Mr. Humble

Since many of you have installed Free Time by now, I'm sure you've become pretty used to Mr. Humble, if not a little annoyed by him. If so, you might enjoy this small amusement from my latest play session. Mr. Humble didn't sneak away so quickly this time.







Oh, look! He's complaining that he can't move, because SOMEONE placed that present in his way. He was trapped there for hours, until someone finally collected it.




Mr. Humble just can't see a way out of this one.

He couldn't just pick it up, or step over it. No, that would be far too easy.

Silly sims.

I love when they get stuck because of the smallest things. Or, even better, when there's absolutely nothing in front of them. Those are the best.

Since I don't have Freetime can you enlighten me as to who Mr. Humble is?

*sigh*

Poor Mr. Humble. And, why would he step over it?! Its MUCH more productive to stand there and whine about how he can't move than actually do something about it. ;)

Hahaha, that happened to me yesterday! He just ended up disappearing, though. I just think he didn't want to meet my zombie sim. "Oh no, the zombie's coming near me! TELEPORTING POWERS ACTIVATE!"

She didn't even get a welcome wagon or an invite downtown. XD

Bwahahahaha! He's such a genius! :P

He actually almost destroyed one of my "families" by accident. I was playing my "preschool lot" (the one I built for the simstoryteller challenge #5) and that dumbass somehow placed the box in front of one of the little kids.

Since I was busy taking the pics for the challenge, I didn't notice that one of the kids was trapped until I got that message from the social worker because his temperature was off the charts. I almost got all my "students" taken away :P.

Gotta love Mr. Humble!

I tried to fence him in once but he just disappeared eventually. Boo!! :P

Excellent. He was his own undoing. His is just so...creepy.

Am I the only one who finds hi annoying? I don't want all my sims to have the best computer. Some of them are not that rich...!

Sofie I would either sell the computer for cash,($1000)...or switch it for an older looking model to fit your sims lifestyle and decor, which costs the same amount. You may also send it off to another one of your sims as a gift.

He did the same thing when I was playing the Singles girls in Strangetown, when they lived in one of those little houses already made.

I was going to see if he died if I kept him there long enough, but I let him go free. He won't be so lucky next time!

Now, the funny thing about Mr. Humble is he is supposed to be an employee of EAxis! Now I bet he regrets volunteering to be the guy who sends the previews of Sims 3 to every Sim house, after hearing how much people think he's annoying. Either that, or he's happy about it in some strange sadistic way.

I do like getting the expensive computer though. Usually I just have my sims keep it, but it really helps if I don't want them to have a computer.

Off to try a Mr. Humble experiment... **cackles wickedly**

Have you ever seen Angry or Confused Humble? I just love when he comes out of the shadows of the street corner and looks SO MAD that he has to deliver another present.

" This is the third one this week! Does she ever stop making Sims!?" :P
