    One of the biggest features of TS4 was their ability to multitask. I thought it might be fun to focus on those unexpected multitasking failures , see what silly things our Sims have done . Let's try to keep it light hearted. Pics or text or both!

      I admire you guys who can have things like this happen in your game and you get a kick out of it. Personally, these things frustrate me. I don’t enjoy stuff not working as it should.

      I feel you @Chazzzy I think it's me trying to find the brighter side of things. Yes it should work perfectly all the time but sometimes these things happen. It's like when Sims just blend together after coming out of class or when they walk through each other or when they can't route properly around the house and walk through objects or doors. It should not happen but it does unfortunately. Is it a deal breaker for me no. Sometimes you just take the good with the bad.

      I like when my Simmie goes for a jog while carrying a full plate of steak.

      I think this is the funniest multitasking 'mishap' I've ever had in my game. "Look Ma, no hands!" lol

      I don't know if I'd call it a mishap though, you'd have to be quite talented to do that without missing the target and making a mess. o.O

      You say mishape, my husband would claim honed skill. I wonder if this is why boys always miss? :D

      LOL Yep, I think mine would as well and you have a good point with the latter. Perhaps Eddie's solved that age old mystery for us! ;)

      Sometimes when my sims talk in a bathroom, there's always a chance that one of them gets naked and goes into bathtub or sits on the toilet. Relationship doesn't matter here (so a sim could do that when they are talking to their new friend).

      There was that one time my Sim was holding their dog and sat down and had a conversation at the dinner table.

      It's less multitasking misshaps that inspire me, but clipping errors. Many a fling between my sims has started when one clipped into the other in a cute way. Often those romances are short-lived, but recently a marriage has been broken up, because the clipping error suitor turned out to be a much better fit for the woman than her husband.

      I should have taken a screenshot. Saw a glass of some drink floating sideways above the toilet. Didn't have time to set it down anywhere except in midair, I guess. When you gotta go you gotta go! :D

      While cooking, Teresa Calhouni was multitasking staring at that business card holder thingy for inspiration. Not sure how that would help with cooking, but apparently it worked and she made an excellent meal.

      Actually @Bearpal64, as many cat owners will tell you, something like the above is not uncommon in real life (or maybe that was your point?)

      As a cat owner I agree but it was just interesting cause I didn't know they could sit and hold a pet like that especially using the toilet at the same time lol.
