For pete's sake, nerf the "grieving" moodlets already!

It gets so bothersome. My current sim had aspirations that require socializing with other sims. It feels like they have at least 2-3 friends die EVERY DAY.

You want to put a powerful +5 sad moodlet or whatever when a Sim's parent or child dies? Sure, I'm down with that. But any time any Sim they've ever met (they have high charisma, so they basically become best friends with everyone they meet) dies? It makes the game borderline unplayable.

While we're at it... burnout. Dear lord, a single "work hard" shift shouldn't cause burnout. I'm fine with the game mechanic in principle, but maybe have it so that once you hit "clear mind," you can't burnout for 48 hours or something.
