One thing I keep seeing Sims talk about, and I'll see it as an invisible memory in SimPE owned by Lilith in a lot of my sims' memories, is Lilith getting busted for sneaking out. This apparently happened before the game starts because she has a memory of sneaking out with Dirk and getting busted, but even all these [sim] years later, people are still talking about it. I've seen them talk about affairs, but no one ever gets upset, they just think it's so hilarious. But most of the time they gossip about stuff like burnt food, passing out, peeing, and even getting into private school. At least that's what it looks like, when you see one sim's face followed by the Private school icon, then the same face again, although that would be a positive memory.
Bragging works the same way, but a sim will pick a positive memory to share with the other sim, and if they are friendly towards them, they will react positively. They like to brag about meeting someone new or making best friends with someone, or getting into private school.

I once had a sim brag about having an accident at a party. Perhaps this is some Maxian idiosyncracy?

Weird. I sure wouldn't go around bragging about something like that. I had a teen have an accident at a party once, and he cried and cried. The other sims (namely his parents and siblings and a few of his sister's friends) gossiped about it for weeks, till everyone in town knew about it. Maybe he figured he might as well beat them to it?

I never really pay much attention to what they gossip about - their darn green thing always gets in the way anyway!

Yeah, I've seen them a few times, and I always feel bad for them. It's interesting when you said gold, I thought about gold aspiration, but if a plumbob is gold, it would actually mean they are in a bad mood. Kind of the opposite of what you'd think.

Yeah. We should have a REAL gold plumbob though, like the platinum one!

Perhaps it would be confusing!

My sims congratulate each other on having accidents. Maxis is weird. |

They do seem to have difficulty telling good memories from bad ones. Once had a family sim sobbing for days about getting abducted by aliens (during my "make six guys and have their entire lives revolve around trying to get abducted" period, with a family that I had intended to make two family and four knowledge but accidentally made the knowledge all fortune instead) and one of his fortune housemates came over and congratulated him about it. Then he went back to crying.

The congratulate thing is so wierd anyway! If you get a sim to flirt madly, kiss up arm make out. leap into arms. then stop to sort someone else out, you look again, and they're busy congratulating each other! A couple wake up in the morning and instead of going for that early morning pee, they congratulate each other!

Well, I got TwoJeffs' fix for that too. He made one that cuts down on the congratulating and one that eliminates it altogether.

I might try that, although it does help to keep the relationships near maximum!
