaid
I never get credit for that one, even when wished for before the teen has learned to drive.
I also had one where the gardener sim wished to grow a particular plant, and I had lots of them in the garden, but that sim didnt actually plant the seed, so I'm guessing that's why it didnt trigger.
Playing families that large, and spread out among NRaas Traveler mod connected worlds as I like to do, is where I learned that a family reunion (love those!) is better off having representative members of the extended family invited and show up. If you want to see the definition of lag, try arranging and managing a wedding or other kind of get together with 60 or 80 sims on the active lot!

I have an impossible want right now - but one of my own: In Monte Vista were I played Erika Lin, worked her up a to level 10 in her premade job, skilled her up in several areas and went about town to meet the neighbors. My plan was for her to be single, so I had not done any romantic interactions necessary to trigger any inclinations; but then she met Florence Taylor whom I thought fitted her very nicely, so they became friends, and I switched over to that household to do the same levelling with her premade job and adhering skills. My problem now is that they are not 'attracted' to eachother, and I have tried all I could think of: had various same gender romantic interactions controlling each household, and they have hearts with lots of other townies; gave them both LTR Attractive and Eyecandy; they are both at level 10 in rabbithole work as well as several different skills; both are rich beyond 75000; they both went to the spa for tan and manicure, had clean clothes and showers before meeting up, I even changed (temporarily) Florence traits to fully match Erika's, and Erika's sign to match Florence's (although I am not sure the latter is advisable in unmodded game). I have celebrity system turned off and did not change their life state, they have no other romantic interests. The only thing I can think of to do now, besides giving up the project, is making them richer than 150 000 simoleans, giving them the two extra matching traits through UL, and turning on the celebrity system making them both famous (this I am a little reluctant to do, it is not that fun). Impossible (and for Erika and Florence non-existent) wants!
