Meterstick Jim - The Sims 3: The Funniest Patch Notes

The Sims 3 is renowned for its eclectic and often hilarious gameplay, diligently augmented by developers who strive to keep the game balanced and glitch-free. However, some patch notes stand out for their sheer absurdity. Here's a look at some of the funniest patch notes that have graced this beloved game.

Patch Notes:

1. Kleptomaniac Sims can no longer steal subway stations from Lots
   Previously, Sims with the kleptomaniac trait could walk away with entire subway stations, which was obviously a bit too chaotic even for The Sims.

2. Sims can no longer woohoo in the elevator with a Sim who is on a different floor
   The laws of physics—and privacy—finally catch up with randy Sims.

3. Grim Reaper will no longer be prevented from reaping souls due to band affiliation
   No longer will deaths be delayed because the Grim Reaper is busy playing the bass guitar.

4. Fixed a tuning issue so that Sim no longer attempts to have babies with child Sims
   This critical fix prevents disturbing and illegal actions from occurring within the game.

5. Wish to have babies with a child no longer appears
   This eliminates the potential for similarly inappropriate behavior.

6. Sims who are on fire will no longer be forced to attend graduation before they can put themselves out
   Prioritizing a diploma over dousing flames is a thing of the past.

7. Baby Sims will no longer become stuck in the form of a young adult
   The glitch whereby baby Sims transition to adults without an intermediate growth stage has been addressed.

8. Sims no longer have a secret desire to skinny-dip with mummies
   This ancient love of undressed Sims and their bandaged companions has been curtailed.

9. Sims can now hit a meteor, in which case everyone will run out before the collision unless it is a school, of course. In that case all will die
   The odds of fatal celestial events can be mitigated by simply not being in a school building.
