New Object (ready for this)
A giant pair of scissors for your Sims to run with. Really increases Fun
motive. Funny animation. The object does warn that object is not for kids,
so guess what's next. I have a direct line to the Grim Reaper, so if an
accident happens.....

I downloaded it and gave it to a Sim to play with and she died immediately.

I quit without saving, did it again, and got the same results.

Does playing with the thing always result in instant death? Not much
fun there, unless you definitely want to get rid of a Sim, and fast.

On the other hand, while it says "not recommended" for kids, I can't get
kids to even play with it. The option isn't permitted. Bummer.

Not even an animation of an impalement either. The sim just puts the
scissors down and flails about and dies. Lame.

I've only had one SIM play with it and she ran around for quite some
time with and didn't die, didn't give her much excitement though, seemed
a pretty pointless task to me.

Yesterday I had ANOTHER sim die after running w/ the scissors. She looked at
her hand in pain and then fell dead lol

It seems like all my female sims die w/ the scissors. I had a couple
pregnant ones play with it and they died almost instantly.

Do you get a different colored Ghost from this death?

I am not sure. But depending on how they died, they will act
differently. Drowing death ghosts will leave puddles (blue, I think).
Death by flies the ghost will *clean*. Death by starvation, they will
raid the fridge. Things like that.

Just curious to know what a death by scissors ghost would do.

Death by CowPlant is a Fluorescent green.
