    I just started playing Sims and these are probably stupid questions, but here's what's happening:

    I have a home with 2 trash cans and a garbage disposal under the sink, too. There is a closed garbage can in front of the house. The sims USED to throw things away in the trash can, but now, they're just accumulating on the floor and getting nasty Whenever I ask a sim to clean something up, they try to bring it to the trash can and then do an angry dance in front of it and then put it back down. I've tried deleting and rebuying trash cans to no avail. I hired a maid but she did the same angry dance with a funny thought bubble with black specks in it, and couldn't throw it away. SO I want to know, how can I throw trash away? I did searches about trash on message boards but they were all about garbage cans getting knocked over and mine isn't knocked over.

    Also, I was wondering if there's a directory of thought bubbles posted somewhere, because I can never tell what's ****ing off my sims just by looking at the picture.

    Thanks!

    Drenched, not sure if this is your problem, but the trash bins fill up after a while. Try clicking on one of the bins with one of your sims and see if they get an option to empty trash.

    Trash bin, not trash destroyer!
